Devils Team Discussion (current team/player news and notes) ‎2014-2015 Part XIV

[JimEIV]

So you're saying he's close to being ready?

Just saying I think he is the best of what is down there.

 

[nugg]

By the way while awaiting Gelinas' news, what is Severson's injury? I know it's been listed as "ankle" but that's awfully vague and he's been out for a while - longer than usual for just a sprain unless it was a serious injury to the high ankle.

Any information appreciated.

Not sure where, but I read it was a stress fracture.

 

[NJDevs26]

Yeah they said 4-5 weeks and Severson was shelved in mid-December so I wouldn't count on him being back till after the All-Star break (we have a super-long break between the 19th and 28th this year).

In Devils language that means expect him back at training camp.

Saw this posted today...

Craig Custance of ESPN: Trade speculation hasn’t surrounded the Devils much as GM Lou Lamoriello isn’t ready to bail on the season just yet.
“That’s not even in my vocabulary right now as far as I’m concerned,†Lamoriello said. “Right now, it’s a day-to-day situation. It’s a game-to-game situation, and it’s just an observation about how people respond to the set of circumstances we’re in.â€

Jaromir Jagr has said he wouldn’t object to a trade if that is what Lamoriello wants to do.

“If [Lamoriello] wants to move me, he will,†Jagr told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. “If he doesn’t, he doesn’t. He knows I like it here, but it’s all about whatever is best of the team.â€

One GM said he wasn’t sure he’d want Jagr at this point in his career. Other Devils that are in the last year of their contracts that could interest some teams include: Michael Ryder, Martin Havlat, Steve Bernier, Scott Gomez, Jordin Tootoo, Bryce Salvador and Marek Zidlicky.

“Zidlicky can still play. He’s a quality, right-handed D man. He can help a power play,†the scout said. “If I was a [team like] Detroit, I’d make that call.â€

The scout added that Adam Larsson is player he’d make a pitch for.

Its funny reading this got me thinking about Salvador's injury.

What was the prognosis for him. The only thing I know it is a lower body injury that is not related to his previous long term injury being a torn hip.

So i'm guessing a Broken leg or ACL tear or achilles tear?

he actually has a bone fracture. I think I read it in TGS blog

 

[Khione]

Hrabaneka is in la-la land. aka Clowe land.

Concussed?

 

[Zippy316]

Hrabaneka is in la-la land. aka Clowe land.

That's unfortunate, I wanted to see him called up to replace Harrold. Hopefully, we see Burlon instead of Fraser though.

 

[glenwo2]

I have a feeling that, just as Jim said, we might see Burlon.

 

[ScottyK]

It's going to be Fraser, come on guys

I'm sorry but I can't hear you....

Devils will call up Mark Fraser for tonight

 

[HobokenIrish]

It's going to be Fraser, come on guys

TG says it will be Fraser!!!

Of course

 

[ForeverJerseyGirl]

Wish it wasn't Fraser getting the call-up, but this season has mostly been one long disappointment, so I don't know why this should be any different
