Gimme Rundblad or give me death

Yikes. Won't be a pretty month and a half on D.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Awful news. Here's hoping for a complete and speedy recovery for Keith and that the Hawks weather his absence decently well.

 

[CourtneyDagger50]

This is a disaster.

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

Who takes his spot?

 

[ClydeLee]

Gimme Rundblad or give me death

Seeing responses of it talked on twitter.. I was in a moment of honestly forgetting that he is an option of someone who could play games still. Dang, I guess that will have to be a thing.

 

[Toews2Bickell]

If he needs more than 4-6 weeks to get back to 100%, give it to him. This team stands little chance in the playoffs without him being at his best. Probably time to give Hedja and Vish a call (don't think they signed anywhere). LTIR Keith.

 

[CourtneyDagger50]

Seabrook-TVR top pairing d-men now lol
maybe Hammer-Seabs. But that doesn't seem like it would work well.

 

[Toews2Bickell]

Hammer-Rundblad
Svedberg-Seabrook
TVR-Daley

?? Gonna be some pond hockey games going on for the next month boys

 

[UsernameWasTaken]

Yikes. Not good news.

 

[BobbyJet]

It had to happen sooner or later. I wonder if Cumiskey will get the nod? That would be my call.... or does Q move Daley up and bring in Bladder?

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Did he look hobbled at all to anyone on Saturday? I didn't notice anything while at the UC. Preemptive fix of a nagging issue or late game/post game injury?

 

[CourtneyDagger50]

May God, Jesus, and any other deity be with Corey and Scotty in this horrible time....

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Well damn.

 

[RedBaronIndian]

On the glass half full side, opportunity for Seabrook and Hammer to step up. Plus opportunity to save some cap by using LTIR?

 

[Marina]

Dammit. I hope he recovers 100%.

In the meantime... this will be some wild hockey.

 

[Sir Loin]

At least it happened early. Hawks can get a look at a few other guys. We'll definitely see Cumisky in there.

 

[CourtneyDagger50]

I don't think this is what any of us meant when we suggested taking him of PP1

 

[sharkhawk]

Better now than April I guess. Maybe get him a little rest this year too.

 

[BobbyJet]

At least it happened early. Hawks can get a look at a few other guys. We'll definitely see Cumisky in there.

BTW ... just read yesterday that Rozi is getting closer. They didn't give a time table but I got the impression that he will be ready in about 2 weeks.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Cumiskey or Rozsival will need to step up into a bottom pairing role, defense as a whole will have to take a step forward, and offense will have to start clicking consistently across more than just the second line.

Not inherently disastrous, but has the potential to be very bad if we let too many points slip though our fingers in the coming weeks.

Well this made me laugh in these dark times.

 

[G0AT]

HUGE loss. Get well soon #2. Everyone will have to step up in a big way. At least it is early and it's only weeks and not months.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Well that's not good news to wake up to.
