esteef 2,679 Report post Posted October 9, 2009 (edited) http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/20...zen_questi.html "Johan Franzen did not skate due to an unspecified lower-body injury sustained in Thursday's game. Coach Mike Babcock wouldn't reveal the injury, saying Franzen was sent for tests and is questionable for Saturday's game against Washington." “Franzen got bumped last night so we sent him over to get checked out,'' Babcock said. "He wasn’t feeling as good this morning. We’ll see if he’s OK or not.’’ "Defenseman Jonathan Ericsson practiced and is fine after taking a shot off the side of his left knee midway through the third period Thursday" Edited October 9, 2009 by esteef Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest gofish Report post Posted October 9, 2009 For 6'3 Franzen sure isn't very tough. I never agreed with giving him a 10 year extension. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

#96 16 Report post Posted October 9, 2009 Franzen is fine, he will play Thursday. Detroit likes to stir s*** up and make it sound like someone is hurt so the other team makes a line change and changes their s*** up. Then when Franzen pops up they are like.. WTF? NOOOOOO. *Babcock: hehe. owned.* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gizmo 21 Report post Posted October 9, 2009 Didn't Franzen block a shot with the side of his ankle during the 2nd last night, and got up rather slowly afterwards??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wombat 26 Report post Posted October 9, 2009 I guess according to people in this thread, guys over 6 foot aren't allowed to get injured regardless of the severity (which we don't know yet). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cjm502 165 Report post Posted October 9, 2009 Sounds like the Groin Fairy strikes again. If it was the groin he would not be questionable for tomorrows game. If you have a sore groin your sitting out for more than 1 day, which he still may do anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drake_Marcus 890 Report post Posted October 9, 2009 Ericsson's tough as nails. This is the second night so far he's blocked a shot and been injured enough not to play the rest of the game then is ready to play the next games. Gotta love this kid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gotta love this kid If he was so tough as you say, he would have never left the game. Just saying! Hopefully Franzen is fine. I mean, I'd hate to see Helm replace him on the top line if he were out for any lenght of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
