Injury Report: Hyman knee-on-knee (Update May 10: Back at practice)

[123offtheglass]

Good news for Zach, that could have turned out so much worse; hopefully he takes the proper amount of time & rest to comeback without any setbacks.

Whether or not he's back in 2 weeks, game 1 of playoffs, or a little later, the Leafs are more than capable of beating every team in the North & if they're a legit contender they'll do it; they'll need to pickup the slack though. For the time being, the Nick Foligno addition just became that much more important.

 

[Eternal Leaf]

He should be good to go for round 1.

That's all that matters.

 

[CatchyTune]

As long as he's back for the playoffs i'm fine with it

 

[Alamo Leafer]

Who knows when the 1st round will start anyways. It all could be pushed back with a cough.

 

[Kiwi]

I'm happy about this

Hyman being the person he is would suggest he will move heaven and earth to get back so he can help the team in the playoffs, it might be to soon but you know as he will give it his all

On a human level I'm really happy for him, the guy is going to get a new contract soon and dodging a major injury can only help his long term financial future

 

[Once]

Woo! Hockey gods looking out.
He'll be fresh come playoff time.

As long as he's back for the playoffs i'm fine with it

They said Hyman should get 5 games in before the playoffs.

 

[123offtheglass]

Rarely does the punishment actually fit the crime.

Yup, part of what wrongly makes guys like Tom Wilson more effective than they should be; messed up.

They said Hyman should get 5 games in before the playoffs.

weren't they talking that the other divisions will probably start the playoffs, before the north due to the canucks schedule?

 

[123offtheglass]

Hopefully Simmonds gets to have a word with Edler by the end of the month.

That would be greasy, I hope they'd start them at the same time to be fair; even if that means overlapping the regular season & playoffs (once/if Calgary & Vancouver are officially eliminated).

 

[ACC1224]

Sprained seems like good news. Did Edler get suspended?

 

[Bomber0104]

Not the worst news.

[ShaneFalco]

Rest up Zach you'll be huge in the playoffs

 

[Clark4Ever]

2 games.

 

[DarkKnight]

I’ll take it. PHEW!

 

[Leafsfan74]

This news is about as positive as one could expect under the circumstances. They are going to need all hands on deck when the playoffs roll around.

As much as the injury isn't good news, who knows? Maybe time off during the hectic schedule will help him reset other nicks and bruises, especially based on the way he plays.

There must be a number of battered players working through this intense schedule.

 

[CapspaceKiller]

Most MCL Sprains are 4-6 weeks, so when they say at least 2 weeks they mean 4 weeks. He'll be back for the playoffs, great news

 

[tokyoite]

f---- you edler

 

[danron1376]

good news

 

[34]

The Vancouver Canuck organization is a pile of trash. I hate that team and fan base.

Edler has no class. Hopefully Simmonds takes care of him on the 29th when the Leafs play them at home in Toronto.

 

[kk87]

thank god... as long as he can get in game shape for the playoffs that's all that matters

 

[sxvnert]

Just in time for the playoffs. The extra LTIR can be used to bring andersen back early.

 

[BTP]

2 weeks Minimum.

Google says these things take 6 weeks to heal.

So he'll be back for the playoff but most def not 100%

f*** Edler

2 Games
