Injury Report: '16-17 Sabres Injuries: Larsson, Fedun, Okposo, Nilsson, Foligno

[Zman5778]

Kulikov out with a lower back injury tonight vs. Boston per Bylsma.

Then obviously yesterday wasn't a maintenance day.

Looks like we can add Carrier to the list with a bad hand that prompted Bailey's recall from the Amerks.

Does anyone with some back injury knowledge care to speculate about Kulikov? I'm almost expecting to hear something about some sort of disc injury or cracked vertibre after the seasons over.

I wonder if he cracked a transverse process when the bench door opened during preseason.

 

[Woodhouse]

Kulikov was already previously asked that in one of his previous returns and said no, then went into how an injection helped. That this nagging injury stems from a stupid bench door is so Buffalo though.

Larsson injury is looking like a dislocated wrist, while Gorges injury is a hip pointer.

This stuff gets better and better...

I hate to say it, because I think larsson is a very good and important player, but if this is what needed to happen to ensure Reinhart stays at center when ROR returns... then so be it. Unfortunately, I expect a Girgs to center and Reinhart back to wing

 

[joshjull]

That's pretty nasty. Yikes.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Thats gotta be a season ender....hes one tough dude to just get up and skate off

 

[ZZamboni]

Can someone, anyone, find the point in which he was injured? And post the video?

It shows the injury and gives a reminder of why jack Edwards is such a tool

Even if Reinhart goes to wing over Eichel, it might be the first opportunity we get with optimal lines/roles. Especially if O'Reilly bumps out Grant vs. Bailey/most in-form young player.

fell and caught his arm under/behind the weight of his body sliding hard into the boards.

Jack Edwards is such a moron.

Jack Edwards is such a moron.

When the Sabres are contending for Cups, I'm going to enjoy listening to Edwards as the Sabres throttle the Bruins. It's coming.

Thinking the same thing.

Chickens...hatching...the counting thing...how does that go again?

I think this is perfect. Eichel-reinhart-girgs-grant (sighhh). Bring up and keep up baptiste and Bailey and inject some speed and want. These guys are green but need to prove it or spend next year in the ahl as well. The injury bug hit us real hard right now but I don't expect rolyqn out more than another week before he pushes himself back into the lineup for better or worse and Ennis will get prime minutes soon enough with all these injuries. I wanna take advantage of this small window we have and give baptiste and Bailey legit minutes and see what happens. The amerks are soon to get nylander and Fasching back so I'm not sweating it for their sake either.

I'm ok with this prediction. Buffalo is along the same path which worked for LA and Chicago.

I'd like to see what the young wingers can do as well.
