This is the stuff that irritates me to no small degree, as our papers fail, they ignore the avs... so who is going to pick up the slack and actually do some reporting maybe even some investigative journalism in the ONLY team in Colorado worth a .. ok that was out of line
snicker...

so.. rant over
If we had some actual coverage we would know who skated and it would be here in this thread.. did anyone on the board see practice today>?
I would like to know mostly about Iggy....

Surprised TMV hasn't posted about this yet (I saw the tweet on his feed). Hopefully it's nothing serious.

Already been said that Duchene has a stiff back but should be fine according to Roy.

*phew* Thanks. Should've dug a little depper before posting.

It's ok, it's not like anyone covers the team so you'd know.

 

[dahrougem2]

Yeah, this team is looking more and more like it's going to be a tank season simply because we've got our most important players banged up already. Landeskog, EJ, MacKinnon, now Duchene. I have a feeling the injuries are going to pile up in a major way this season, unfortunately

 

[tigervixxxen]

I wouldn't call those others banged up everyone has some issue or another

I asked last night, Tangs disappeared for half a period. Did they say anything? That coupled with him not skating the other day.

It just isn't a good sign that this early on in the season they're dinged up a bit and already needing to take it easy with regard to practice. They need all the practice time they can get, going at full-speed if you ask me. But having minor injuries, even if they are still playing the games, is very bad for this team.

I haven't updated the op. EJ, MacK, Landy have been practicing.

It's rare for any team to be completely healthy at any point in the season.

Painfully true.

Of course, but it doesn't help when the injuries start to pile up much earlier than we can afford.

Sit him. That stiff back is going to be a broken neck if he plays in California. We are dropping both those games anyways. Let him rest and play after cali.

Im ok with that. Not trying to pessimistic but even if we were 3-0 firing on all cylinders its still a tall task
Those two teams are looking at us like catnip right now.
Put in Greg, hope for the best.

 

[forsbergavs32]

I wouldn't be opposed to sitting Duchene through cali...last thing we need is him to play 2 tough teams when he's not 100% and end up losing the confidence he seemed to be getting in the Boston game with chances

Landeskog-MacKinnon-Tanguay
Comeau-Soderberg-Iginla
Rendulic-Grigorenko-Rantanen
McLeod-Mitchell-Skille

Although I think i'd rather have Mitchell center the 2nd line with how bad Soderberg has been.

 

[Foppa Frossa]

Relax, it is just Stuart Day to Day with back injury

 

[forsbergavs32]

Did he hurt himself reaching for his nachos or his soda?

 

[Avsboy]

Whenever I see this thread bumped I cringe. For Stuart day-to-day I also cringe. Would rather him on IR (with a non serious non-life threatening injury, of course).

 

[freeboy]

please explain the difference from day to day and ir.. is it that on ir you bring up some one ?

 

[tigervixxxen]

Day to day means evaluated on a daily basis, could be ok the next day. IR means you are not on the roster.

Any update on John Mitchell. Saw thats why we recalled Ben Street.

Everyone is just speculating about a Mitchell injury. No one knows for sure yet.

 

[captaincheese]

True I guess the article doesn't necessarily say he's out for sure.
