This camp is getting quite deadly

These guys haven't played any serious intensity hockey since March. and suddenly they have to go full speed into season w/o much prep time. I'm betting we'll see a lot more injuries from every team.

Unfortunately you’re probably right.

 

[couture23]

Not good.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

Not good.

From descriptions given elsewhere, it sounds like a pretty nasty injury. I'm SPECULATING possibly a torn groin requiring a surgical mend?

Those take forever to heal.

 

[SundherDome]

Hope it's not this. I remember watching this game.

That was the first thought I had when I saw the play.

surely he tore a glute? You can’t.. do that other thing.. in a sporting environment, at least- right?

Although good god would that be a fun way to mess with the media.

..also goddammit no I was hoping it looked worse than it was for Girgensons. Hoping against hope the reports are false.

You can and more specifically you can. I hoped girgs would be fine too but that opens the door to someone to prove they belong. Also it sucks it happened the day before his birthday

Eichel's back...

Sabres' Jack Eichel: Present at practice

 

[CanadianCoyote]

Girgs out long-term.

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

 

[WeDislikeEich]

Damn, that sucks.

 

[couture23]

Poor Girgs. At least he'll have lots of time with his newborn.

 

[CanadianCoyote]

This also only makes the loss of Larsson for nothing sting all the worse in hindsight. Really not any positive angle to spin it besides it giving some of the prospects a shot.

Am I the only one who had an uncomfortable thought reading the bolded, immediately after reading a snippit about tearing one's anus?

 

[Member 308457]

I wouldn't mind seeing Peterka get the opportunity.

 

[UnleashRasmus]

Good to have Eichel back. I feel for Zemgus, who had a spot locked down. I would assume this means Asplund should make the team potentially. R2 could have a better shot now.

Won't be possible until the end of the year.

Lazar and Okposo, both of whom are expected to contribute in the bottom six, are day to day with lower-body injuries. Their status for the season opener Thursday against the Washington Capitals in KeyBank Center is uncertain.

Taxi squad might be too short
