I saw on twitter that Mathias Brunet asked the question of whether he'll travel...not sure if it was just asking a general question or if it was based on some knowledge

Either way...he's getting closer. Let's hope the symptoms don't apear again

By the end of the season, Bourque and Diaz should have a few games under their belts and will have recovered their timing. Great news. Diaz's return means another strong puck-moving D, which still leaves our D undersized without Emelin. I'm okay going into the playoffs with who we have, but we'll likely need Tinordi's size at some point. I hope he gets in a few games in the next two weeks.

 

[DJ Breadman]

Diaz shouldn't travel with the team, Bourque said he skated hard 4 days in a row then traveled with the team and that's when he started getting symptoms again, said he got tired from the travel and also answered i'm not sure to a question about if the plane ride affected him.

Any updates on the Paccioretty injury?

expected to play via nhlnetwork.

Having Diaz healthy would be great for the playoffs. I don't like having any of Bouillon, Drewiskie or Beaulieu/Tinordi/Weber/Kaberle/Pateryn in the top 4.

What a great depth at 5-6 though.

EDIT: Forgot St-Denis, too.

I think MTL has pretty much ended their relationship with St-Denis. Too much young d talent. Only way he plays if we get serious injury issues.

I guess. Too bad, because from what I saw, he could be a stop-gap 6th/7th D pretty much anywhere. Kind of Drewiskie but with a different style. +1 with a terrible team.

Thank you kindly

really hope he stays with us in hamilton, though. perfect veteran leader for the kids down there. The new (smaller) henry.

wolverine never gets injured

I have my inside sources re: Emelin's injury:

1) Complete tear of the ACL
2) Complete tear of the MCL and distal tear of the MCL
3) Thigh and quad charley horse
4) No damage to the meniscus

No damage to the meniscus is good as it means that he can go back to harder rehab quicker, but they have to wait for the charley horse to heal before he can go for the repair of the ACL. They believe that the MCL will repair on its own during the charley horse healing time.

Ouch.

Thanks for that. The look on his face when he went down told the whole story. Didn't realize the story was this long. (plural tears in one knee)

Apparently the initial impact only did part of the damage. When he fell on it and it twisted more, the rest came.

Well it's clear the impact is what caused the charlie horse. Now because he had a charlie horse, his leg probably locked up and when he went down he could do nothing to lower the potential of tearing with an awkward fall.

Darn...so he could be done for the rest of the year...

If he blew his ACL he should be good to go for opening day next year. Damn, tough blow for him and the team. Hope Diaz is ready by April 30..

That depends. He has to wait for his charlie horse to heal before they send him in for surgery. For a normal human, it's 6 months until you can get back to sports. For an athlete, it can probably be 4.5-5 months. He'll most definitely miss training camp IMO.

 

[Teufelsdreck]

It's a blow no doubt but it doesn't of itself doom the Habs' chances. They can still win, as they did against the Bruins in the game in which Emelin was injured. However, we have to recognize that some teams are better than the Habs even at full strength.
