    I heard out 9-12 months on the radio. Wish him a speedy recovery. Hopefully he stays close to the team.

    The contact was on the outside of the knee which puts strain on the MCL. So that was his best hope, but if it is severe enough the tear of the MCL can also tear the ACL. The impact of the contact I thought it could have been a tibia/fibula or MCL.

    MCL is on the outside of the knee, ACL on the inside. Very often the ACL when torn also tears the MCL, as in Albert's case I guess the contact was to the MCL, but was so severe it got the ACL too.

    Damn, I hope he makes it back to playing again...Modern medicine should take care of this though.
