Sticky this please....add to it with dates and reputable media sources
Figured this should be up and visible. People keep asking about it and aren't seeing the replies in the GDT's and other threads.
1/31 - Pre game show
D Evans commented that "he may" be experiencing swelling and inflammation from the increased strength training and rehab work.
*Darryl said "he may". He didn't say it was an absolute, but referenced that it's common for this to happen as players work themselves back from surgery.
*I (yes me) began to speculate this over a week ago, when he started to not practice. I had the same surgery and experienced swelling problems that lead to discomfort, reduced range of motion and reduced confidence in the knee. My call, from my experience, from the same surgery. Take it for what's it is.
2/2 - John Hoven Tweet

For everybody asking... doctors/trainers have cleared @Willie_Mitch33 to play, but knee is still a prob. Hasn't skated all week. Return TBD.
