Kampfer Recovering, Milano Suspended

You can read about this many places, but we cited yesterday that it wouldn't be the last time we brought it up. So...

As reported by multiple sources, Michigan icer Steve Kampfer is recovering at his family's home in Jackson, MI. He is wearing a full neck brace for the next 12 weeks and will most likely miss the remainder of the hockey season. The good news is, he will make a full recovery and be back on the ice again. The bad news, at least for Michigan fans is that it will likely not be for the Wolverines, but for the Anaheim Ducks, whom Kampfer was drafted by in 2007. He will take a medical redshirt this season and probably go right to Anaheim for the 2009-2010 season.

As for Mike Milano, the senior walk-on running back who is the alleged perpetrator of the incident. He has be suspended indefinitely from the football team. Word is he attacked Kampfer from behind with little or no warning, and not an honest fight that it was first reported to be. If that is the case, not only does that make this whole thing worse for Milano, but it makes him a coward. If it were up this blogger, he'd never see the field again. This is a despicable act, and surely this guy is not worthy of wearing the maize & blue.

We hope for nothing but a speedy recovery for Steve Kampfer, and that he get's back on the ice as soon as possible.
