Injury Report: Injury Thread 2019-20: Pelech Out, Cizikas and Boychuk are healthy

[islesfan186]

To be clear, I put the day to day there and it hasn't been reported as that yet. My assumption was that if there was no further damage he'd be more day to day because stitches don't take that long to heal.

I think he’s done for the season. You know how long it will take for a cut that took 90 stitches to close up will take to heal? Especially on your face? I had a biopsy done on my shoulder over the summer that took maybe 8-10 stitches and was told no gym or anything like that for 3-4 weeks.

Yeah, but this is Johnny Boychuk we're talking about. He eats pieces of shit like you for breakfast.

He'll be back by 4:30. Well, maybe 5.

Does it need to fully heal though? Your shoulder is moving a bunch during a workout and there's straining of the skin. On a person's face? Not so much, at least not anymore than what would be happening if he were just sitting still. If he wore a shield I imagine he'd be back relatively quickly. We'll see though, all depends on where the stitches are exactly and who did them I'd think.

It kind of cuts into the legend a bit, but these stitches were done by a plastic surgeon. They were tons of little, tiny stitches designed to leave little or no permanent mark. It's not like the old trainers using sewing thread where 90 stitches would re-attach a limb. Boychuk will probably be back sooner rather than later.

Damn you for this. I wanted the legend.

Stitches aside, they also had to re-attach his eye, graft on new eyelashes and eyebrow, and put back some of the brain matter that fell out, and the only anesthetic/pain killer/antiseptic used was whiskey, and Boychuk requested a mirror so he could watch with his other eye.

Then he was quoted as saying, "wait until they get a load of me."

Hickey has been recalled on emergency basis. He'll wear #34.

 

[PK Cronin]

Kuhnhackl not skating which seems odd, but then again...who cares?

 

[gordie43]

Hickey the answer on LW?

Can’t wait to see him get thrashed in the corners like a rag-doll!

He'll only play if the other regulars on the roster can't, so it's unlikely we'll see that happen.

 

[crasherino]

Glad to see Hickey get called up. Even if he's scratched, at least he's hanging with the big club.

Lee and MDC not skating all year but yet they're still on the ice.

 

[notDatsyuk]

90 stitches on your face? Jesus christ, that's Frankensteinesque.

Got to be one of the worst ever (apologies to the faint of heart):

About 250 stitches, from a trainer, not a plastic surgeon.

I would hope not given his concussion history, having had multiple concussion some severe, I would like to see him call it a day.

 

[xIsle]

Yes...a team that just acquired a D man to fill a need at the deadline can certainly afford to lose another one for a period of time.

At least this time, Dobson will play on his strong side... Hopefully he will do well.

Kuhnhackl is day to day with something.

Kuhnacklitis, affects motor functions.

Incurable

Slipped in the shower? Tendon injury while playing that hacky sack before the game (or whatever it's called)?

 

[PK Cronin]

Nicer than that scumbag Bergeron.

 

[PK Cronin]

Pretty swollen, but not nearly as bad as I was anticipating in terms of length.

That's about as good as you can ask for after getting hit in the face with a skate. Thank God he's "ok" (for lack of a better term).
