that pretty much sums up my opinion too. An unfortunate turn of events that results every so often when such a fast paced and physical sport is played.
While I wouldn't go so far as to say it was Fanelli's fault, I don't think the hitter is totally to blame either. It's an inevitable kind of injury, like a skate blade to the (unprotected) back of the legs... The real miracle is that some of these injuries don't happen more often, but the truth is that nothing can/will be done until they do.
