Tyler Bozak - oblique strain - out for extended period of time

Lupul 2.0?





Chris Johnston ‏@reporterchris 3m

Tyler Bozak has an oblique strain and will be out an "extended period of time," per Randy Carlyle.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Well ****.

 

[Hurt]

How many games was he back for? 1? 2?

 

[Penalty Kill Icing*]

Now, as claimed by our Hf experts, expect our PK to take a dip.

 

[ACC1224]

Damn, he was and now again will be sorely missed.

 

[Warden of the North]

Damn it

On the bright side, Kessel will play tonight, Lupul is very close, and Orr is out of the lineup.

 

[shaner8989]

This is ****ing ridiculous.

 

[dubplatepressure]

This.

Glad we get to see more of Holland, hopefully we just don't stink tonight.

Was hoping I didn't have to say this but.....don't think we be making the playoffs this year...

Injuries upon injuries upon injuries...like WTF. Enough already..why are we so unlucky.

 

[BonMorrison]

wtf is an oblique.

Well we better snap out of this 5 game winless streak if we want to make the playoffs.

Bozak going down again doesn't help. Can this team stay healthy at all?

 

[Al14]

Bozak, learning hard from Lupul!

Why is it that as soon as Bozak gets the big contract, he can't stay healthy? Why???

 

[Hurt]

wtf is an oblique.

 

[Hibachi]

Sucks for Bozak, he was normally pretty reliable when it came to injuries, and within 8 months or so... he's had 3 of them and out for extended periods.

 

[TribalPhoenix]

Well, Kadri will get his shot to play with Kessel now. This could be a big opportunity for him to regain his form.

Also, we can kiss that 2nd rounder goodbye - basically guaranteed that Holland will slot in at #2 centre, and likely eat up that 25 game condition on the trade mighty fast...

its not like this game is make or break. still have a three point buffer, but obviously that can disappear quick if we don't start getting some wins.

 

[The Big Chief]

Would like to see something like this tonight

JVR-Holland-Kessel
Kulemin-Kadri-Clarkson
Raymond-Smith-D'Amigo
McClaren-McClement-?????

Playoffs? Never mind the playoffs. They just need to win one, single, game, this week!!!

Seriously he's a grinder, brings absolutely no offence, D'Amigo would be better here.

Also **** spreading the offence out, if we can get 1 line going on all cylinders, rest of lines can trap. Put Kadri top line, Dallas doesn't have a shut-down pair/line any way.

 

[Schenn]

Well this just sucks.

 

[Mess]

Phil Kessel and Trevor Smith had the same number of points in November. That was in part due to Kessel missing Bozak on his line.

Bozak's return sparked JVR and Kessel back into action and on the scoresheet again and his absence will be missed by the team and his linemates most of all.

Ah man
