Sean Couturier Reportedly Re-Injures Right Knee

[hatcher]

This team is soft and injuered the whole works almost. No cups in site.

Hollywood........what are using to strangle yourself? Bare hands, rope or wire?

What is the bright side of this: Maybe Patrick first line? Giroux second and Frost third??

Currently soaking my feet in concrete.

What's funny is it's your favorite players that are doing the most to keep them from a cup.

Guy like Hagg are exactly what's wrong with this team. Meanwhile you hate the good players on the team because they're not useless goons.

This is why people should just get things repaired in the offseason.

Also, I’m assuming this doesn’t hurt Frost’s chances.

Any chance you have to not going under the knife you take it.
This sucks, but it is what it is.

...A Rick Tocchet type of player would fit in nicely!
Hard nosed and very effective!
Don't ya think?

MCL strains don't usually require surgery. Even if they are grade 3 like this one.

Eric Staal suffered MCL sprain, avoids surgery | CBC Sports

Sanheim also suffered an MCL strain in the AHL playoffs. Based on how long he was out, I would guess he and Couturier both had grade 2 MCL sprains.

• A grade 1 MCL injury is the least severe. It means that your ligament has been stretched but not torn.
• A grade 2 MCL injury means that your ligament has been partially torn. This usually causes some instability in your knee joint.
• A grade 3 MCL injury is the most severe type of ligament injury. It occurs when your ligament has been completely torn. Joint instability is common in a grade 3 MCL sprain.

When have Flyers doctors ever properly diagnosed an injury?

He's such a huge part of the team i hope he recovers quickly.

Well find me one of them that we can add and I'll be on board.

I look forward to coots missing time and Hack keeping Giroux on the wing.

Patrick
Lehtera
Laughton
Vorb

What a great center lineup he will run....

Just remember: no one here has seen Sean Couturier’s medical records.

 

[Lotusflower]

What were Couts previous injuries. At some point it seems like he has had a series injury each year since 14-15 season

2018-19: possible re injured knee
2017-18: torn MCL
2016-17:
2015-16: knee + shoulder

What was the injury in 2016-17 again? I know he only play 60+ games. Was that the knee injury vs Florida or was that 2015-16 season?

He got his collarbone broke by Ovechkin in the playoffs in 2016

I saw them no more than an hour ago.

But like I said before HIPAA laws require that I can't disclose anything about them. I'm right and you're wrong.

Good thing I hit the beer store last night.

Bloody hell.

He would have played on any cup team. I love Lindros,Poulin,Howe,Sinasalo,Eklund etc forsure because they played there hearts out. This group of stars are losers and will need another team to suceed.

Great hit. That was half throttle too.

That's what scares me. If coots misses time G 100% should be back at center.

Oh yeah? I'm an attorney, so I don't even NEED to see the medical records, because of my huge brain.

Pretty simple solution at center if he misses an extended period of time. Move Giroux back to center and you can still roll 3 quality lines or a very good top 6.

JVR-Giroux-Voracek
Konecny-Patrick-Simmonds
Lindblom-Frost/Laughton-Raffl
X-Vorobyev/Laughton-X

Raffl-Giroux-Voracek
JVR-Patrick-Konecny
Lindblom-Frost/Laughton-Simmonds

Nothing earthshattering here.

Yeah, but history shows that Hak won't do that.*

*Am I allowed to make that argument if i've never seen Hak's medical records to know if he actually has a brain, a heart, or courage?

That’s good. I was thinking 6 weeks.


Only good things here is that Coots doesn’t need an MCL like the rest of us. And frost hopefully makes the team.
