Injury Report: Bobby Brink has hip injury during off-season workouts. Undergoes Surgery ; Out For Five Months (Jul. 26)

[swami24]

hip surgery at that young an age cant be good for a hockey player.

Better than an artificial cervical disc replacement.

 

[TheKingPin]

This is a lost season. Not even Scott and Fletcher can deny that. Hopefully he does well and gets back feeling good.

 

[Flyer lurker]

Why is it always players you care about and not Patrick Brown and Adam Brooks to miss 5 months.

Bats*** bad for Bedard is here!

 

[ponder719]

Again I ask, why do the Flyers exist?

To make sure Philadelphia never quite loses its edge of manic, boiling rage?

 

[DancingPanther]

I am once again reminding you the Flyers told Brink to "play big", and to facilitate this he started training too aggressively and hurt himself

 

[Hanover Fist]

Coots reinsured during rehab in 3,2,1……

 

[flyerslducks]

every promising prospect we have gets f***ed with injuries. Patrick, frost, brink...just so damn unlucky man. hope he recovers soon

Right, because hip injuries are so uncommon among hockey players.

Thompson missed 4 months last season

 

[Cody Webster]

The surgery was performed in Minnesota

By a doctor that is friends with Cevin

At the ripe old age of 21?

You’d swear they’re long overdue for some good luck, but it’s bad luck & bad news on endless repeat ever since the Covid pause.

The Flyers couldn’t even order a turkey sandwich without it somehow going wrong.

 

[deadhead]

This isn't the end of the world with Foerster and Wisdom also auditioning for the same (non-existent if Allison stays healthy) RW slot.
Marody will also probably get a long look at RW as well as center.

Brink could use more strength (b/c he doesn't shy away from dirty areas but can be pushed around) and hopefully as part of his rehab keeps building leg strength and explosion.

The important thing is to get him 100%, then get some ice time this year to prepare him for TC in 2023.

Still, you don’t like one of your top prospects missing 5 months with hip surgery at 21.

Fortunately, RW is probably the deepest position in the organization.
As long as he can completely recover, just sets him back half a season.

 

[Shrike]

Brink is from there.

Minnesota, Boston College and Kevin Hayes oh my

Irrational optimism causes delusion. I think that best describes you

 

[Kelmitchell2]

Even if we finished dead last we won't win the lottery, we'd fall out of top3 because we are cursed lol

 

[MorgantiDrinksBlood]

This. Worst team in the nhl in 2006-2007, we got JVR hahahaha, hawks go on to pick the greatest American hockey player ever at 1 and win 3 cups, if that isn’t Philly af please tell me what is.

I believe you and I discussed the risk of him bulking up too fast throwing things out of whack.

 

[GapToothedWonder]

Nah we will pull another Patrick, finish like 5th last win the lottery somehow pick the only player to not pan out in a stacked draft.

 

[Striiker]

Again I ask, why do the Flyers exist?

We’re being punished.

Bif, we have a knack

 

[Curufinwe]

It's weird that I haven't seen anybody complain that Brink didn't get the surgery right after the season ended, (i.e. before he was injured) when that's all I saw when Farabee got hurt during his summer workouts.
