Injury Report: Canucks' Infirmary: The Walking Dead Edition

[moog35]

Heard through a source that Kassian's back issue also has something to do with his hip. Hopefully he can avoid surgery. I was really looking forward to seeing him in a playoff series

Dammit

If Kassian comes back, I would sit Matthias. He hasn't done anything. Play Kassian with Dorsett and Richardson until he's up to speed, then get him up with the Sedins when the flames start getting nasty. Kassian will keep them in check.

Yeah, kind of expected he'd be done for the playoffs once we didn't hear a peep on him after he skated. Very unfortunate. He would've been a beast in this series.

Saw Kassian downtown tonight, and I'm guessing the rest of the team is in Calgary already. Probably means he isn't close to returning.

Downtown, as in a drinking establishment?

 

[Carl Carlson]

This series has Kass written all over it, wish he was able to play.

Typical Canuck luck

Typical Canuck luck

Pfft, the Flames are missing their best player and captain.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Need to get Kassian on some DDP Yoga.

I'm actually surprised we don't hear that Yoga is a core component to off ice training. Helps maintain both hip mobility and strengthen core muscle.

Bryan Berard credits yoga as key to helping him recover from a serious back injury.

The Canucks started to incorporate yoga under Gillis.

 

[Huggy]

Who would sit for kassian in a desjardins system

Hes probably fine and they told him get it 100percent for tc


Nah lets pretend hes done and were ****ed

 

[Caspian]

Interesting. Gillis was always forward thinking.

I wonder if we still have a sleep doctor to help optimize player rest?

it's just odd that he's basically fallen off the face of the earth and there's no publicly available information

if he's out for the year with a back/hip injury just say it so the speculation can end...it's not like they'll be able to hide this kind of info from a trading partner

Nature and fans abhor a vacuum. The team has created a huge vacuum around Kassian and people are filling it with anything they can dream up.

We shouldn't entertain trading him anyway. I don't know why, when players get injured, they think they will be traded. It's almost never how it works. Maybe not re-sign if it was a contract year, but this isn't the case.

Kassian will come back next season. Too much potential to trade for his current value.

 

[NoShowWilly]

more rumblings of Kassian needing back surgery.

 

[tantalum]

I don't get where this vacuum of information is coming from. He has a back injury. It's listed on the injury list for goodness sakes. The injury list does say day-to-day but it's clear at this point that it is more serious than that given he skated once a bit ago and hasn't been on the ice since.

It's not that nature and fans abhor a vacuum it's fans simply like to make **** up. He's hurt. End of.

Nope we got rid of them this year when the new management came on board. And then we heard about fifty times throughout the season how fatigued our players were.

Burrows has been loaded into an ambulance on stretcher.

Vancouver Canucks @VanCanucks
Burrows sustained an upper body injury & was taken to hospital after practice this morning for precautionary reasons. Will not play tonight.

 

[Radiolad]

Burrows hurt in practice

TSN reporting Burrows taken to hospital with wrist injury. Can we replace him in time?

 

[Foundational Player]

Terrible news. He is a key cog for this team. I hope it isn't anything serious.

Guessing Sven will be dressing in his place?

Jeez, not good. I hope he is okay. Anytime anyone leaves anywhere on a stretcher I am worried.

 

[Sir Bennington]

Good news sven is recalled. Glad we're not putting vey in

 

[Jay Cee]

Oh man this is the stuff Stanley Cup legends are made of!

Fate has Sven take out Calgary and then take the cup.
