Rice 42 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Wow. If it's something serious this will probably go down as one of the worst trades ever. Maybe not the worst, but the unluckiest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Opie 308 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Damn you OP, I had the perfect thread title: Down goes Hossa, down goes Hossa!!!! Seriously though, this could really suck for the penguins! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DatsyukRules 0 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 It was a knee on knee collision and he was hobbling off the ice pretty badly. No word yet on the severity of the injury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Opie 308 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Sore right knee mild mcl situation whatever that means Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DatsyukRules 0 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 grade 1 MCL sprain in the right knee is what i think they just said on TSN, "gone at least a week", but not too severe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rice 42 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Can they be sure it's a sprain without an MRI? God, that would just be horrible, horrible luck if it were a tear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Crymson Report post Posted February 29, 2008 This is unusual for Hossa. His playing style, like Nick's, is conducive to avoiding contact. Anyway, Havlat is also out.. AGAIN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duck Guy 86 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 wow that sucks. hopefully he is ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hardcoretom21 71 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 They can't be 100% SURE it's a first degree sprain without an MRI, but in Physical therapy there are knee ligament stress tests that we can do to test the laxity in the joint. We also test the "end-feel" to see whether the resistance felt is characteristic of a complete tear (called "empty end-feel, i.e. no resistance). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SweWings 45 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 I still have doubts about the Penguins but I hope he gets back soon. Can't say I want them to win, but I'd rather make fun of them for failing with a healthy, full squad than an injury-destroyed one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Wow. If it's something serious this will probably go down as one of the worst trades ever. Maybe not the worst, but the unluckiest. Especially if he doesn't re-sign, but I wonder if he'll be tempted to re-sign just becacuse he'll feel guilty. I don't know much about his character, but that would be the right thing to do consdiering what they gave up for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
