Jesse Puljujarvi double hip surgery

[Nsjohnson]

Unless I'm somehow wrong, there is no way he had a double hip replacement. There are many things you can have done in surgeries on the 'hips', which is a hugely broad term. He could have had surgery on any structure, cartilage, tendon, bone, labrum, etc. He is young, the only way his hips are bilaterally in a state of total degeneration is if it was a congenital condition that somehow was not caught, and he lived with and is now seriously affecting him.

If he expects to play, it is a functional surgery.

Pastrnak was never in the discussion for the top 5/10 picks. Tkachuk was.

Nice try tho.

30 nhl GMs had puljujarvi top 4, nice try though.

Drafting him wasn’t the issue, it’s how bad Edmonton is at developing and putting players to succeed

 

[coopooter]

Not acually true. There’s no weight bearing at all for about a month or so. Typically 6-8 month recovery and honestly most people don’t feel like themselves until a year or more after. Its a pretty brutal rehab, can’t imagine getting both done at once

No weight bearing for a month is not that big a deal for a surgery (People are saying he had both hips replaced)

He will be ready for training camp

Jesse has:

Femoroacetabular impingement:

"A condition in which extra bone grows along one or both of the bones that form the him joint....giving the bones an irregular shape. Because they do not fit together perfectly, the bones rub together during movement"

It's never ending with this kid. Jesus

Jesse.

 

[SullivanT]

Bone spurs common can happen to anyone and can just form over time

 

[Craig Button]

Poor kid.
His career is over.

 

[eviohh26]

Damn. I feel for him. Gotta be a messed up head space knowing what you could have been and now what you may never be able to do.

Poor kid.

Lol , far from it. Its a fairly common condition and surgery for hockey players. Lots of goalies have had it and successfully come back.

Canucks Thatcher Demko had both hips done at the same time years ago as well and he’s moving fine

 

[Oddbob]

Sounds like double hip bust, badda boomsh!

 

[Soundwave]

Monahan had surgery on both hips after last season.

 

[ole ole]

Guess he busted in more ways than one.

 

[Brock Radunske]

The Oilers curse is so real, it's even using genetics.

 

[Absolut]

Ooof, this doesn't sound great. Best of luck to Jesse. It will be one painful rehab.

 

[torniojaws]

Guess he busted in more ways than one.

Breast augmentation too?

 

[NinjaKick]

this just sucks, double hip surgery at the age of 20? not good

 

[authentic]

Another high draft pick botched by this wretched organization. Or maybe they really are just that unlucky.

 

[elmaco]

Good ole laugh at all the doofuses in this thread who think he has hip replacements.

 

[crowi]

Puljujärvi according to Finnish media: I have granny hips.

Probably said before, but I just got here so.

Happened to me with zero notice. Vascular necrosis led to dead bone and the need for double replacement.
I'm not saying that is the case, but it can just come up on you.

 

[Crosbyfan]

No wonder the Oilers were trying to trade him so desperately. Snake organization.

Snake oilers?

Is this sarcasm? I hope it's sarcasm.

I don't think you can really pin this on the Oilers since it's reported to be a genetic structural issue haha.

 

[Lennu32]

Damn. Those hips don't lie

I guess its hip to be square

 

[MikeK]

Another victim of the Oilers.
