Injury Report: Hyman knee-on-knee (Update May 10: Back at practice)

[ponder]

Hyman took a nasty looking knee from Edler, so far hasn’t returned:



Same knee he had surgically repaired in 2019:



Fingers crossed - knee injuries are weird, he might be OK. But didn’t look good.

Update: via @crump , hopefully not a tear

"The good news is, Dreger says that early reports are that it’s not as bad as it might have appeared. While the injury looked severe on Sunday and that Hyman was in clear pain, it sounds like things could have been much worse and that a tear isn’t believed to have occurred."

(Caveat: It's Dreger)

Update 2: via @Jimmy Firecracker , sprained MCL, out a minimum of 2 weeks. Phew!! Could have been much worse. Hopefully he’s fully recovered by the start of the playoffs!

Edler 100% needs to get suspended

 

[crump]

Ffs. Crossing fingers.

Luckily his leg was in the air and not planted. It almost looked a bit like a Charlie horse to me rather than a full knee tweak. I’d expect nothing long term here and I should know: I’m a doctor of mixology

 

[Shak19]

Not gonna lie but it looked season-ending to me

 

[Coachcorner]

I hope nothing is torn or ripped. Bone.

Hyman is maybe our most important player. One of the biggest thugs and key players for surely sire He loves the gezame, hard.

 

[MattySnipes]

Hope he's okay. Bieksa seems to think he'll be back sooner than later.

Heal up Hyman, you're our warrior. Going nowhere without you if we're being honest.

 

[Twine Tickler]

nothing new for Edler. Loses position and sticks out a leg intentionally. Not in a way to seriously hurt anyone, but that’s exactly what happens when you do stupid shit like what edler just did

 

[Mats13]

Man I just hope he can be back in time for the playoffs

No rush to play any regular season games. He can sit out the rest of the season if needed.

Edler 100% needs to get suspended

After Tuesday's game. I want Sabourin dressed for that game so Edler can get filled.

 

[BertCorbeau]

God I hope he is ok... f***ing injury luck this year has been bad

 

[Mickey Marner]

Hopefully no knee damage.

Same - hopefully it’s soft tissue, not a ligament tear. If it’s a ligament tear, his season’s over, but it very well might not be.

 

[The Big Swede13]

Man hope hes okay

The only positive I saw was that he limped off on his own volition.

Hopefully he lunged forward with his body to shift the full brunt of the impact.

If he is out for a length of time, Leafs are in tough obviously.

 

[Martin Skoula]

Hopefully it's nothing serious. If he loses his speed and strength on his skates that's going to hurt his game massively. Wonder if this plays into his contract at all.

 

[LeafSteel]

My heart sank watching that.

Hope he’s ok.....

 

[Fogelhund]

Confirmed Hyman won’t return tonight.


@LeafsPR

Zach Hyman (knee) will not return tonight vs Vancouver

 

[Menzinger]

Won't know until tomorrow at the earliest

 

[BertCorbeau]

Shit... please be precautionary

 

[Jojalu]

After Tuesday's game. I want Sabourin dressed for that game so Edler can get filled.

Edler isn't going to drop the gloves, and Sabourin wouldn't even go after him

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Garbage play by a garbage player. Can only hope it’s isn’t super long term.

 

[LeafGrief]

That looked bad. Real bad. Come back Zach, we need you.

 

[Cleetus]

probably in the top 3 for most important players for the leafs, what a let down....

 

[Suntouchable13]

Hopefully it's nothing too serious. God knows when the playoffs actually will begin so he has plenty of time to recover. I wouldn't panic just yet.
