On the upside, he's been playing pretty damn well in general let alone for someone who's been bothered by a lingering groin injury. Perhaps he'll come back even stronger. We definitely need him to be ready in a few months, so I guess whatever it takes. If Howard can't get it together, it may not be pretty over the next couple months, but I have no doubt we'll win enough games to stay in the playoff race and that's all that matters to me.

who will be injured next in what game and what body part?

I call Darren Helm on Monday against the Avs with a broken arm

I call Paul Boyer with a festering wound caused by a splinter from carrying all the hockey sticks.

How about TMc instead of JMac? Joey was just okay when he filled in some. How about seeing what Tommy boy does in an NHL game?

And by the way, psychologically, I can't take all these injuries anymore. I'm going into hibernation for the sake of my mental health. Somebody please wake me when it's March.


P.S. Anybody wonder if Malts is kicking himself for retiring? He probably would have been called up (not that I would have wanted the call ups taken away from Tatar and Mursak).

didn't they demote him from the AHL to the ECHL because of his poor play in the AHL?

I really doubt they would trust him to start a NHL game

I wouldn't mind Larsson getting a shot at back up if Osgood is gone a while,but because of his SEL contract he can't until next year I think

Draper had groin surgery at the beginning of the season and was out for how long? Assuming this is not an over assumption, that wouldn't be good for the Oz, he was starting to look okay in net. With Ozzy on the edge, Stu for 6-8, and now Filppula out until at least next week, why are our boys dropping like flies? Who angered the hockey gods?

I always thought they prolonged his injury for cap reasons.

Well why not? Anything else?

Babcock. Broken stare.

Babcock. Broken stare.

Here I was going to say Babcock out 2 weeks with upper body injury: bed head.

Poor Ozzy, I also had "groin surgery" once and it hurt like hell. At least it's 3 inches bigger now, hang in there! It's totally worth it!

Osgood is getting a reduction, though. And afterwards, he'll have to wear two leg pads like everyone else does, instead of just one like he does now.

If that's the case then poor Giguere. He must be overcompensating for something.

Is that why your name is Puffy?

[VM1138]

Well, if Ozzie is out for a while, Howard is picking a good time to start playing like his old self.

To get a true understanding of why my name is Puffy we would have to go all the way back to time of Moses. The year was ???? BC and Moses hired me to build him a time machine. His dream was to visit Mount Sinai in the year 1900 and warn people about all the troubles we were about to face.

Unfortunately I was high at the time and I sent him to 2020 by accident. When he realized that Mount Sinai was now called "Brokeback Mount Sinai" he decided to investigate. He died of cardiac arrest shortly after.

Whoops.

The lack of enforcer on the roster is what did it.

[titanium2]

If he does have surgery he'll be out 6 weeks. Yikes. If so, hope they can find a way to win and not overwork Jimmy.

[Nev]

Whilst there's never a good time to have an injury crisis, at least there'll all happening around a light January schedule and the All-star break.

Sucks for Ozzie though, just as he was playing himself into form and challenging Jimmeh.
