Not an expert, but these injuries really don't seem to be related to conditioning. Not sure if Kesler's hip issues could've been conditioned better, but very hard to speculate on that. Does anyone even know what's up with Rakell?

If I`m exausted I know I am sometimes not putting some pressure where I should or reacting a bit slower in some situations, depending what sports I am doing. But even this - if Ducks would be so tired then we wouldn`t win much games when healthy anyway, on the other hand.

But something seems fishy to me. I just don`t know what.

All they said about Kase was he passed the concussion tests but is out with an apparent head injury. Kinda contradicts what they've said

Yeah, I've been wondering about this. Maybe he's braindead and therefore can't have a concussion anymore.

Darren Dreger reported that Getzlaf is close but needs a few more tests to pass. He has more info than our beat writer of course.

Bob says he hopes Rakell plays in the vegas game, which means he will miss at least two more games.

Also said he thinks Getzlaf and Kesler will travel with the team on the road trip before Christmas which starts 12/14.

They said it’s a residual injury from colliding with a teammate (Ritchie?) at practice on Thanksgiving Day.

With how he collapsed while trying to get up, I don't know how he passed that test. Maybe concussion symptoms?

I'm obviously concerned for all of our players concerning concussions. But I'm really worried about Kase. I really hope this doesn't hurt his career. Him outplaying his draft position is a cool story that seems to be happening for a nice guy. Having his first solid year go this way sucks.

that's huge. we could have rakell getz Kesler and kase back in 2 weeks. we are getting close! it has been hard to watch our team get dominated in the form of possession and shots every game. the only thing keeping me watching is to see how our defense and goal tending holds up in the most challenging of circumstances and how some of the young/ fringe players will do such ad Roy, Wagner, grant, kase. all in all I think we are in a phenomenal spot. not too far behind in points, key players will be rested for playoffs, defense and goal tending look excellent, found some contributors in wagner kase and grant, Roy developed some confidence...im getting excited to think about the big boys coming back.

Yep, and it isn't his first or second time dealing with concussions or concussion symptoms either. Like you said, I hope it doesn't affect him all that much

I keep holding out hope that this team will get healthy and be able to fight back into a PO spot....but, im starting to believe this season is just not ment to be.

Hampus seems to have had a lot of niggling injuries the past couple of years. The wrist, something wrong with his leg in addition to the major shoulder problem in last years playoffs, the game he missed earlier due to a LBI and now a mysterious UBI.

Hopefully he’s not out long. That’s why trading Vatanen could come back to bite us, now we are going to have one of Beauchemin/Bieksa as one of our top 4 minute getters.

Upper body issue that will take some time? I hope that's not the shoulder flaring up again since he was ahead of schedule on it.
