2013/14 Injury Update Thread

[Ace Rimmer]

Any news on the Hudler injury?

He's in the projected lineup for Friday, so he's probably good to go.

As per Calgary Flames official site

Glencross and Westgarth are expected to join Wotherspoon against the Ducks, too

Matt Stajan is expected to return to the team on Tuesday.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Poor guy, hopefully returning is therapeutic for him.

Hi guys, any news on D. Wideman and K. Ramo? Much appreciated

Ramo is back practising. He's probably a week or so away. Haven't heard anything on the Wideman front in a while.

 

[Anglesmith]

I've been meaning to mention this all day. Wideman is likely out for the season. David Jones might be back in time for the end of the season. Hudler is in the lineup tomorrow. Granlund will be back before the end of the season. Ramo was questionable for tomorrow's game, but isn't ready yet.

Any news on Markus? He's been out for ages.

He should be back to play a few games before the end of the season. It's a shoulder injury.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Went on IR March 11, original diagnosis was 4-6 weeks which puts his return the last week of the season at the soonest.

Looks like there's a chance Wotherspoon might be shut down for the remainder of the season. Not sure what the injury is yet. #Flames

And he was doing so well.

Ffs. That really sucks.

It sucks for the Heat, but overall Wotherspoon has already had a very productive year in terms of development, I would say.

any news on Smid's injury and if/when he may return?

it hurts, he will return when it no longer does, however long that takes

Seems like Wotherspoon's injury caused him to undergo some pretty significant cosmetic work.

 

[Anglesmith]

I wouldn't be surprised if Smid is done for the year, but we haven't been given any insight from the club or the media.

It's definitely a reason they called up two defensemen instead of just one.
