Injury Report: Trevor van Riemsdyk (now he underwent wrist surgery?)

[MurrayBannerman]

TVR will be missed. One of the few positive surprises this season.

 

[Bubba88]

feel bad for TVR. Hope he'll be back and healthy soon

 

[clydesdale line]

Just terrible for his development. Hopefully he doesn't miss significant time and comes back stronger.

So at the earliest mid-January? Yeah, that definitely sucks.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Terrible news.

 

[hawksrule]

Kind of crazy how quickly he became an important contributor to this team.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

This sucks big time. But trying to look at this from a positive perspective, I look at this as an opportunity for a young guy to develop and will be better for the team down the road. Lets see how much depth we really do have down in Rockford.

Ugh this sucks so hard. Now we have to see Rozy all the time. Hopefully a kid can come in and make him sit.

Hopefully we see a kid like Clendening come up and could also help on PP.

 

[Marina]

This sucks. Poor guy.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Absolutely awful news

Clendening cant play defense

He would be awful fit on Hawks with Rozy/Rundblad

The interesting thing is they say they are going to bring up a Forward and D man? My guess is Mcneil or TT and Brennan or dahlback. I would like to see TT and Brennan if it was me.

McNeill injured his knee

I would prefer to see Danault at this point given his strong play in camp and TT being used by Q on 4th line or something isn't what I want to see

 

[Sevanston]

Oof, that's terrible news. Hope he has a speedy recovery. He's been a real bright spot this season.

I would slot him on the line 3 teows, Saad, Hossa, Kane, Richards, Steeg, Bickell Shaw TT. With Kurger, Smith, Carcillo/Morin on the 4th line.

 

[Longwayfromhome]

Fractured kneecap. Must be it.

 

[CallMeShaft]

Disappointing to have this happen to him. Hopefully he'll be 100% when he returns.

A few possible positives though:
-We give a young dman like Dahlbeck a reasonable amount of time to get acclimated to the NHL.
-We may have enough room to bring up Danault, TT, or McNeil (once he recovers).

 

[hisgirlfriday]

Just feel bad for TvR to have this happen, but at the same time, hopefully it happening now and ONLY being 2-3 months will allow him to return and get back into form ahead of the final playoff push.

 

[Bubba88]

awful, feel bad for TVR
