It isn't about it being surprising, it is about a worrying trend of "oh he'll play soon, everything is fine" and it being continously put off.
Any short term actions to keep him away from exhibition games now has nothing to do with how the rest of his career will go.

If he misses the start of the regular season then I will be slightly concerned but at this point, I think it is just being cautious and expect to see him in the final 2 games so he hits the ice against the Canes ready to go.

Does MacEwan do anything notable tonight ?

Or is he just a guy getting passed by Jarvi and Smejkal

Wonder if keep pushing Norris back has anything to do with Pinto.

If plays a game, can’t go on LTIR to start season.
Yea don't see that.

Jobs are on the line ...

Breakaway or semi breakaway , stretch pass up the middle, broke up a nice play, those are 2 things I recall.
Oh and a nice hit.
But ya the other 2 are definitely more skilled. So depends if you want an enforcer or not, with Jackeye (X…..), Reaves and Lucic in division, you definitely need it some of the time. Whether he wins or not.

If healthy, which playing a game would qualify, can’t go on LTIR. If keep pushing back first game played, they can get away with it.
I mean, if he tweaks something after or during the game, he's not healthy.

I think the idea that he wouldn't be cleared before the season starts is a bit hard to swallow, they've already said he'd be playing already if it were a couple days from the start of the season,

If he gets a circumcision, I think we get to lower his cap hit by 1% or more, depending on how much they take off.
It's a good thing that the next season starts soon.

I don't believe them. Have they ever lied to us before?
