If the injury is so obvious why are you complaining about them not disclosing anything about it? It's not obvious and why would the team want to tip their hand to let the opponent know when the player will be back, to what extent the injury will continue to hamper their play, and exactly where to target the player when he does return. I have absolutely no problem with things being kept a secret especially during the playoffs. I'll never understand why some fans think were entitled to this information, and at this point don't get why people think things will change and the team will start disclosing injury information. Every team does it and that won't change until theres some kind of rule put in place, which will never happen.
First of all, this is more than just a typical injury that sidelines a player for a while. This has the potential to be very serious, and in worst case scenario career ending. People are concerned, not that Zucc wont return to the series, but to know if Zucc will be ok.
Second, the opponents already know that this is a injury to the head. So what is there really more to hide? If the opponents really want to sink that low and go for cheapshots against Zucc´s head if he returns, that is just disgusting.
I just want to know that the kid is ok. As I said, right now I don´t give a **** about him returning to the playoffs, as long as he will be all right.
Hopefully we will know today.
Btw, they are for sure doing a good job keeping this a secret. Not a single word about this in norwegian media, and the articles about him gettin hit by the puck was without any drama, and the expect him to be back to 2nd round. Believe me, if there were news about his injury, especially bad ones, it would be the main headline in the papers here.
