[Kessely Snipes]

Ugh...

 

[Roboholic]

Awesome

 

[Raging Bull]

Guy just can't stay healthy.

 

[Hanta Yo]

right after that new contract.

 

[Morlesio14*]

About how long?

 

[DPyro]

Should be back mid - late February.

 

[BarneyStinson]

Ahhhhh Damnit.

 

[R McD]

Crap. As much as I love Lupel and thinks hes fantastic on and off the ice, the 5 year extension has me worried given his history of injuries, and the fact that hes one of our few who will get in front of the goalie and take a beating. Sigh.....

Try taking a shot to your hand and see if you can stay healthy

 

[Warden of the North]

Was that said in the broadcsat or do you have a link to support it?

 

[BarneyStinson]

It was a fluke injury, not like he reinjured his older ones.

 

[BBLeafsFan]

Wow, that sucks. Hope he recovers quickly. Wonder who gets the call up?

 

[DPyro]

At best 3-4 weeks. At worst 6-8.

 

[Erdinger]

Although he's injury prone I wouldn't be too worried in the long term over this. Broken hand could happen to any ironman of a player. Just one of those things

 

[BayStBullies]

Was it Komisarek who shot it?

 

[Leafidelity]

Wow, that sucks. Hope he recovers quickly. Wonder who gets the call up?

Frattin

 

[I Believe]

That is seriously unlucky.

So whats the timeline on a fracture exactly?

 

[AINEC*]

Hopefully he's not out too long...

 

[Rob Brown]

As per who?

 

[Mojo19]

You sure it was his hand?

It looked like it hit him either in the upper or lower right arm... can't imagine a puck breaking the humerus but I guess it could be possible.

Either way this definitely ****ing sucks, hope he can recover quickly!

 

[Morlesio14*]

Well JVR on line 1 anyone?

 

[Leafs at Knight]

It was a fluke injury, not like he reinjured his older ones.

Exactly .

 

[ConnorTO]

sigh

X-rays revealed a fracture

You just made up the diagnosis or what?

I don't think I heard anyone say this yet. No way the results come this quickly and magically to you.
