I feel a thread like this is needed.
So who is injured?
Helm. Abby? Green. Bertuzzi.
Does anyone know when they are due back?

This team has lost 212 man-games to injuries, the most by far in the league. EDM has the 2nd most, at 188 (as of DEC 17th).
This seems to be a recurring theme. Do we lack toughness? Are we just unlucky?
Franzen and Vitale make up a lot of those man-games. We've run into some injuries for sure but nothing extreme. Lack of toughness definitely isn't much of a factor when it comes to injuries.This seems to be a recurring theme. Do we lack toughness? Are we just unlucky?

With no data to support it, I feel like skill has something to do with it. If you're skilled enough you tend to be able to avoid hits. Obviously there are other ways to get injured, but that's a big one. High skill = better passing = fewer suicide passes to teammates.

Yea, if you take out their games we drop down to 148 MGL
And its not like the injured guys are key players like Green and Z. Vaneks few weeks out feels like th only injury that's been felt.
Lets not pretend this is like 2010 or 2014 when we had a crippling injury list.
Any updates on Green and when we may see him back?
Helm- Said he could be back by the end of the year, Or early next year.
Abdelkader- Supposedly Abby is out 2-4 weeks haven't really heard any updates on him yet.
Green- Green is only day to day he doesn't think that he will miss that much. Maybe just the Tampa and Florida games.
Bertuzzi- I think Lil Bert said that he could be back sometime next week after the Christmas holiday. So we shall see there. I would assume that Bert would need to be sent down once Helm returns to clear enough cap space to fit him in.
Marchenko- Was just placed on the 7 day IR list, Would assume it's retroactive from the days he's been out. So he probably can come back here before too long.

On Friday, Holland said Green is "out for a while" w/ an upper-body injury. I hope it's not a concussion.
Where did you get that report from?
I'm so friggen over Smith, just waive him already. Someone else can have him.
