I wonder, is inability to bear weight typically reassuring?

I've seen it be both bad and a non issue. Don't think you can go off of that

 

[Mr Rogers]

after looking at it a bit, I don’t think it’s going to be devastating or anything. But wouldn’t surprise me if they just shut him down even if he would be able to return.

 

[Hockey Duckie]

Pretty much this. Our big prize for being a bitch ass tank team last year can't ever stay in the lineup.

Pat Verbeek Will Not Rush Prospects, Aug 2nd, 2023 NHL.com article:

"Patience is going to be required from everybody -- from myself, from the coaching staff and even from our fans," general manager Pat Verbeek said this week while scouting the World Junior Summer Showcase at USA Hockey Arena.​

​

"They're good prospects. They just need time to grow, time to mature. They're so young. It's not an easy league.​

​

"As I told some of these guys, 'Listen, skill-wise and probably thinking-wise, you can play in the NHL. But strength-wise and speed-wise, you can't, so those are the things that you've got to really get after in the summertime to make sure you're ready for the NHL.'"​

Guess Verbeek didn't take his own sound advice.

Yah Carlson's length strength needs to be worked on during the summer. Hopefully the kids ok. It sucks

 

[MMC]

Strome sure can chuck em for a guy who doesn’t fight often

I’d been purposely avoiding replays of it but just watched and I hope he just has a bad contusion. Was fortunately some thigh and maybe not all knee.

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

. I agree with him on this one.

Seems like a scare. Just sit the rest of the season out

That was my thought. Wasn’t sure if strome was that good or if Vlasic was just as bad at fighting as he is at not running into people with his legs.

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Strome is just reckless when he fights and I think that intimidates guys who don't do it usually. Like Kunitz - he only fought when he was mad and it made a difference.

Yup, I remember Mad Dog Kunitz.

Yes yes, we have already established that everyone here is old except for that 3 year old with an HF account

 

[ohcomeonref]

I fell asleep and see we won the game but lost Carlsson again, which makes the night a loss.

Cool

Pretty much. With how this season has gone I mostly only watch the games that Carlsson plays.

Meh. I still watch to track the progress of all the young guys. Though, I would be very upset if this had long term ramifications to Leo's development and would have a selfish level of butthurt if all three Ducks (NHL) games I go to this year have missed Leo in the lineup.

I technically went to his first "game" in a Ducks jersey but I don't count a rookie tourney as a real game.

 

[JAHV]

Damn it. Pyrrhus strikes again.

 

[McDonald19]

It's strome that does it! Good for him. Again, Johnston...

Maybe I'm too hard on him this time since he never had a chance to be on the ice.

Johnston came to the aid of a teammate earlier in the game, against a much tougher opponent in Tinordi.

 

[Terry Yake]

carlsson needs to be shut down for the season

no point in risking further injury in meaningless games. hopefully he puts on some strength in the offseason

 

[MCB]

Accident or not, if someone went knee on knee to Bedard, you’d know that would be at least 5 and a game

Not to mention 3 articles and 2 podcasts calling for the offenders head on the athletic

 

[Sniperberg]

Leason seems to be finding his groove which is cool to see.
Leo getting hurt is poopoo.
Strome punching someone in the face is something i didnt expect to see.
Noname with his 1st(?) shutout is nice.

Leason was fine all season… the fact that he got made an example of is insane.

So it seems carlsson was sacrificed so zegras can return. This is a really unlucky season

 

[Sean Garrity]

Strome steps up, our accountability guy is MIA.

He’s in Edmonton lol.

 

[anezthes]

Can we start sacrificing the older gents instead? Can't even enjoy a rare win.

 

[duckaroosky]

Speaking of sacrifices, @Ducks DVM how did the feet hold up with the traffic cone shoes?

Had to walk a bit slower than usual because there’s not a lot of foot support, and you can feel the rocks you step on

It’s beyond me why people wear these things as actual shoes. Maybe they’re all just tiny.
