Yeah, Forsberg has really dried up without Arvi.That would be very bad news.
It's just annoying that the NHL teams are so hyper-sensitive that they can't provide this information. Who is really going to take advantage of it? NHL players have more solidarity and respect for eachother than at basically any other time in history, the number of db's who would target an injury is very low. Fans are paying the bills and buying the tickets, they should be entitled to know. Give us the regular season anyway. Playoffs - ok, I think we can compromise and let the secrecy win out in the playoffs, fair enough.What's your speculation about PK? I'm thinking illness instead of injury. Hopefully a 24 hour bug, maybe needed IV fluids because of the way he returned in the Ducks game. Went out about the same time in first (13 & 18) in both games. Though fluids (?) helped against Anaheim the next night that was just not enough.
Neither time did I see any contact that should take him out.
I don’t know, some hand breaks aren’t but a few weeksI saw that too. There were a few people who said he was on their flights back from Dallas and he did indeed have a cast. May have been precautionary but he's likely looking at a 4-6 week injury if a cast was needed.
He had a weak shot for the rest of the year. I'd rather let Arvi rest and get back to 100% rather than come back at 60% like Neal did and stay there for the whole year.Yeah it was around Thanksgiving that year and he struggled with it from then on.
I'm not endorsing or declining this idea but if Tolvanen is truly only a good call up in a top 6 role, then I wonder what he could do next to Joey. But whatever.
Why would you have to do Grimaldi or Tolvanen in the top 6? Next one up there should be Hartman imo.
Well that's with the assumption that he'll provide offense and we simply aren't choosing to bring him up. There's no guarantee that he would. He might, but it's not anything to bank on.If the team isn't willing to bring up Eeli, I think we have to seriously consider making a move to bring in some additional scoring. We can't really afford to be without Arvi's offense for that long.
