Matthews Thread III: Injured Update Monday

[ScottishCanuck]

No, pretty much everyone agrees it’s a clean hit.

You obviously weren't here during the meltdown last night

Although I agree that everyone Leaf fan with common sense (i.e. the majority) considers the hit to be clean.

That sucks, but they still have Tavares and Kadri lol.

It's early to call him injury-prone, but it's something to watch. Back to back years he's had significant shoulder injuries, not to mention back injuries in his draft year.

Agent: Auston Matthews suffered 'minor back injury'

For the record, anyone grateful that a player got hurt is pretty scummy

Which is every non-leaf fan. They had a party here yesterday.

No they didn't.

Oh so very unfortunate for such a classy fanbase on HF

There are no classy fanbases on this site. It's devolved into an epic crap spewing fest all around.

Get off the cross.

You are making BS up.

Cry me a river. Leafs have been downright abusive to islander fans this off-season. I have no sympathy for leaf fans and their persecution complex anymore.

Islanders fans weren't innocent either. Alot of them wishing nothing but the worst for Tavares and talking mad crap about him, they deserved the "abuse" they got in return.

get real no one wants to see players get hurt. I took satisfaction seeing Matthews shut out 3.5 straight games without a point. not in seeing him hurt. it's just people goofing around. relax .

You won't see them now because they were deleted. I was here. I know what I saw. Injuries happen and they will remain competitive. Tavares on the #1 line and Kadri on the 2nd. Life is hard.

Haven’t seen any celebrating Matthews being injured but I sure saw a ton of Leaf fans posting with pure joy when McDavid had his collar bone broken in his rookie season.

A lot of sports fans in general are happy when players they dislike get injured. It's dumb, but you can't say it's not true when you see at least a a little bit of smack talk whenever any star player gets injured.

And I never saw what you claim to have seen regarding McDavid's injury, so either we're all crazy and imagining things, or the mods did their jobs and deleted all the moronic posts before we got to see them.

I was also here and I know what I saw.

You're talking bollocks.

Forgot about that. But so f'in true. And you don't see Oilers fans play victim card for eternity because of it.

No accuracy in what you are claiming.

I'm confident in that.

Babcock said that it’s not the same shoulder as last year. Not sure if that makes it better news.

Maybe the dude should wear real shoulder pads. It almost looks like bare shoulder under the jersey they're so small.

This thread has become a discussion about fans discussing his injury than a discussion about the injury itself. Closed.

Plus, there's no new information until tomorrow.
