Y'all have to much power
No idea. I wish we knew more, I've always been a fan of his and would like to see him healthy and flourishing in some role.

Has Harrington, or anyone else written stories about the injuries/medical team at all? This one of those stories I wish the beat writers would grab onto and just hammer the team over and over and over again until they are forced to address it.

"Fixing" the medical staff isn't something that's likely to occur midseason. Adams has been a straight shooter so far......so if he says it's on his radar, I believe him. I imagine it's going to get quite the scrutiny in the offseason.

It's bigger than the medical staff.
You have three different groups that contribute to keeping players healthy:
- S&C/Sports Science
- Athletic Trainers
- Medical staff
Plus, you also need to figure out what types of injuries you can improve with those groups and which are just a part of the game.
For instance, it's not on any of those three groups that Quinn got mono and Tokarski dealt with long COVID. And the S&C staff can't affect something like how Subban was injured almost immediately upon becoming a Sabre.
I think the whole situation with Mitts is a systemic thing that could lead to improvements.
And I would pay Mike Boyle to be a S&C consultant that overhauls that side of things. But, that's just me.
Very strange with Zemgus. I remember Granato said that Zemgus will be back after ASG. Now he is week to week.

He will be. Between now and the end of the season is after the ASG.

Zemgus is doing more rehab this week. He may join practice early next week.Very strange with Zemgus. I remember Granato said that Zemgus will be back after ASG. Now he is week to week.
They're listing Casey as day-to-day and UPL is set back in net for Rochester on their road trip.

Do we want that? I forget half of these numbers. Do we want names attached to that?
That being said, if we do, the mod in charge better do [as an example 25-LW-C (number, position, first initial of last name) so I know who I miss or don’t miss

"Full attendance........but they're still missing Zemgus and Vinnie. And Quinn. And Caggiula. And Miller. Oh, and Subban"
Yeah, I think it was more that they whole team came out for the morning skate than it was an complete injury update. The perils of twitter.

Injury and return to play research might be interesting.

To be fair, torn toenails can be painful AF. And then stuffing them into a skate? Ick.
Then again, I'm sure team docs could have given him a shot to numb it up to play.
