Injury Report: Max Pacioretty Injured - 12 weeks recovery expected

[groovejuice]

Wonder how the injury happened, three months is no joke.

Off ice training.

 

[ArtPeur]

Don't worry guys, we have so much depth: Kassian, DSP and Weise will cover for him

 

[WeThreeKings]

This doesn't help Chucky.. if anything it will guarantee a start at LW for him.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

I'd expect 8 weeks for him, maybe less. On the other hand, if Patches goes down, he can bring DD with him

 

[De Montreal]

This doesn't help Chucky.. if anything it will guarantee a start at LW for him.

Maybe Chucky holds back contract and we ice this lineup for game 1 :

DSP - Plekanec - Gallagher
Hudon - Desharnais - Kassian
DLR - Eller - Weise
Flynn - Mitchell - Thomas

I'm all for it if we get Auston Matthews!

This doesn't help Chucky.. if anything it will guarantee a start at LW for him.

I think that was likely determined anyway.

Well game is against Toronto so it will be a win regardless.

 

[Kid Dynomite]

At least it's the off-season.

 

[malton]

If he's not good to start the season a young guy can really take advantage. Make it a good situation.

 

[The Nightman]

Put Carey and PK in bubble wrap, the hockey gods are out to get us after a season with hardly any injuries.

 

[Miller Time]

Sucks because patches is a guy who thrives in part bc of his excellent conditioning & offseason prep. While he'll probably be back to start the season (or very early), won't be surprised if he starts slow & runs out of gas early next year.

Good thing we've added offensive depth to lighten the burden & give us more goal scoring options..... Oh, wait... We didn't

Yep, hopefully a Young gun can take his chance to show what he can do in the top 6

Weise is still (relatively) young, he fits nicely

 

[68*]

**** this sucks. This will affect his off season training a lot. No knees no serious lifting.

 

[expy]

So who's going to bail out Desharnais now?

 

[Smokey Thompson]

At least he won't need surgery... maybe he just sprained it.

 

[ThaDevilGirl]

So who's going to bail out Desharnais now?

DSP-DD-Gally.

 

[Hackett]

Im always uncomfortable with the idea of players missing camp/training. It can throw a wrench into their whole season.

 

[le_sean]

Like 3 normal months or 3 Max months?

Because 3 normal months for him is like 1 week.

 

[knuck]

So ...

neck fracture
2 concussions
shoulder injury
knee injury

I know he's wolverine and all but it's a little scary that's he's been through so much already. How long will he be able to play ?

Depends when Desharnais is traded

And he doesn't even play OVERLY physically. Just some bad luck.

 

[emeyezee]

So.... Patrick Sharp?

 

[Alex514]

Ouch.

Doesn't sound too good.

Hopefully he recovers fully on time for the start of the season!
