Injury Report: Simek

[The Ice Hockey Dude]

Simek posted to Instagram a photo after workout. Looked good.

at 0 and 3 we need him and his physical play back for sure.

 

[LadyStanley]

Not there yet. (Prout might be back sooner)

Is he able to be sent down for conditioning to the Barracuda before coming back?

Sure, at the very least a conditioning assignment seems in order.

 

[Nighthock]

Okay, good. I'm unclear what the rules are when doing so.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Okay, good. I'm unclear what the rules are when doing so.

He has to agree to it though. That's the only catch on conditioning assignments.

Heal fast dudes

A good reminder of why injury news coming from the organization should be taken with a massive grain of salt. Simek was supposed to be on an accelerated timeline.

I swear, if Prout subs in for Ferraro...

get ready for it. Deboer hates Dmen playing on their offside.

He'll sub in for Heed because DeBoer doesn't like Heed. It's what happens when Simek comes back that should concern Ferraro.

Even then I suspect they’ll play somebody on their right side as opposed to scratching Ferraro.

 

[Sysreq]

I think DeBoer likes Ferraro and dislikes Heed. I would expect the line up to follow this basis.

That is an option but I don't have faith in any of Ferraro, Simek, or Dillon to play well on the right side. Then again, Heed and Prout are not likely to play well on the right side either so it doesn't matter much. I'd probably put Dillon there before anyone else but who knows what they end up doing?

Just put vlasic on the right so he can finally live as Marc edouard orr

lol but then we're stuck with Dillon with Karlsson. Screw that! Besides, Dillon is the reason why Vlasic can't wear 4!

That would still mean that Prout is taking a spot in the lineup over Ferraro.

That would still mean that Prout is taking a spot in the lineup over Ferraro.

I'd rather he play in the AHL on the left side over on the right in the NHL. If they're not interested in moving Dillon over then let him play with the Barracuda for a while until they make the spot open for him. It wouldn't be a big deal, imo.

 

[LadyStanley]

Someday they will be available

 

[LadyStanley]

Wednesday is early. School game.

Can't wait for Simek's comeback to help this team not at all.

Well, i think he will help. We need more physical players and that's what he is - generally we are
a pretty soft team in my opinion. While more physical play will help, not sure it would make the difference between being 4-7-1 and being 7-4-1.
