Gardiner (hip) won't be in attendance for training camp and is slated to start another year on long-term injured reserve, Luke DeCock of the Raleigh News and Observer reports.
Gardiner (hip) has been given medical clearance to play and should be ready for the 2022-23 campaign, Sara Civian of The Athletic reports.
Was a quality asset in the offensive zone. Skated well due to an effortless stride. Had offensive ability, liked to join the attack and could quarterback a power play. Owned a projectable frame. Made a lot of bad mistakes with the puck and struggled to clean things up defensively. A bad back forced him to retire prematurely.
Long Range Potential: Mobile, offensive defenseman with defensive issues.
