SCRJ's head coach Jeff Tomlinson on his way to full recovery

Currently, Jeff Tomlinson has only been taking his first steps since the surgery, the Südostschweiz writes. 23 hours per day, he remains in bed and each day he has to undergo countless examinations. Nevertheless, Tomlinson is on his way to recovery; the doctors are satisfied with how things have developed over the past week.

While his brother Darryl has already left the hospital, Jeff Tomlinson should be released from the clinic in a week's time if everything is going according to plan. Until he will be able to return to the ice it will probably take another month or two, the same source reports. "In the meantime, I'll just help as much as I can," Tomlinson says.
