PowderhornhockeyLast night Wolves RW Guillaume Desbiens sustained a head and shoulder injury.
From the gladiatorsforum.com:
"Gwinnett forward Guillaume Desbiens will be out approximately three weeks after suffering a slight concussion and separating his shoulder during the Gladiators' 4-1 victory over the Florida Everblades Thursday at Gwinnett Arena. At 12:10 of the second period, Desbiens crumpled to the ice when he and Everblades' forward Jarret Lukin collided in the faceoff circle inside Gwinnett's zone.
Play was stopped for nearly eight minutes while medical personnel attended to the fallen Gladiator. "At first, he (Desbiens) couldn't remember what happened," Gwinnett coach Jeff Pyle. "But, then, it all started coming back to him. The good news is that he's fine."
While Lukin skated away unscathed Desbiens left the ice on a stretcher. Stitches were also applied to close a gash that opened up when his head hit the ice. To fill Desbiens spot, the Gladiators have signed Walker McDonald, a 6-2, 196 pound right winger who has played for the ECHL's Toledo Storm, Charlotte Checkers and Columbia Inferno"
We can only wish this fine young man well and a speedy recovery.
