Edit the title to say that... Just seeing "quick" is confusing

Thanks...Multitasking while working.

This is somehow Face Wash's fault

 

[TonySCV]

It'll put a damper on his summer workout regimen for sure... should still get a month in of workout time prior to camp though.

Quick's wrist injury happened during Anaheim series. He had surgery today. Recovery time is 10-12 weeks, per Kings

Article says the injury happened in game 2 of the SFC.

*Head explodes*

 

[Face Wash]

So he played at least 12 games in the playoffs without normal use of either his blocker or glove hand... That's insane!!!

 

[Bandit]

Hopefully it was his glove hand, but I kinda doubt it.

 

[TonySCV]

So Quick played with a busted wrist for as many as 19 games... and still won.

And he was still better than Lundqvist!

Quick still wins Cups with bad vertebra and bum wrists!

Feel better soon Quickie!

 

[apadilla]

thankfully it is not an emergency, but a planned surgery after an injury, shows the true grit of hockey players, they play through whatever for a chance to win the cup,

 

[Degenerate]

So the Yahoo article is wrong? Because it clearly says the injury occurred in Game 2 of the SFC..... Which would mean 3 games with an injured wrist.

Sounds a bit more believable really.

EDIT: I guess it also says they corrected the initial report of it being vs the Rangers, and was indeed vs the Ducks when this happened. Just confused me, because that's a big difference really.

Nah, it was just puck luck.

 

[BringTheReign]

It was during the Anaheim series?

Quick is a monster.

 

[Buddy The Elf]

Hopefully Lundqvist will be nice enough to share some of his Advil gel caps with him. Maybe next year they'll make an ad with Quick catching a rhinoceros puck in his glove?

 

[CowMix]

It seems like Quick has been having some kind of surgery every offseason.

 

[Telos]

It seems like Quick has been having some kind of surgery every offseason.

His style guarantees it. He does what it takes to win and his body pays the price.

 

[Alisa]

Had a feeling but didn't say anything because I didn't want it to look like an excuse for him not being phenomenol constantly. Makes sense now that he let in some uncharacteristic goals here and there. Huge testament to Quick, and our team, that we still won every game when it mattered.

And he was still better than Lundqvist!

Quick>Lundqvist

Healthy Quick >>> Lundqvist

 

[Damassk]

He could injure his wrist during Anaheim series and then make it only worse in second game versus Rangers

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Busted it on Perry's junk clearly

Dude is a warrior

Want him to get a full offseason of rest AND conditioning, but I guess at least he'll get the rest

I hope he didn't injure himself while bruising Perry's ovaries...

I could watch this for hours.
