Avs should start charging for every injury report. They'll make a bank

 

[Ararana]

Your daily, don't read too much into it, Byram update

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

I haven't talked to the trainers yet, I'll know more tomorrow

Wow actually some good news on the injury front.


*knocks on every piece of wood on this planet

 

[Avs_19]

MacKinnon isn't missing that Canadian road trip. I'll be surprised if he's not out there for the Toronto game.

Wasn't Francouz supposed to be back like two weeks ago lol this dude is never going to play a game for the Avs again.

I just hope he's ready for December. We play basically every other day, and Kuemper is going to be worn out

The update every time they ask about Francouz

This is video from today.



Dude looks pretty good. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s back for the Dallas game.

Looks slow, timid, scared of shadow. He shouldnt play until the PP gets cold.

Yeah MacKinnon is done. Get rid of him before he's up for a new contract

Ok wow this is a hot take. Pump the brakes here.

We just need to lower our expectations. He's a very serviceable 3rd line center. He'll be a bit overpaid for a few years, sure, but he'll re-sign cheaper if we show him some loyalty instead of shipping him to some bottom feeder for a 6th round pick

 

[Sea Eagles]

To be honest, when we get Mack, JT, Byram and Franky back, we are going to be unstoppable.

The **** do we need him for anyways, we have 1C Kadri on pace for 111 points.

Hey man the first covid shutdown was supposed to be 2 weeks remember?

 

[BillyCostigan]

It's less about MacKinnon being gone (although he clearly was playing injured to begin the season), and more about Makar/Toews/Girard all playing during those games. Mack is still a monster.

 

[Metallo]

Kadri breaking the 100pts plateau before Mack would be hilarious and so Avs.

It would also be great.

Longer than that. Injury was 3-4 weeks from late September. Should have been playing by Halloween

Then was told to not skate for a while from doctors and have more recently been back to skating and now taking shots. Better late than never?

It is definitely a bit concerning that it has taken this long. That said I could also see them taking the extra slow approach on his recovery with the schedule we have coming up. The Avs have had a luxury playing the fewest games in the NHL right now. They have played only 14 games which is 6 less than the most in Toronto, Montreal, and Detroit. We have had several long breaks to rest Kuemper. The workload for him should not have been an issue so why rush Francouz back when he might have played 1 game.

December/January has 3 back to backs and pretty much a game every other night for two months straight. We have only one 3 day break and one 2 day break. Otherwise, everything is every other night. I honestly hate we had so many long breaks early on in the season but is what it is.

Better to get the injuries during the slow period than the busy period.
