He took a skate to the face. According to Capuano, he was lucky as it could have been much worse. He hasn't been put on IR, so appears to be day to day at this point.

What a rough couple of seasons for Grabner
I guess. He's got a kid, a bunch more tatoos, and about 9M in the bank to show for it.
Feared he's a take the money and run player.... and he appears to be. I'm sure he's not getting injured on purpose, but I never got the feeling he was a guy who was committed to his craft.
Don't know him, could be completely wrong. Just my gut instinct.
Got his large contract after one breakthrough season and hasn't built on it since.
Ashame.
Never to be confused with a great passer, but speed is the biggest asset in the NHL. Could have been a top flight PKer and dangerous winger. Went from 2-3 breakaways a game 3 seasons ago to not so much.
Couldn't have been luck, could it?

You can teach speed, but if he had any finish to his game he could be a dangerous player. Very dangerous. Just seems off to me as well.
It sounds like he is committed and has a good relationship but IDK. COuld be bitten by the bug, just a little too much tho. My gut tells me he may be the piece moved if and when the Isles make a deal.

you are completely wrong IMO. He works like a madman in the off season, speed like that has to be earned. He is on pace for 25 goals /82 games for his career, while he hasnt been able to reproduce the success of his rookie season that really isnt bad for a guy averaging like 14 mins/game (playing with greats like pre-breakout okposo, reasoner, regin and nielsen) and no pp time.
For a guy who cost nothing, grabs sure gets a lot of flack around here. He has shown to be injury prone, but that is simply not predictable and could happen to any of our players.

@NYIslanders Capuano: Bumps and bruises for Grabner and Clutterbuck. Nothing serious. The two of them and Calvin de Haan each skated this morning. #Isles
Good news.

Does anyone have a pic of how bad de Haan was cut? I remember feeling my heart sink when I saw that skate go up and clip Calvin.
Honestly, I almost snapped that it happened right in front of the ref and the red didn't blow the play dead immediately.

I am trying to keep this updated as best as possible. If you hear news of an injury please post it and I will update the main post
Pretty sure that is the most people we've had injured at one time this year. Sounds like we'll be getting a few guys back soon though.

Our depth has really saved our butts this season, we're had quite a few injuries. It's the big difference from last year to this year.
Is it weird that Matty Donovan and Cal de Haan are wearing the exact same grey button down?
I wear a suit every day and I don't even own a grey button-down. How do TWO guys have the exact same grey button down?!?

Lol, and they appear to be wearing matching black hats as well, right? Maybe one of them is passing his hand-me-downs to the other?
But that makes two of us. I wear a suit almost every day, maybe mixing in the occasional sweater when it is really cold outside, and I do not have one drab, grey dress shirt in my wardrobe, like the two they are sporting.
Of course I also do not want to be mistaken for a 1950's door-to-door vacuum salesman either. They look like two guys who show up on your doorstep and ask, "Have you found salvation yet?"

LOL indeed. Perhaps this is some kind of hazing ritual? What other explanation can be given to that wardrobe decision?

Agreed if CC is indeed returning. CMac is serviceable in the role and he worked hard with the BST to get back to the NHL (even if it is just for a handful of games). Again I am very thankful they did not recall Conacher. He was useless, when he wasn't scoring goals, for the BST in the games I saw.
