A Big Rumor about to be Settled Concerning David Reinbacher?

"Maxime Truman confided that the young defenseman (Reinbacher) has problems with both knees.

In fact, this is explained by the fact that he is suffering from Osgood-Schlatter disease, a "common cause of knee pain in children and adolescents". The disease causes the crumbling of cartilage and bone in both of his knees."

Contacted by TVASports.ca, the head coach of the Kloten club in Switzerland in 2022-2023, Jeff Tomlinson, denied the story, and this, after having made additional checks with the team doctor.

"When you sent me this message, I immediately frowned because I am familiar with this disease and it has never been discussed during the season with our doctor. I checked again with him and he was very clear: 'No, that's absolutely not it.' It was only towards the end of the season that we noticed a bit of inflammation in his knees, but it was attributable to wear and tear, as we gave him a lot of playing time."
