Did the Flyers have a timeline for how long Neuvirth is gonna be out.

Did the Flyers have a timeline for how long Neuvirth is gonna be out.

This is the list from the previous page:

• Sean Couturier has a right knee injury (Aug, 22) but is expected to play later this preseason.
• Alex Lyon has a lower body injury, speculated as a groin pull, and will be out four weeks from Sept. 20.
• Andrew MacDonald was originally expected out about six weeks from Sept. 11 due to a lower body injury. He was listed as slightly ahead of schedule on Sept. 17 and could return by the regular season opener.
• Sam Morin has a torn ACL in his right knee (May 2018) and could return around February 2019.
• Michal Neuvirth has a lower body injury, speculated as a groin pull, and no timetable for his return has been issued (Sept. 22) although he is not expected to be ready for the season opener.
• Travis Sanheim is expected to miss about one week from Sept. 17 due to an upper body injury speculated as shoulder.
• Wayne Simmonds had surgery May 1 to repair a pelvis tear on his right side and a torn abdominal muscle on his left side. He could return for opening night if not sooner.

This goalie situation is crazy...the only one who's injury free, or not recovering from summer surgery, or 2017-18 surgery, is Hart.

Two of three of Leaf's McIlhenney, Sparks and Pickard will be available via waivers any day now, all have 1 year contracts remaining, none paid more than $800k. Cheap way to acquire cheap insurance for this insane situation?

At this point...who are the backups in LHV?

Everytime I see what kind of thing did Simmonds play through last year, I am in awe..

Couturier and knee injury. Is it the same knee? Even if not it's a bit concerning.

I agree, grab one just to have a healthy guy.

 

[Striiker]

What's the point? As soon as they get here they'll be injured by the hockey gods.

Stolarz or Lyon, if they get thru waivers.

Lyon is only going to miss the first 3 games. Maybe not even that if he recovers faster.
