Flyers announce Max Talbot is out indefinitely with a broken left leg. His season is likely over.

 

[Curufinwe]

All because of that lousy breakaway goal as the powerplay expired.

 

[Oranges]

Wow we just cant catch a break this year. This sucks.

 

[AaronTrieu]

will the injuries ever end?

That really, really sucks...

alright, good win last night but lets be honest, this team aint going anywhere in the playoffs. we're basically a bantam team with a superstar on it

would be hilarious to make 8th seed just to get in Pitt's head again

 

[dingbathero]

Wow...

 

[JDinkalage Morgoone]

So seriously, who slots in? Move Schenn back to C and put McGinn at wing? Call up Holmstrom? What gives?

Or trade for Clowe appairently

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Holy ****... this team... this year... Get better soon Talbot!

 

[Karma]

and the bad season gets worse.

 

[Danglous]

What a shame. His line was doing such a great job last night

 

[Flyerfan4life]

wow, i suspected a knee injury, but would never have guessed a broken leg..

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Um, okay.

Poor Max; he had been playing well in the last 15 games or so.

Agreed, especially with Fleury in net, getting in his head almost means a guaranteed win.

I have a source in the organization that says the bone went through his skin. Just awful

 

[Jtown]

Of all the possibilities ( torn Achilles , torn knee ligaments) this is by far the best one.

We are going to miss him big time.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Holy ****.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

that does suck. Talbot brings things to the ice that dont always show up on the scoresheet. he will be missed on the ice and in the room.

 

[Ryker]

Broken leg is so sad. Especially when Max was seemingly playing his best hockey so far, guess some of our depth will really be tested now.

Yeah, he was really good these past few games, and I think he's going to be hard to replace. McGinn has shown he can play, but Max was awesome on the penalty kill, as well. Things are definitely not going to be the same with him being replaced by someone like McGinn or Zolnierczyk. Harry can bring the energy, but I'm not sure his banging of bodies is anywhere near as effective as what Max was doing.

im not a fan of Harry Z. Harry Z, is horrible defensively. I would stick McGinn in there and see what he can do.

It is not the best one. The person I spoke to said his bone ripped through his skin.

 

[StevensCakeBakerBacker]

Talbot and that poor kid in the NCAA tourney from Louisville both suffer terrible leg breaks during routine plays.

 

[Hockeypete49]

Just a brutal year. Here's hoping Max gets well. One of the good guys.
