The very next sentence in my post expressed concerns over this being a long term injury:
"I just hope it's not another Orlov situation or anything like that."
Thanks for showing the restraint to not "nitpik" me by dropping the "[this has] the potential for being worse" knowledge. Awesome insight. The drop off from Bealge to someone like Stephenson or Richards for two months is not a major issue
IF Beagle comes back healthy after that. And I'm one of those who's been happy with Chim-Beag-TWil as the 3rd line all season while many others have been asking for an "upgrade" at 3C. The question remains, has there been further word on what the injury/surgery is, such that we might know what his chances of returning this season are?
