WEEI Patrice Bergeron, David Backes miss practice, making both questionable for season opener

That would be extremely important and an excellent point if it were true. Unfortunately for you, as others have shown already, it's not. Therefore your point is pretty much in line with most of your posts in your HF Boards career -- I.e. Essentially just plain fictitious. Need to pick up your game -- wish we had a GM that could consider waiving you.

He's on the de-cline.

No Bergeron and no Backes and no Krug..... Not a good start......

Players in their 30’s should be on testosterone replacement therapy. Nothing wrong with slowing down the natural decline of testosterone with modern medicine. Didn’t Seidenberg use stem cell therapy to help with his knee injury? Use the technology available today.

I agree with the other posters. I'd rather Bergy miss a game or two and heal up. Especially now than risk making it worst and being out longer period or playing hurt half the year. Heal up 100% and come back ready to go.

Backes meh. Not a huge loss. Just sick, he'll be back soon. No need to get everyone sick. One of the kids can play a game or two not a huge deal.

Krug is a loss for sure but he'll be back soon. We know the deal there.

I hate to say it, but get used to this. We all get older and in the NHL you get old really quick. I look for this to happen on a regular basis. He hasn't played a game since last spring and he's not ready to go. Too bad, bud this is what happens.

Can we merge with the Duschene thread? Ouch
