Umm.... if (god forbid) Helle gets injured 3 minutes into the game on Friday and we need to use a goalie in a meaningful divisional game - that’s why.I love Comrie, but in a situation like this where Helle is gonna be playing anyway why not bring up Phillips to ride the pine and have Comrie carry the load for the Moose. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
Exactly..this injury if it is long term is more significant than people might think. I feel much better with Hutch being the backup than Comrie at this stage of his career.Umm.... if (god forbid) Helle gets injured 3 minutes into the game on Friday and we need to use a goalie in a meaningful divisional game - that’s why.
You’re only a backup until suddenly you’re not...
More than one poster must have taken a puck to the head too. Neanderthal level thinking.
In my day goalies didn't wear masks, when we got hit in the head with the puck we liked it....we'd tell the shooters do it again!
Great now we have 2 goalies.Lotsa guys would've kept it under wraps.....still. This does nothing to ease my suspicions of Hutch being a bit of a flake.
The masks should actually not cause concussions due to a puck hitting it, right? Otherwise we'd have concussed goalies every few games.
Mask design probably needs to be looked at. This really can't be acceptable.
I like that stroll. It’s like he owns the joint.
My son had 3 concussions by his 14th bday, his first one from bumping into his coach while skating backwards, second a body check and third a cross check while driving the net and hit his head on the crossbar . **** happens and everyone is different. We had a long talk with him and all decided together that local hockey was the way to go from here on in to limit any potential long term damage.

What? I'm not suggesting he should've handled it any differently.More than one poster must have taken a puck to the head too. Neanderthal level thinking.
Happens all the time. But, no....not a good idea.As we just saw with Mason, you don't want to fool around with concussions, and you definitely don't want them keeping it "under wraps".
Kind of makes me wonder if I had a bunch of concussions playing football in the 80s and 90s and just never knew it?
I don't remember ever "getting my bell rung" in hockey or any impacts to the head, but football was constant hits to the head and definitely seeing stars a few times. Kind of makes one wonder since there was not the awareness back then.
Ugh. Comrie isn't ready. Need to stop the madness at practice.

His last start and some of his AHL games he doesn't have as tight a game.Why isn't he ready?
