Injury Report: 2018-19 Avs Injury Thread

[S E P H]

It just seems so strange that Clark and Dater wrote like they had that info for ages (Cole and EJ's injuries) and decided to post it when Avs made that Soderberg trade.

Probably told them not to divulge it until after the draft

Maybe to not give anybody else leverage in Sodapop-discussions? "Oh, so you NEED a D coming back because of the long-term injuries to Cole/EJ? Well, we're not going to add a 3rd-rounder (that you'll piss away anyways) to the trade then."......

 

[Metallo]

That’s a blow for sure. No way we can trade Barrie for a forward at this point.

Seems like a much longer rehab than Varly's hip surgery, and he had more physical demands being a goalie with his style.

Very worrisome how Cole is gonna look after this. At least EJ is gonna be back sooner.

Maybe it'll be like Teemu's knee surgery and he'll look like a young Scott Neidermeyer

He’s gonna look like hot garbage this season. Double hip scope is very serious.

Double hip surgery for Cole IIRC

Problem with that is you have to have Teemu and Nieds skill set to begin with.

Contract is getting worse....

Yeah I'm not a doctor, but unless he has to wait for the second surgery, doesn't seem like the rehab should take that much longer. Unless the surgery/injury was more damaging.

Have you not seen those Hollywood movies where unskilled nobodies become superstars because of a surgery gone horribly right?

I saw one on Netflix where a kid got shot in the head, survived, but with parts of his phone implanted in his brain and it made him have super powers.

Pretty much the same thing that happened here.

Like Phineas Gage?

If Cole were missing his frontal lobe he'd take exactly 2 more penalties a year.

 

[henchman21]

Like Phineas Gage?

But with an iPhone!

 

[UncleRisto]

What if Cole comes back with RoboCop legs?

Played with a bad hip all playoffs and a broken foot in game 7. Never missed a game. Well done Mikko, great leadership.

Timmins is still not officially cleared for full practice per his interview today

Crappy!

Also didn't want to tell Chambers when his last negative symptom was. Though that seems to be how all players are advised to answer those kind of questions now.

Things are looking better, but it feels like we should still temper our expectations. Then we can hopefully be pleasantly surprised come September/October

Which one is that? Asking for a friend..

We ended up having a bunch of dudes injured at the end of those playoffs. I know that’s usually the case with teams, but it seems like we had more than our fair share.
