NHL players you consider injury prone

[mikeyp24]

Crosby

Prone means likely to repeat an injury or having a reason that causes you to be hurt over and over. Just being unlucky doesn't make you prone.


So because concussions... Crosby.

 

[Dano85]

Bobby Ryan's Hands

 

[JoemAvs]

Varlamov and maybe Johnson on the Avs.
Compher also is out with his second injury this season. Hope it does not become a trend..

League wide I will state the obvious ones:

Gaborik, Bogosian, Ryan Murray, Kris Letang, Bobby Ryan, Stamkos, Edler, Tanev and many more.

Unfortunately there are way too many of them..

 

[GoBluz24]

Blues - Schwartz, Fabbri, and to lessor extent Steen and Berglund

 

[Advanced stats]

Chris Tanev.

oh look another "I couldn't actually make my point in debate so I'm going to try to get random folks on a broader message board to agree with me and THAT'LL SHOW 'EM" thread. Not used to seeing these for my team, tho.

For the record, the point being made was that "injury prone" constitutes someone likely to be injured again in the future, which is a bit of a tough determination to make if there's no consistent reason for the injuries.

Ah here we have classic Viqsi assuming things about others and concluding that her stance is the correct one.

I was curious about other players and am allowed to make threads.

When a player misses time due to injury basically every season and has played in 59 percent of his possible games, I think it is very fair to label them as injury prone regardless if it is a reoccurring injury or not. Cheers.

Ryan Murray is not injury prone. He's just unlucky.

Please close this thread. It's hurting my feelings. Injuring them, as it were.

 

[MinimaMoralia]

Hanzal.
Hemsky.
Hall.
Havlat
Stamkos.
Pouliot.

 

[Dano85]

Jimmy Howard

 

[tntkid]

Carey Price,

For my team: Tyler Myers & Tobias Enstrom.

Very fragile.

lupul was

Lupul could fart and go on the dl. None of his injuries were from playing the game..

His broken arm in 2013 was a result of a neon deon slap shot.

I was at the game in his JR year when he first got injured. it was such a weak hit. He looked like he was made of glass.

 

[Royale With Cheese]

Bogosian.

 

[JD1]

6/8 seasons he's played at least 77 games, and this season he's been healthy too. and he played the full lockout season. When he does get hurt he gets really hurt, but it's not like i'd say he's prone to it

I know he broke his leg. Wasn't the other season a non hockey related thing? blood issue or something. or am I pulling a Clemons and misremembering?

 

[King'sPawn]

Cogliano

 

[lawrence]

Chris Tanev got Sammy Salo's injury ways. Him for sure my gosh.

 

[voxel]

Hemsky
Havlat
Gaborik
Pitkanen
Lupul

 

[RABBIT]

Hanzal.....srsly.

 

[OVrocks]

Crosby, his noggin is made of glass. He should really retire while he’s still able to remember his name.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Rick DiPietro

 

[aemoreira1981]

Right now, I'm going to say Aaron Ekblad and his concussion issues. Will his career end prematurely because of such? He has dressed for every Panthers game this year so far, but with the amount of concussions he has had in his career, given that he is only 21 years old...who knows?

 

[57special]

Bjugstad.

 

[These Are The Days]

Islanders used to have a guy named Dennis Vaske who seemed to miss 60 games every year

I never heard of him and WOW you were dead on about that. Holy crap
