C/LW Jonathan Drouin - Halifax Mooseheads, QMJHL (2013, 3rd overall, Tampa Bay) II

BTW that knee-on-knee hit was in the first period and Drouin did return.

Thanks. I tuned in briefly and the pbp said they had video and would post it on the site later.

Hopefully it's just precautionary.

Drouin bounced back and then scored two goals. He's fine.

 

[The Sweetness]

Calder trophy winner Jonathan Huberdeau has something to say about that.

I'd be very surprised if Drouin does not become a better player than Huderbeau. And that is not meant as a knock on Huderbeau who is looks like he has a bright career in front of him.

Comprehension failure on my part. Sorry.

 

[DFC]

So fellow Lightning prospect Adam Erne hit Drouin from behind and may have injured him. Erne gets 5 and a game.

Drouin won't be returning to the game.

He hasn't returned for the bench in the second. Looking for details on an injury. He got cut and looked like he was shaking his head trying to get the cobwebs out while on the bench. Hopefully not a concussion. Stupid, stupid hit from Erne.

Edit: Has possible concussion-like symptoms. ****.

Damn, I hope he's okay.

 

[Patmac40]

Nick Sorenson just got the boot for a cross-check to the throat of Darcy Ashley on the Mooseheads. What a gongshow for such high-end prospects.

 

[Loffer]

Kids really seem to have fun there..

 

[The Nightman]

Here's the hit

 

[WeThreeKings]

Hurts the Mooseheads and Team Canada.

 

[Caspian]

Tampa should make sure Erne never plays higher than the ECHL. Bury him there for being a dumb ******.

 

[Macman]

When are they going to start throwing these clowns out of hockey? He knew who he was hitting and drilled him face first into the glass.

 

[VictorLustig]

That looked bad. Looked more like a potential neck injury than a concussion, not sure what's worse.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Erne's ****ing stupid. That **** isn't needed in the game.

The Mooseheads' Twitter did confirm it was concussion-like symptoms, FWIW.

You can't tell. Hopefully only a cut and sore neck and nothing more.

Edit: A concussion. *****. Hopefully only a minor one. And the kid will be back for the WJC.

Which you can get from a neck injury.

 

[sayheykid]

Ugh, Adam you imbecile. That's bound to get you high marks in the organization.

 

[Roz]

Which you can get from a neck injury.

True, but I'm still pretty sure it wasn't his neck. He got his stitches and then came back into the game before leaving for good a few minutes later. I think if they suspected a neck injury they would've stretchered him.

I think you give the player too much credit. In any event this is part for the course in junior hockey.

What a ****ing idiot, full speed into the numbers. I honestly agree with the guy who said just burry the dumb ass because of injuring their star prospect.

.......of which team Erne is also a top prospect. Yeah, that makes sense.
