Injury Report: Bruins 2013 Injury Thread ‎II

[KuralySnipes]

Is this a cause for concern??

Hopefully it's something minor like a sore knee or something. They will probably give him a few games off just so they don't aggravate the injury before the playoffs.

 

[ReggieMoto]

Is this a cause for concern??

Well, to the point of sounding obvious, maybe or maybe not. Who knows?

My unprofessional diagnosis: strained ligament. Not torn, but flexed a bit too far, maybe stretched. It was probably a bit swollen and sore and they want to let it calm down.

Oh, and I'm sure the puck to the knee didn't help much either. He took a beating, played through the pain, and is paying a little bit of a price for that.

 

[Alicat]

Listening to the Fan 590 this morning, they were saying that Seidenberg is ahead of schedule and there is a possibility that he could be back at some point for the playoffs.


If this is true, the man's a beast!

Non story. He was there for treatment. He's not coming back until training camp.

 

[whatsbruin]

Still no definitive news on McQuaid ?
Getting down to a dozen games left in the season.
If he takes almost 2 weeks to get into shape, that doesn't give
him many games to get his timing back.

Amalie Benjamin‏@AmalieBenjamin·
Johnny Boychuk is practicing at the team's optional skate today. From what Julien said, it seems unlikely that he'll play tomorrow.

 

[1988 Broke My Heart]

Might be good to rest him anyways. Maybe Potter can pott one for the team,lol.

 

[redsox7327]

On WEEI Pierre just said that Seidenberg told a source in Carolina that he could come back this year. Hearsay. Doesn't hold up in a court of law, but interesting. I don't think, until this point, anyone has come out and said that Seidenberg himself thinks he can make it back. So some hope there.

 

[Rumpy]

Can't see any athlete no matter how fit come back from acl/mcl tear within 6 months and being the same player.

Adrian Pederson took 11?

9 which is unheard of.

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

Ya but German's are like super humans I've been told. His juicy knee cannot be stopped.

 

[8thRoundPick]

I'm no doctor, but I would assume it is entirely based on the severity of the tear?

I'm sure age matters too.

 

[Trap Jesus]

Said this before but Peterson's recovery was considered so remarkable because of how good he was when he came back. He's a RB who relies on quick cuts back and forth repeatedly and he came back to arguably have the best season of all time. 9 months is an incredible time to come back in, but it's not unheard of; RG3 came back in 8 months.

In the case of an ACL tear there really is no "severity". If you require surgery, the only thing that separates your recovery time from someone else's is the strength of your leg muscles before the injury/surgery. An ACL tear is an ACL tear and there really is no such thing as a partial tear. Some poeple can rehab an torn ACL and get close to 100% but there will always be a torn ligament in your leg.

Also, there is no such thing as repairing a torn ACL, if you have surgery on an ACL it is a replacement.

Would be nice to hear something on Quaider at some point, Claude will have some interesting decisions if he is able to return.

I get the feeling we might not see Mcquaid again in a bruins jersey.

Miller is a very adequate replacement.

No in a pugilistic sense , but I think his D is stronger.

If he is going to play, they better get him some games.

Better skater too. I think we've seen the last of McQuaid in Boston too.

Have they ever even said what his injury actually is? I can't remember ever hearing what exactly was wrong with him.

Quad strain I believe

This was the last info:

Boston Bruins ‏@NHLBruins Mar 28
Adam McQuaid "going in the right direction" as off-ice workouts ramped up: http://bbru.in/1dV6PaM ^CS

 

[Seidenbergy]

I'm no doctor, but I would assume it is entirely based on the severity of the tear?

and whether the doctor stayed in a holiday inn express the night before the surgery...

 

[BosBruin2k]

Adam McQuaid?

So what's the latest on Adam? Do you think he will be ok for the playoffs or get atleast one game in? Or is he done for the year?

Thank you for your input
Take care,

I believe he (along with Seidenberg) are both skating, but not with the team. No timetable either, iirc.

 

[dredeye]

Thanks. It must be a pretty bad one to say the least.

Seidenberg is skating? Is this confirmed?
