Injury Report: Injury Thread 2018-19 [Klefbom (Finger Surgery, Out 2 Months)]

[Oilhawks]

Any news on Rattie?

When he's back, send down Puljujarvi so he can hopefully find some confidence in the AHL. Seems funny to say this but Caggiula was missed tonight as well.

 

[H2OFroster]

Rattie has been activated from IR

Sekera skating a bit per Chia yesterday - let's say Feb return. Not sure what we can realistically expect when he returns or for the rest of his contract.

Rieder out for a month

Rieder out for a month

Yeah, that's rough, he'd be largely effective.

Yup, so pretty much what people were expecting. Back around Feb. Probably will suck ass when he returns though, lol.

"Probably"?

Yeah, Sekera is going to he a shell of his former self. Two serious leg injuries in a row at his age? He already looked terrible after last years knee injury. He'll be, at best, a bottom pairing guy for the rest of his career (which is likely to be very short now).

Ah snap, thanks for the info. This injury came at a bad time, he was just getting his play together.

 

[Blue Line Turnover]

Any update on Reider?

Any update on Reider?

Was reading on twitter this morning he is skating but in a non contact jersey.

What's the deal with Drake? Would love to have him back on Sunday against Calgary...

Hurt his hand in practice. Day to day.

 

[Oilers in NS]

Both Rieder and Caggiula are going on 2 game road trip and could possibly play

[Evergreen]

Klefbom hurt?

HItch says that Klef will go back to Edmonton for further evaluation.

Said he's pretty sure he'll be out "weeks, not days"

 

[Mcnofool6110]

Oscar... hes more machine than man now

 

[McDaddy]

There goes the season.

 

[McJadeddog]

So with Klefbom out with an assumed broken hand. How long does that usually take to heal? Google says anything from 3 weeks to 8 weeks, depending on the bone that is broken.

Other than McDavid, Klefbom is the player that we can't afford getting hurt the most. Our defense is already pretty pathetic with him playing. Our top 3 is going to be Larsson, Nurse, and Russell? God help us all.

Really sucks, as we fight our way back into the playoff conversation, and then this happens. We were a long shot to make the playoffs before, and now it's going to take a minor miracle.

 

[McJadeddog]

There goes the season.

Yeah, probably. At least we made it to December this year, instead of it being over in November. Maybe we'll make it to January next year!

 

[Boom not bust]

An injury to any of our top 4 is tough with this team, extra tough to lose Klef

Just when he started to hit his stride again.
