Malkin having a mysterious injury every year is getting old... and really weird.

He's a tall, lanky guy so it doesn't really surprise me that he's hardly ever going to healthy for an entire season. It would be nice if the org was a little more honest and upfront about things though.

Good thing too... seeing as how he was supposed to miss two games.

So it's real comforting to know he looks "not too far removed" considering "weeks" was never the expectations set by the team to begin with.

What a terrible image.

Yeah, well, we'll see how he feels after skating hard. Tuesday it will be "Geno is skating and making progress... he's had a slight setback and will be reevaluated after the weekend."

He should be good to go by training camp.

I mean... let's not go too crazy, here. He came to training camp THIS year in seemingly good health. I think two years in a row is expecting a bit too much from the guy, don't you?

Crediting vabm8 now for calling it.

I knew it... So many haters here, gosh. :facepalm: Pretty sure it's up to the trainers and coaches when he returns.

I hope that most of the injured guys will be back by/in March because it's going to be a brutal month.

I didn't factor in the inevitable hobbled WC appearance. My bad.

I'm not hating. I'm just tired of the same old song and dance when it comes to the team, injuries and this particular player. I really don't think I can be too harshly judged for that. This isn't anything new. Boy do I wish it were.

Well, s**t like this sometimes happens in a game of hockey.
