Note to self. Don't open HF Boards before you're fully awake and the coffee has finished brewing - it can potentially ruin your whole morning. This sucks.

It's like 11 am there!

 

[Lion Hound]

Terrible news. Hope this guy is ok.

 

[will1066]

Some guys get over concussions fairly quickly. Others seem to have more trouble recovering.

Easy does it, Judgie McGee. I work nights.

 

[mrhockey193195]

Oh god. Hopefully it's minor.

I'm just busting on you. I figured you probably work nights.

Please let this concussion not be as bad as I think it's going to be.

>>OFFICIAL: #NYR Mika Zibanejad is not on the ice today and is out due to a concussion. When? Anyone catch when this happened?

It must of happened in the game against Vancouver, right? Thats all I can think of. Don't remember anything happening and I don't think a concussion would have happened in practice.

Time to tank. Sell everyone.

Feels like one of those “he hasn’t been the same since the concussion” seasons coming in hot.

 

[WeRa]

Chance for Chytil or Lettieri...
Or some trade?
RNH?

Please no.

Hope Mika gets well soon. Hayes has a good opportunity to up that payday he’s getting in July depending on how long Mika is out

 

[RangerBoy]

Wonderful.

Poor guy can't get a break, was injured last year as well but this year he has been more developed with the team and came out strong this season.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Damn that sucks

Call up Vinni. Keep Chytil down for now, he's doing great

 

[Ail]

Bring Chytil back up and give him an actual look, more than 6 minutes a game.

"no." -- AV probably

Doesn't have to be a hit to receive a concussion. Could just as easily be his head hitting the ice on something more routine or even less than that.

 

[RGY]

Wonder what the hit was. I was at the game but dont recall

Concussions are tricky. Definitely hope they err on the side of caution in getting him back in the lineup. Last thing we need is him coming back too soon and getting another one a la Crosby.

Zibanejad had a concussion when he played for Ottawa.
