Has there been an injury update on Vainio?

In the few games he played he looked a good player, but he hasn't played since mid November.

To my knowledge he's not been put on IR, so I assume the injury isn't likely to keep him out for 3 months or longer.

Was it the reoccurrence of an old injury or something new?

Fox mentioned him in one of the after match interviews, back "soon" I believe he said but no definite info, and Fox always keeps that kind of thing very quiet.

Genuine question.. Is there a non-Hockey injury list? Where if a player is injured in say a car accident or say falls off his bike lol, he can be replaced? Just listening to commentary on NFL Saints v Bucks and they were mentioning players on a non playing related list they are allowed to replace?

Thanks Mark, I must have missed that.

Hopefully he's not far off then, it would be good to have a spare so that we can rest players with niggles.
