Moore underwent extensive examinations this week at the Cleveland Clinic as doctors attempted to gauge his recovery from the fractured neck and concussion he suffered on March 8, 2004, when he was jumped from behind and sucker punched by Vancouver's Todd Bertuzzi, reports the Associated Press. Results aren't expected for several weeks.

"I'm better than I was two months ago, better than I was six months ago, and certainly better than I was 17 months ago," said Moore. He is working out in the gym and on the ice but still experiences occasional wooziness and other effects from the attack. "The concussion is more of the issue, for sure," Moore added. "The neck feels pretty good." Moore's lawyer, Tim Danson, said Moore is motivated and determined to keep a positive attitude, even though his hockey career could be over. "There's a real sadness, a realization that, 'Oh, my gosh, my dream is being smashed.' But then he brings himself out of that and gets positive again," Danson said. Moore said he hasn't heard from Bertuzzi, privately or publicly. He has filed a civil lawsuit in Denver in which he has named Bertuzzi, former Canucks forward Brad May - who's now with the Avalanche - Canucks coach Marc Crawford, former GM Brian Burke and Orca Bay Sports and Entertainment, owner of the Canucks.

Moore has filed a lawsuit related to injuries he suffered after being attacked by Vancouver forward Todd Bertuzzi in a game last March. The lawsuit is not a surprise, but the list of defendants and the venue for filing are interesting, the Denver Post reports. The list of defendants includes Bertuzzi, Canucks forward Brad May, Canucks coach Marc Crawford, former Vancouver GM Brian Burke, plus the Canucks and the partnership that owns the team. The National Hockey League, however, was not included among the defendants.
