from the Pioneer Press,
Marian Gaborik has what the Wild are calling a “hip deficiency” and will require further medical tests before the team determines the treatment.
The Wild issued a short statement Thursday saying the injury was “attributable to overuse,” after the Slovak Ice Federation announced the team wouldn’t permit Gaborik to play for Slovakia in the world championships because of the injury.
Wild general manager Doug Risebrough said he doesn’t know how serious the injury is.
“I don’t know either way, so I don’t want to comment on it,” he said.
Risebrough said Gaborik has seen team doctors who are consulting with others to determine a course of treatment. Risebrough said Gaborik didn’t inform the team of any discomfort during the playoffs.

He didn’t complain about the hip because he wasn’t on the ice....you say he was? Oh, sorry, I thought that was Rolstons shadow just following him around.
