Maybe cut by a skate on the leg? He was able to skate off but seemed like he knew something wasn't right.

Although I thought everyone was wearing those Kevlar socks. Don't see much in that clip.

Land of no calls..
Seemed to make a b line for the bench after getting up. Weird. He was moving quickly for a guy who just got injured.

Highly doubt the official Twitter would say he was not returning only to have him get traded. C'mon now. :laugh:

I slowed down an overhead and it looked like Orpik's shoulder/elbow hit Kreider up high and his neck twisted. It was after the end of the period when they showed the overhead. I think that's where it may have been. I don't know it's hard to tell.

Hope it’s not serious. Neck muscle injury would be random but good.

Maybe a reason why zucc was jousting with orpik the rest of the game? Hopefully not too serious and he just needs a little time.

It could be so much, for all we know he could have a broken rib from an earlier game with problems with the pain killers which often wears out after about a period.

Reminds me of when Kreider got hurt in 2013-14 out of nowhere it was reported he had a broken hand and missed the end of the season up until the middle of round 2.

Hopefully it's only a few days or weeks at most.

Looks like Vinni Lettieri is going to get his shot and play in the Winter Classic(!)

Yeah I would think Lettieri or Tambellini is the call up here.

Would normally think Holland, but bit sure how his recent suspension affects him NHL-wise.

Holland would be the logical choice but is he ineligible due to his slashing suspension?

Lettieri has done more to earn the call than anyone.

Tambellini sucks.

I would think Tambellini would be in the mix for callup just due to seniority.

If I had to choose, I would call up Lettieri

Sorry, guys, but any information about Kreider being posted as true must be accompanied by a link to a reputable media source.
