Please be okay. Our defense scares me without him.

 

[CourtneyDagger50]

I am so upset.

Trevor van Riemsdyk "got hurt pretty bad," Q says.

[SatchelRuaz]

No timeframe on van Riemsdyk. Just "out for a while." That's longer than "a bit," for what it's worth.

If Q said that, then that's not very good.

"Not too bad" usually means a couple weeks in Q-speak....

#Blackhawks will recall a defenseman from Rockford before the trip.

[Kurtosis]

Damn. That's a really big blow.

That now makes the default 3rd pairing Rozsival and Rundblad. Ugh.

It should be interesting to see who it's going to be.

As an aside...this site should really start letting posters embed tweets like other forums do.

I think it's gonna be Dahlbeck although Cumiskey could get the call as well.

 

[Kurtosis]

I'm guessing Cumiskey.

 

[SatchelRuaz]

Huge blow for the Hawks. TVR has been a huge bright spot during a rough start to this season. I hate to see Rozsival being depended upon on this road trip.

 

[SatchelRuaz]

Q on TvR injury: "That’s all hockey. Things happen. As a team, as an organization you get tested and challenged in different ways."

 

[Kurtosis]

Rozsival is going to be a huge negative on the road trip, especially when it will be that much more difficult to hide him from opposing teams' top players.

Yep. I want Dahlbeck up.

Keith Seabrook
Dahlbeck Hjalmarsson
Oduya Roszival

But we'll probably get
Kith Seabrook
Oduya Hjalmarsson
Dahlbeck/Rundblad Roszival

UGH UGHU GH so upset.

Wow. If Q said that he might be dead.

Get well soon/RIP (whichever applies)

 

[Taze em]

He got hit with a puck in the leg. Could the shot have broken his leg? With Q's wording it has to be a few months, right? It's not like there is a long list of injuries that could happen when a puck hits your leg?

 

[Kurtosis]

Yeah, it could be a hairline fracture of the fibula or something like that. Those take a while to recover from (I would know).

That ain't no kidding. None of the "lower body injury", "it's not too bad" type stuff. I'm expecting 4-6 weeks as a minimum, with 6 likely being on the lower end of things.

 

[Pepe Silvia]

I hope this won't hurt his development/confidence. The good news is he came back strong after last year's injury, so he should be fine.

 

[Kurtosis]

I don't feel like it will hurt his confidence at all. It might slow down the development curve, but I think he knows that he was playing pretty damn well so all he should be focused on right now is busting his ass in rehab and getting back on the ice as soon as possible.

My reading of Q-speak is TvR out months.

 

[Kurtosis]

My reading of Q-speak is TvR out months.

I am leaning that way as well. It really is hard to stay positive right now. It just seems like it is going to be one of those seasons...

Well as long as they can come together healthy for the playoffs I will be okay.
