Fanelli Released From Hospital

((HT: CP))

Kitchener Rangers defenceman Ben Fanelli ((pictured, thanks CP)) gets to continue recovery from the monstrous check he took in an Ontario Hockey League game at home.

He was released from Hamilton ((Ontario)) General Hospital late Friday night.

Fanelli suffered skull and facial fractures from the hit Erie Otters forward Michael Liambas laid on him during an October 30 contest.

Fanelli had been in the hospital ever since, but his condition has improved over time.
The OHL came down hard on Liambas- giving him a suspension for the remainder of the 2009-2010 season.
Rangers COO Steve Bienkowski told The Kitchener Record newspaper that the team is hoping to arrange limited visits to the Fanelli home over the next few days.
And here's what started it all...
