Seems like a fluke injury? How did he get hurt.

"In Wednesday night’s game in Edmonton, Logan suffered trauma to his right thigh, creating a Charley-horse effect which prohibited him from returning to the game," Sharks GM Doug Wilson said. "Upon returning to San Jose, it was discovered that there was a small arterial bleed in the area. Last night, Logan underwent a successful procedure in San Jose to close the artery and is expected to make a full recovery." There is no timetable for his return, but this isn't expected to be a long-term injury. Couture was playing in just his second game after returning from an ankle injury that cost him nearly two months"

Oh man, hopefully everything turns out fine and he returns ready to go.

So many injuries for the Sharks this year. Just unfortunate that we haven't gotten to see everyone since game 3.

Geez, I feel for Couture. This season has been a complete throwaway for him. I hope his recovery goes well and comes back strong next year.

Hopefully he will not be out long. That is just bad luck getting hurt in his second game back after a long layoff due to his broken leg.

The hits keep on coming. At least Vlasic is back...

At least Stool is out east now.

Even though I hate the Sharks, that sucks. Couture is a stud.

At least Stool is out east now.

funny thing to complain about considering you root for a team that employs the dirtiest player in the league

Hope he learns how to play defense while he's out, a horrible player on the otherside of the puck, overrated.

hes received Selke votes in past years, so......

 

[Redline]

Thats too bad. If San Jose was in any other division this would essentially wipe out their playoff hopes.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Good news for the pick. Too bad for him however.

I think you're thinking about the wrong player.

At least our players keep their incidents on the ice.

He's really committed to this dive this time. Wow.

I don't recall ever saying Torres was a clean player, nor do I see how he's connected to Stool running Vlasic.
