Tribute Kase appreciation thread

[al secord]

As a life long Brentford FC supporter who's team signed a star player who suffered cardiac arrest on the field last summer, I'll say what I said about Christian Eriksson, I wish Kase will retire and just enjoy a healthy life with his family. That was really tough to watch.

Poor guy, hope he can recover ok. I don't think he comes back to the Leafs this season and his career may be done. I hope there are not long term issues.

Wishing him a full and speedy recovery, but the play style that we all love is what gets him into trouble.

Coming into the Leafs with 5 past concussions in his past and considered retirement, he was a pleasant surprise as we spoke earlier before the season started, I thought he would spend most of the season on LTIR as a result.

I believed he might have been a LTIR play to start the year, after playing only 3 games for Boston the year previous, and Leafs might have him for the playoffs, but it appears I may have had it backwards.

Leafs got far more out of him then I expected. This concussion might be his last unfortunately.

I fear you might be correct, but I hope not.

I love Kase. And fortunately, I didn't see what happened to him, don't want to. Boy, what a hockey player he is.

Any update on Kase? I realize with his history he might be done for good. Just curious how he's doing.

Haven't seen anything for a few days, but glad he wasn't part of this one. All his appendages may have fallen off.

Once his double vision and headaches are gone, hopefully already, he will be back .. guy is a trooper .. issue is how long does MLSE sports science guys hold him out with no symptoms .. dude would have played already if it was up to him .. Holl likely sits next week too

Anyone got any updates on Kase? Hope he is clear of his double vision and migraines. My friend in sports sciences has gone quiet which I don't think is a good sign. He was a big contributor and will be missed if done.

I feel for Kase...dude looked good for Boston but always out with injury. He's been fantastic/fits the TML mold. IMO I can't see how he would survive a playoff format. Scary situation for him and his future.

No wonder .. thanks for info .. well maybe he can come back for a few games late in season if he is feeling better

Here's hoping. But most important is his health long term.

Ondrej Kase goes on LTIR, the Leafs make three emergency recalls

@Ondrej Kase's latest injury was suspected to keep him out of the line...

Agreed .. 100% his health is his life .. what threw me off was when Keefer said what he did and my buddy told me something completely different .. but likely just Keefer being Keefer and Kase is a warrior so he likely told Keefer he wanted back on ice .. and I get that I would have said same thing too

One of my more favourite signings in a while
Sad to see him go.

But he's also taking a huge risk. I hope he stays healthy
