Its my understanding that he was injured earlier in the season, healed and rehabbed in time for the Olympics and was then re-injured at the Olympics.
Now hes healed and rehabbed again in time for the playoffs significantly earlier than had been anticipated as he was projected to be ready for the second round.
Are we seeing the same thing over again? I know people can recover from herniated discs in all kinds of unlikely environments such as ancient middle-eastern pit-prisons, and Zetterberg likely had higher grade facilities, but hes not Batman.
