Fanelli received the green light for full contact from his parents and he is continuing to be supervised by renowned concussion specialists Dr. Karen Johnston and Dr. Charles Tator. Neither doctor has given Fanelli full medical clearance, though he has passed the baseline concussion test as well as a battery of other tests.
I saw him practicing yesterday at forward (normally a defenceman) and he looked extremely good!
Glad to hear it! Congrats to Ben and his family. I remember watching him in his minor midget year with the Mississauga Senators, and thought he was an absolute stud on the blue line.
