Tank for Austin Matthews
#LoseForMatthews2015
Really sucks to hear about Max. An inadequate offseason training for our one and only reliable goal-scorer obviously doesn't bode well for this offensively challenged squad.

Not sure what problem is, he'll be back in time for the season, if not missing a little time or just being a bit rusty. It gives the rookies and young guys a chance for a bigger role. I think it's fantastic. If max misses a few games it's not the end of the world and guys like Scherbak, Hudon and others will get a shot at a mini try out.

Problem isn't with the length of the injury....problem has to be the injury itself. Yeah, players have injuries all the time and often they comeback like nothing happens....but what if it does? What if he's more tentative for at least half of a year? How will he come back? What kind of injuries are we talking about?

Max will be ready for the season and even if he wasn't.....last time he was injured we had some success with the EGG line and Plekanec was playing with scrubs like Bournival/Gionta/Briere and we have still better options than that right now
Did you included 2013-2014 numbers? You know that 1pts in 17 games away from Max....

Not that it matters but you would also need to include the 43 games he played in his rookie year (albeit, he did play some pp time with Patches).

Welcome.
Yep, if there's any team that can't complain about injuries over the past couple of years, it's us.
Man...
let's hope not. You could very well be right though.So much for a quick start to the season! The Habs will be looking up to a lot of Atlantic Division teams in October.

This could have a big impact on the seasson... If he out 12 week it is a significant injury probably a grade 2 or 3 sprain of the MCL, ACL would probably have required surgery / 26 weeks, meniscus tear would have a only be few weeks. I just hope he get back to 100%

Not good. Markov recovered well, but max had very good straight line speed. That may have been effected, and this was max's bread and butter. Hopefully goes well. I guess we won't see him going into the corners any time soon..oh wait.

Second most interesting man in the world.
I have a lot of respect for his professionalism. Something tells me that he will put in his characteristic effort in rehab as he does in off-ice training, and be ready ahead of schedule. That said, this may be an opportunity for younger players to show what they've got, crisis being synonymous with opportunity and all that.
This injury is not really a big deal....all it can do is make max hungrier...he will and should be ready by game 1...
What this can do for the young players close to making the team is give one more of them some chances to shine in pre-season. I see this as a chance for a youngster to shine...
Max will be ready for the season...this is not a season ending injury or a playoff injury...this is a summer workout injury.....
We have nothing to be worried about.

I agree with the bolded, but its really impossible to say if the injury will linger. Knee injuries have a habit of doing so.
This is my main worry, Max is a fast customer and knees are a critical piece of that.

Its just an excuse to withhold naming a captain
They want Pacioretty, butbhe hasn't delivered the goods

Get yourself together, if there is one thing that cannot be denied about max, it's his work ethics. Saying otherwise is just you trying to stir some unneeded ********
So yeah, ********

please
I don't think you read what he was saying properly.
I agree with his point to some extent, but a knee injury specifically is worrying, especially for a guy who relies on his speed like Max.

I just realized I quoted the wrong post. Not gonna edit it out because my idiocy doesn't deserve it. Also, it's 5 am... Carry on!

I'm not really against that line. Might be the best 3rd line we've iced in years!
