Guelph Storm goaltender Cody St. Jacques could be done for the season.
St. Jacques flew home to Iroquois Falls last weekend to have an MRI on his ailing back in nearby Timmins and the results weren’t good.
“I’ve got two herniated discs and one bulging disc,” St. Jacques said in street clothes from rinkside Wednesday as his teammates practiced at the Sleeman Centre.
“They told me I have early degenerative discs, which is extremely rare for a 19 year old. My dad’s side of the family always had back problems, so I’m not surprised there was a problem with the discs, but I was surprised how bad it was.”
St. Jacques is waiting for an appointment with a surgeon in Hamilton who will evaluate how bad things are and whether or not he can do any more damage to his back.
“Until then I won’t be on the ice or doing anything too physical,” he said.
St. Jacques has played in 26 games for the Storm this season but hasn’t seen any game action since Jan. 2.
