Come back next year and tear it up.

Come back next year and tear it up.

He's so close to becoming an absolute monster. I really do hope he does tear it up.

 

[Nighthock]

I hate Dustin Brown. HATE.

 

[Alwalys]

This is just so bad. Of course we lose the player making the biggest impact on the series. Of course.

 

[themelkman]

This is bad, if this happens more, at some point will his knee not be able to heal back.

 

[SharksFan1]

This is what I was afraid of. I really it is not too serious and the Sharks are being very cautious because of his age and star potential.

 

[Adam Jones]

Now all over twitter -- DeBoer refuses to rule out Hertl for game 5, says "improvement every day". I don't know what to believe!

 

[alex716]

This is bad dream.

 

[Alwalys]

Another Sharks site reports torn meniscus, which can improve over time without surgery, but can also require surgery which would be season ending.

So that's consistent. Hopefully it improves enough for him to play and not risk (too much) further damage.

 

[SactoShark]

Probably so swollen [conditioned worsened on plane] they can't properly assess it [day-to-day] and they'll wait [not ruled out] until the swelling goes down [improvement every day].

 

[Internazionale]

It would be absolutely idiotic to bring him back in for looks like the last game of the year to further inflict more pain and damage. Shut him down.

 

[Satastic]

Ugh. So ****ty. His knee is starting to scare me and I hate it. **** Brown

Check out the link for more info, but it seems like it's treatable.

depends where it's torn and how bad

What team is he on? Sharks? Who is his doctor? Ting? Then it's life threatening I give him 48 hours to live.

What? Did DeBoer really say this? Gulitti is known for snarky comments, he's a real funny guy.

But the quotations lead me to believe DeBoer really did say this and it would be slander if he was quoted as saying that, despite not actually saying that.

So the Czech guy believes out for game 5 and out for the season are synonymous. He's not the only one.
