So I guess u were the fella that reported me. I was just talking to other Oiler fans trying to get advice on the same problem.

Isn't that every Oilers thread (from a mental point of view)?

Why would I report you? Report you to... myself? There were 29 posts in a row not about Klefbom.

Gee, I do see how that would be a problem for this thread, and I bet there is probably a better (OT) thread for me to seek advice. Thanks Soli, you're the best.

No problem, back to Klefbom's bombed out shoulder.

Maybe Oscar is reading the thread and will take comfort in our misery.

Well come on then and git' er done!

I thought he was talking about shoulder replacement surgery before. Do we know if that is the course they are taking? I did a quick google and couldn't find an NHL player that has ever had that procedure done before and came back to play. Medical procedures are almost black magic nowadays though, and Klefbom is young, so you never know.

I really wonder how this will play out. I assume he is still waiting in Sweden. I assume the best doctors are in the USA and with covid it's next to impossible for Oscar to get his surgery right now. He's a huge asset to the team, but if he chooses to retire I'd be fine with that. You've gotta look after yourself first. Some of the news and documentaries about former hockey players are pretty scary.

There's not a lot to me that would suggest he would go down that path.

Granted he could become depressed from retiring so early. But nothing to me really shows that he'd end up like a lot of these guys that had addiction issues due to concussions and such. I've also never read any stories that suggest he wasted all his money on hookers, blow and gambling.

I do agree though at this point it's obvious he has to look after his healthy after hockey and it really appears that he is doing that. So that too suggest that he might be on a better path than a lot of others.

Even if Klef retires, it would be nice to have him around in some training capacity.

Good leader, maybe a coaching future for him?

 

[Paralyzer008]

Pierre LeBrun mentioned Klefbom as an option for his Swedish Olympic team still as did Eric Duhatschek.

They called him a wildcard.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Good luck Klef. Hopefully they fix you up good this time.

News is at a geologic pace in this thread I see. Really I just clicked to see how it had been bumped and what the latest old news is. Its Feb 2021 and I'm getting last years news. Or 5 yrs ago, or..

 

[Blue Line Turnover]

Any news on Klefbom's current status? I'm assuming that management already knows what they're doing with the #2 LD spot, but I really hope that he comes back

 

[Mr Positive]

It seems like if Klef returns it will be a game 1 of the playoffs resurrection, Kuch style

The way this thread changed course to something else that got beat to death reminds me of another thread.

There won't be any news until the expansion draft at the earliest

You know exactly what I'm talking about.

You've been trying to get my attention and now you got nothing to say? Predictable.
