Injury Report: Updates In 1st Post | Letang Out vs CBJ

[Randy Butternubs]

That typo hurts me.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

If it was a concussion though they would have said it and he wouldn’t have been placed on IR immediately since you never know how soon he’d be ready...it’s definitely shoulder, arm or wrist or collarbone going on

You're probably right. I was just basing it on his reaction. I've never had a serious shoulder injury, but wouldn't he be in more pain than he appeared to be? Like I said, from the replay he looked more dazed than in pain, hence why I thought maybe head related.

Sorry mang

So a mid playoff return at the earliest, and even that sounds optimistic.

Optimistic about his return? Or optimistic about making the playoffs?

His return. I still see them making it without him.

I think that depends on the injury. I don’t think it’s his collarbone but Kane broke his on 24/02/15 and was ready for game 1 in 15/04/15. Google has the recovery time as 4-8 weeks for most fractures and Kane was supposedly 12 weeks. I just don’t think it’s his collarbone. If it’s his shoulder then who the hell knows without them giving more info. There’s also healthy and “it’s the playoffs so they’ll be insane idiots and play through some ridiculous things.”

With his history and this team I’d expect the worst, though.

 

[Gurglesons]

Maatta’s third injury on that shoulder.

God, his play in combination with that makes him a rough sell to try and move.

I'm not sure that's the best way to judge. When Schultz got injured he looked more in shock than in pain.

Olli Maatta to miss at least a month with shoulder separation

Should have done it when he was the next Lidstrom.

Welp ... there it is.

I expected worse, tbh.

The plot thickens ...

 

[ZeroPucksGiven]

Please no ZAR...we've had enough of him

 

[Nakawick]

Was he stealing the food?

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

How long does Schultz need to be full go in practice to play in a game?

Until he is ready to play 20 mins. The way our defense sucks right now, I don't rush him back. Can't afford to be without him rest of the year, too.

Yes but we are on the brink of a playoff spot we really don’t have a big luxury to let him take extra time. Feel like he’s been practicing for weeks now. Let’s go!

Even if Schultz is ready it would seem like a bad idea to play him in b2b games when hes first coming back from a long injury.

Maybe he will play in Sunday's game.

Play Schultz like it's the '16 playoffs!

Maybe they should do that with Johnson...get him immediately off the ice

 

[DegenX]

Four months, more or less ...

[Malkinstheman]

IMO he will play sunday for sure. They won't start him with a back to back.
