Player Discussion Victor Olofsson (2014, 181st) - Part II (Heading to UFA, Playing at the WCs)

[EichHart]

Only caught the end of the game tonight and didn't see Olofsson out there but he was dressed. Did he leave hurt or get benched?

He got hurt in 2nd period I believe. Ankle injury looks like.

Non-contact lower body injury. Didn't return. Didn't look good. No news until tomorrow.

He hurt his leg (probably ankle, maybe knee?) in the 3rd when it slipped out under him while turning. I don't anyone would he surprised if he has to miss games.

In the 3rd during the game tying goal. Caught an edge and then he went down weirdly over his right leg.

 

[Intermission]

He (Vic) is lucky if that's not awfully bad.

 

[allsilverdreams]

Fu** that didn't look good.
He's my new favorite player to watch besides Jack.Hope he's ok

[old kummelweck]

Bummer for VO.

 

[Icicle]

that sucks, he was having a great rookie year and showing progress.

 

[tsujimoto74]

f***
f*** f*** f***

That sucks.

 

[Zman5778]

Mother f*****.

 

[Rowley Birkin]

Sorry guys. I've had VO on my fantasy since the start of the season.

As a result this was bound to happen sooner or later. Its like a curse.

 

[explore]

Damn, five-to-six weeks and if it's a high-ankle sprain, he won't be 100% when he gets back. No calder for him, and playoff chances for the Sabres took another nosedive.

 

[Sabre the Win]

Negative: A team with 1 scoring line is now at half a scoring line.

Positive: Save some money with VO not winning the Calder.

 

[Snippit]

Well that’s the nail in the coffin

Down to 2 top six forwards for the next several weeks

Feel bad for the kid

 

[Fjordy]

Sucksssss

We've seen high ankle sprains around these parts before. If it is a high ankle sprain (no confirmation), we won't see the real VO again until next year...........

I have him and guenztal

 

[1point21Gigawatts]

Almost certainly a high ankle sprain. That's unfortunate considering his position in the calder race...oh and our anemic top 6. I hope he recovers completely.

 

[valet]

5-6 weeks. Dang. I wonder what our lines are gonna look like without VO in the lineup.

 

[joshjull]

We can’t have nice things

 

[sabrebuild]

This sucks. Was really enjoying how he was playing.

God forbid, but we are a Jack Eichel, Reinhart or Dahlin injury away from chasing the Devils for last place.
