yikes.


wellllll....at this point that might actually be a net positive for the team. But sucks for him...I guess...

 

[Derfel*]

... and of course the hit wasn't even reviewed...

 

[Mathil8]

Will this have any repercussions on his long term health/play?

 

[Winnipeg Jets]

No Little and Ladd for the rest of the season? I can't see this ending well apart from maybe grabbing us a higher pick.

 

[Guerzy]

Best of luck to Bryan in his recovery and hopefully there are no effects from this hit going forward into the offseason and next season for him.

On the flip side, finishing the season without Little and eventually Ladd in the line-up? yes, please.

[Mortimer Snerd]

That's good news. It could have been worse. G'luck Bryan.

 

[Moe Mantha]

Auston Matthews? Meet Paul Maurice.

... and of course the hit wasn't even reviewed...

Of course not. It was a love tap.


So inconsistent, the NHL is.

 

[cheswick]

Hopefully he'll be back before the first round is up. If not he'll join us for second round.

 

[Chewmasey]

Hopefully he'll be back before the first round is up. If not he'll join us for second round.

2nd round of what? The draft??

 

[Howard Chuck]

Wow, that is a dangerous injury. Good luck to Bryan.

 

[Gm0ney]

T6 is pretty mid-back...

 

[JetsFan815]

How serious is this injury in terms of long term health?

Let him heal up and train and be ready for training camp

 

[Guerzy]

Minus Ladd and Little what do the lines look like?

Ehlers - Scheifele - Wheeler
Stafford - Perreault - Armia
Burmistrov - Lowry - Thorburn
Lipon/Pardy - Copp - Peluso


ouch...

 

[JJ McCubbin]

Well that sucks. Hopefully Little recovers quickly and, more importantly, fully. At least this forces the team to shut him down for the season and he will have the offseason to continue to heal up. That's not the sort of injury you want to rush back from.

 

[Duke749]

Out two months because of a bad hit. NHL just likes to pretend it protects players but they still have a very long ways to go.

On a lesser note, that's my 4th long term injured player in fantasy this year.

 

[Evil Little]

Will he be back in time for the playoffs?

 

[koth]

Good job, Stralman, you ****ing ****.

 

[JetsFan815]

Minus Ladd and Little what do the lines look like?

Ehlers - Scheifele - Wheeler
Stafford - Perreault - Armia
Burmistrov - Lowry - Thorburn
Lipon/Pardy - Copp - Peluso


ouch...

Third line jeesus back in his rightful place.

8 weeks doesn't sound too bad or too serious

 

[Skiffer55]

Better than a concussion for his long term health.. as long as he heals up alright.

 

[JetsFan815]

Will he be back in time for the playoffs?

Should this change how Chevy approaches the deadline? We could use a C to put us over the playoff line? Boedker? Bozak?

Scary.

Hope Little recovers fine and doesn't have ongoing issues from this. He's still got a lot to offer the team.

Jets proving directionless enough that even with him and Ladd we'd still finish near the bottom. I'd say now we can expect a bottom 5 finish. I still thought we were too good of a team to compete with Edmonton, Toronto, Colombus, etc but now who knows.
