I'm trying to imagine and I'm coming up with very little. If he had to have a cyst or something removed, he may have sutures or something that preclude such kind of exercise for a few days at the most. I'm not Dr. House, but beyond that I'm having a tough time. If only Dr. House were real... we could just send this kid to Princeton and figure out WTF is going on.

Impetigo is a common and contagious bacterial skin infection that is usually a minor problem, but sometimes complications may occur that require treatment. Complications related to impetigo can include deeper skin infection (cellulitis), meningitis, or a kidney inflammation (post streptococcal glomerulonephritis, which is not prevented by treatment). Impetigo often starts with a cut or break in the skin that allows bacteria entry. Impetigo is usually caused by "staph" (Staphylococcus) or "strep" (Streptococcus) bacteria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they're keeping him away from the locker room as a quarantine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From some of the journals I have read, there is an outside chance this could be a new form of Impetigo which has a MRSA component. Which if is the case, is a really nasty infection to treat. Of course this is all pure speculation and conjuncture on my part, but the idea of him not skating is probably more of a preventative quarantine action (as you mentioned) rather than some type of physical inability regardless if it is MRSA or not. Always some new to deal with around here ............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's cropping up more and more. This was a LONG time ago now, but I remember when they were afraid Michael Renberg might actually lose his hand when a scratch became infected with Locker room bacteria (presumably in his glove or on his skate laces). terrifying. Of course that may just have been the Maple Leafs crack training and med staff though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
