Injury Report: Jason Pominville (5/7/13 Update: He's Back!)
- Thread starter Fel 96
- Start date
Personally, i'd agree, if it were a couple of old ladies fighting over the last of the Corn Bread Dressing at the Old Country Buffet. Fortunately, Their careers aren't at stake if one of them ends up with a concussion.
Maybe the Wild get a 2 minutes instigator penalty for the melee that incurs after someone annihilates Brown. 2 whole minutes, Maybe. Ya ya ya its an important game, but who's to say that instead of sulking on the bench worrying about how Pommer is and being the cooler heads the team comes out of its slumber and actually starts taking it to the Kings. The spark the team needed to actually give a crap about what is happening on the ice. The Wild were up 2-0 before the Pomminville hit, and barely managed to hang on to win 2 -1. They were not the same team after that hit. Yes they were intimidated. The Wild were outshooting the Kings 20-7 before the hit and were outshot 16- 5 after.
It's an endless debate that unfortunately has 2 sides. All I know is if someone slammed their elbow into my face and knocked me out of the game I'd be wondering why no one from my team cared enough to do anything about it.

Give Pomer rest until the playoffs. We don't need him back to beat Oilers and Avs. If we can't beat them without him, we don't deserve to be in the playoffs anyways.
That would give him 1.5 weeks off.

Thank you, sweet rabbit
This is exactly what I hoped they would do the day after his hit. Let Pommers rest and ease him back into playing before he gets thrown into the mix again.

Considering our weakness at D and goaltending in this series I cannot begin to explain enough how vital his return would be to help the Wild at least stay with the Hawks upfront in this series.

I'm not sure our weakness is at goaltending. Crawford and Emery aren't exactly stellar. I'd say goaltending is a wash.

It will be a huge energy boost for the team to put Pominville in tonight. Would be a mistake not to.

If I'm Yeo I send him back to Minnesota ASAP and keep him out until game 3 minimum. If he's still having symptoms one more day's rest really isn't gonna do much good.

It's complete garbage Brown only missed 2 games due to it, yet we're without one of our more important players for god knows how long.
