Injury Report: 2012-13 Injury Thread

[MTP]

Shaw, Hossa, and Frolik all in the lineup tonight.

Excellent news, so our forward depth remains mostly in tact. I still want Morin called up for Sunday, though.

BB opposite Kane would be great.

According to csn you may get your wish.

BB moved up to second line and DC takes his spot on the third.

"Meanwhile, with Sharp sidelined, the Blackhawks switched up their lines a bit this morning. Bryan Bickell, who has been part of the team’s stellar third line, moved up to the second with Dave Bolland and Patrick Kane. Bickell finished Wednesday’s game with the second line after Sharp left. Daniel Carcillo, who had the game-winning goal on Wednesday, will be on the third line with Andrew Shaw and Viktor Stalberg. The first and fourth lines remain the same."

Hossa day to day will be looked at today

 

[Nothingman*]

So....a couple more weeks Sharpless you think?

 

[Bubba88]

think he'll be back in about 1 - 1 1/2 weeks

Hey guys, wondering if anyone knows if Hossa is playing tonight? This question is fantasy hockey related.

Not sure, no info has come out yet. My guess is yes, because these types of cloudy injuries with the Hawks tend to turn out to be nothing at all. But could just as likely be a no. Hard to say.

 

[ColdSteel2]

They just said he isn't skating. Doesn't mean he is out but isn't encouraging.

 

[Chris Hansen]

Damn. Would guess no, in that case.

Sucks to be going into a matchup with Anaheim missing two of the team's best four forwards.

 

[Hawkaholic]

What evens it out a little more...is that Perry won't be playing tonight. Also, we face Hiller tonight instead of Fasth who completely shut the door on us last game. Hiller is still a good goalie though.

 

[Bubba88]

Hossa is not serious upper body... my guess is he will be back by the weekend

Next game after tonight isn't till Monday... So with that being the case, I'm fine with him resting tonight even if says he is good to go.

According to ESPN today the word on Sharp is 2-3 more weeks.

[ColdSteel2]

Alright then, I think it is time for Morin. We need to find a better solution than Hayes.

 

[Nothingman*]

Yeah. And Carcillo/Bollig/Mayers plugs won't be quality patches for that long. I am guessing the collarbone was broken or it was a severe separation.

 

[Illinihockey]

Q said Hossa will not play Monday vs the Kings (shoulder)

 

[Nothingman*]

Saw that. Sucks.

 

[MTP]

Q said Hossa will not play Monday vs the Kings (shoulder)

Must be pretty bad for him to make the call three days in advance. Day to day my ass.

 

[Bubba88]

no reason to put him on IR --> day to day

 

[Ace Rothstein]

Don't players have to go on IR for only 7 days? If so, he should have been put on IR and someone called up. Especially if Q is only going to play Carcillo for 2 minutes per game.

Injury update - Now's a good time to ...

Apparently Hossa is unlikely to play against LA and Sharp isn't ready yet either. Carcillo for whatever reason is not getting ice time, hence I reckon, Hawks are in a great position to bring up one or two RFD players and see what they can do. In order of preference, I'm thinking one (or two) of the following: Morin, Pirri, Beach. This could also serve as a showcase in case Stan has any deals in mind before the TD (yeah right).

 

[Ben Eager]

-Injured players need rest (Sharp - Hossa)
-Hot start, not in danger of dropping out of top 2 seeds
-3rd line is clicking together, no point in breaking up line
-You know what you have in Carcillo, Mayers, and Bollig
Seems like the perfect recipe to bring a few guys up and see what they can do, but I still don't see it happening. I really hope i'm wrong. I don't think Q or management is as high on some of the prospects as most of us on the boards.

Today's newspaper indicates Carcillo's knee is not fully recovered, thus limiting his abilities and ice time. Not sure that I'm buying that.

Why not? It was pretty obvious that something was limiting his ice time.

Oh yeah I remember, you were one of those that concluded he wouldn't play another game with Hawks after his suspension/injury.

Anyway back on topic. Rest Sharp, Carcillo and Hossa and bring up the kids and see what they're made of. It doesn't look like RFD is the best place to develop.
