Mike Smith suffering from post-concussion syndrome
NHL.com @NHLdotcom“We were hopeful that Mike’s symptoms would clear sooner and they haven’t, so were taking a conservative approach with him making sure he is 100 percent before he returns to the ice,” Lightning Executive Vice President & General Manager Brian Lawton said. “Although Mike would prefer to be skating and playing right now the appropriate course of action is to err on the safe side.”
Smith is working with the team’s medical staff on a regular basis on the rest, recovery and rehabilitation process. Before participating in any game activities, Smith will return to the practice ice when the team’s medical staff is comfortable with his progress.
