Great News for Jarrod Maidens

[Savitar]

Hey guys I've been away on vacation the last 6 weeks that's why I haven't blogged for so long but I have great news to share.

I talked to several Owen Sound Attack fans the last several weeks and they had nothing but ravishing news to share. They were honored to announce that Jarrod Maidens will be ready for training camp. Jarrod said that he will be back to a full speed game and anticipates his health will not be an issue.

The best thing I heard from one of the fans was Maidens publicly stated in an article that he believes he can return to be the same player he once was which would be huge!!!

Lastly at the Owen Sound Attack end of the year awards Maidens dad said Jarrod is ready in desperation to play again in the OHL.

In closing this is huge news!!! If Jarrod can live up to his expectations as a pure offensive scoring forward. He could go a long way to being one of the biggest steals of last years draft and more importantly give the Senators two 1st round picks. Some thought Maidens could be a mid to late 1st round pick! The fact we snatched him up in the 3rd round could go a long way in the future if he can stay healthy.

Let's hope for the best. I cannot wait until he puts his skates back on and plays again

I wondered where you were.

Fantastic news - can't wait to see him play in the Fall!

 

[Sun God Nika]

good news, i won't get my hopes up, but i can see him be kind of like a vincent trochek

 

[Emerica]

Awesome.

 

[Benttheknee]

Rather than hope he pans out as a prospect, lets hope that he can get his game back, and keep from getting clocked.

Excellent news. I've been waiting for this. September can't come soon enough.

6 week vacation? Are you a member of the Canadian Senate?

 

[BonkTastic]

Nice.

Stoked to see what Maidens can do in a full, healthy season as an over-ager.

 

[Sun God Nika]

according to his hockeydb stats he hasnt played anywhere after the 11-12 injury he had, is this true?

Nice.

Next year isn't his over-age year. With the stall in his development I fully expect him to be there for his overage year though.

6 weeks vacation in spring??? What kind of socialist hell are you from???

Well, good news from Maidens. Refuse to get my hopes up, but definitely good to hear!

He hasn't been able to return since before Christmas in 2011 due to his concussion. He hasn't gotten traded or anything, he just hasn't been able to play.

Ah, you are correct.

I must have mathed wrong. I added two maths when I should have only added one.

Any precedents for a guy getting a serious injury this young in his career and coming back strong? Just curious how long it would take a player missing that much time to return to his pre-injury self (if ever).

Hishon?

Vermette?

Although he wasn't out quite as long.
