Ouch!

You OK? Need a bandaid?

You OK? Need a bandaid?

Makar and Rantanen used them all up.

 

[Bubba Thudd]

Makar and Rantanen used them all up.

They were used. Wilson had them first.

 

[Ararana]

No MacKinnon at regular practice. All injured guys taking part, all but Makar in red.

We’re going to get spanked tonight.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Just a morning skate. Guys miss them all the time. He could still play.

 

[Raucherhusten]

No MacKinnon at regular practice. All injured guys taking part, all but Makar in red.

Of course he isn't.

Losing Vlad2 too just makes sense. Hasn't been injured yet. As an AV at least.

Man i'm depressed.

Makar is in a regular jersey.

 

[Avs_19]

Lost Namestnikov too now? Damn.

Kaut must be an emergency call up for him again.

 

[mapletreemarty]

Makar is in a regular jersey.

Over/under on Bednar riding Makar for 25 mins tonight??

 

[Ararana]

Makar is in a regular jersey.

Read my post again lol

 

[Raucherhusten]

Lost Namestnikov too now? Damn.

Kaut must be an emergency call up for him again.

Or he has been send down as a Vlad replacement and been brought up again as a Mac replacement. Everything is blurry right now when it comes to our lineup.

Somebody is playing that we aren’t expecting.

Let’s say right now that Burakovsky, Namestnikov, Mackinnon, Mikko, Burakovsky, Calvert and Kadri are all hurt. That leaves us with 10 forwards. 11 if Barbs plays on wing. One of those players listed above will almost certainly be ready.

I’m banking on it being one of Mackinnon/Namestnikov despite them not skating today. Bednar mentioned on his interview yesterday that players are banged up and they’re trying to limit their practices/pre game skates. I’d bet one of those two are just getting the morning off.

 

[BaconNater]

Why is everyone worried about coronavirus, i am worried about ColinWilsonvirus that gets everyone hurt

 

[Cousin Eddie]

Prayers that EJ is simply a placeholder because he’s right handed and the real guy will avoid a scare and play tonight!

 

[Bubba Thudd]

Was Namaste one of the guys eating Mexican food yesterday?

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Read my post again lol

Sorry. LOL.

 

[Ararana]

This might be the most exciting yet depressing tweet I've ever read

Sorry. LOL.

lol no worries!

 

[Cousin Eddie]

Yeah call me over optimistic but I think Nathan Mackinnon plays tonight. Makar appears back and ready to take his spot on the PP which makes sense, but why would you then remove Girard from that PP and add EJ? I feel like they’d put Makar in Mackinnon’s left point/circle and let Girard continue to okay where he has on the PP.

Stronggggg feeling that EJ is simply a placeholder for Nate on that PP for morning skate. Especially after Bednar said yesterday he’s trying to rest guys more.

they’re finally making adjustments on the pp. new strategy: destroy all the shin pads!

 

[Balthazar]

That's one shitty PP1!

 

[Balthazar]

Yeah call me over optimistic but I think Nathan Mackinnon plays tonight.

If he wasnt healthy enough to finish the last game and skate this morning he shouldnt play tonight. Too risky.
