I´m still amazed that Kronwall has hardly been injured this season

Hurraaay, lebda playing center and meech.... :P

Laugh now, but if Richards challenges the Wings to a speed skating competition you'll be glad we can ice a fourth line of:

Meech-Draper-Lebda

Ain't no one going to out skate that line. Outscore? Oh yeah, but skate? Never.

:ph34r:

Glass half full! ;) That is a fast line though.

By that logic Hossa and Zetterberg should retire also.

Hossa isnt that injury prone, and Z will play more than 75 games this season, but, Homer's injuries seem as though they are building on themselves.

Lilja not close

Defenseman Andreas Lilja, out since Feb. 28 with a concussion, continues to experience headaches.

"We're waiting for him to come in two to three days in a row and tell us he's symptom-free," Holland said. "Then, we'll get him on the (exercise) bike and ramp it up each day. If all goes well, he's at least a couple of weeks away."

Center Valtteri Filppula (back) is expected back for Friday's game at Atlanta and right wing Tomas Holmstrom (knee) also is close to returning.

So there aren't any treatments for the headaches from concussions? Bad scientists!

The headaches are symptoms. It's like if you take pain relievers for a broken foot, but keep skating- You'll feel better, but you'll make the foot worse. We don't want Lilja out jarring his brain if it's injured. There's more to life than hockey (at least in his life- he does have a family) and we don't want to ruin his career by rushing him back and causing his injury to get worse.

Who would have thought we'd be missing Lilja so much? If you asked me before the season started I probably could have cared less if he was even in the lineup at all. He's really had a good year, here's hoping to a full recovery.

Neuroscience is far less advanced than many other areas - not because they haven't tried just as hard, but because the brain and neurosystem are so complex. Let's fact it, a stomach, kidney etc is much easier to figure out.

Case in point, Liam Neeson's wife died from a minor spill on a bunny slope = doctors and scientists have no remedy for these things.... :(
