As team physician Gery Büsser told the Neue Zürcher Zeitung, the 33-year-old forward had a headache. The Lions confirm on Saturday morning that he has indeed suffered a concussion and will miss today's game. Nilsson had been sidelined by a back contusion since November and was finally ready to resume playing on Friday.
Fabrice Herzog was also not in the lineup last night due to a back contusion. He is listed as day-to-day on the Lions' medical report. In 38 games for the Lions this season, Herzog has recorded seven goals and seven assists.
