That hit looked pretty nasty. We probably won't know anything until tomorrow but I'll be surprised if it's not at least a couple of weeks for Mrazek.
Injuries happen and I have to say I hope Mrazek's injury isn't serious, and he makes a quick recovery, but I'm also excited about finally seeing Ned.

I haven't heard anything about Mrazek's injury. But it sounded like Reimer was willing to go against Toronto in the 3rd if it got too out of hand.
Of course, the goalie coach also added that "it would have been a really bad idea" and that they would have had to change Reimer's style of play to deal with his injury.
But I'm assuming that means Mrazek is probably worse off than Reimer.

Aho!
Yeah, I didn't expect Petr back anytime soon. He got his bell rung. My guess is we are without him for at least 2 weeks, maybe three.

I detest this. Once you imprison your mind in the Shackles of Fear, you rarely, IF EVER, break free.

Gentlemen. It's the 21st century now.
Okay, so I work in a nursing home and this tweet has my recreational therapists cracking-up because apparently the leading manufacturer of this equipment is called WanderGuard.
They don't just beep...they cut into the overhead PA to announce the location of the set-off sensor. We can totally program it in RBA's voice to announce "No. Mrazek. Get your *** back to the crease."

So it sounds like Mrazek was on the exercise bike today, and with RBA's backtracking of "Long term for me is like a week", maybe we'll see one of our regular backup goaltenders instead of our AHL backup goaltender in the nearish future?
My wife will volunteer for an alternate voice option.
I just need to work with her on not reflexively calling every goalie who wanders out of the paint "Cameron."

I mentioned it in the Pesce thread, and although it was wrong for him, Brindy has used such terminology before, and it's been way off. He used similar for Marty this last injury, and he really wasn't gone that long.
Mrazek needs to find the Shea Weber "near-death-no-just-career-threatening-no-just-long-term-no-a-few-weeks-no-he's-playing-tomorrow" recovery plan.

I still think Clifford deserved more than a 2 for that.
Doesn't matter where a goalie is. He's untouchable.

Limited viewings, of course, but I liked Forsberg much more than Ned.

I like that Ned battled back yesterday, but he's a little too all over the place. Just a bit twitchy whatever you think of his long term abilities. Forsberg just seemed a bit better and calmer. I think that'll serve us better right now.
Most importantly, for all the flack the main guys take, hopefully they'll be taken for granted a little less now. Welcome back Petr.

We have a Mrazek/McElhinney with Mrazek/Reimer.

We do not have a Mrazek/McElhinney with Mrazek/Ned. We’d have a Mrazek/Mrazek.
You can’t have two battlers. You need the battler and you need the calmer, bigger guy. The battler can go on insane hot streaks like Mrazek did last year, and the calmer guy can step in when the battler is fighting his game.
I don’t view this stretch as an indictment of Ned’s future. Frankly, he looked a lot like Mrazek.
