Oda sits out of SOI Japan Tour

[Becki]

Such a talent but pity that he's such a headcase and now the injury. I hope he'll have his day on the rink before he retires.

Definitely hope he can finally win a medal at the WC soon

Now it's official that Nobu won't participate in All Japan (Nats).

His left knee which he injured in May and reinjured at TEB isn't recovering well.

Thanks for the update.

That's so unfortunate. He must be depressed. I always remember the year he lost for so-called "drunk driving" (a beer too many on a moped). I do hope he is refreshed and healed by the time off the ice. Best wishes for a full recovery, Nobu!
