PATTY EAVES PATTY EAVES PATTY EAVES PATTY EAVES!!!! What's going to be funny is when next season Eave's has a bad game and we get to bump all these threads following the "EAVES NEEDS TO GET THE HELL OUT OF DETROIT DAMNIT" I can already sense it!

[bdavis]

Good news! Hopefully his concussion symptoms have subsided too.

[wingfan1991]

Hopefully he gets back this year but I think reports say he's definitely done for year.

Good stuff!

Hopefully he gets back this year but I think reports say he's definitely done for year.

This season (i.e. the post) is off the table, out of the question.

Update on Patty

http://octopusthrowe...with-headaches/

My heart dropped when that puck hit him but I didn't expect it to be this long of a recovery.
I also really annoys me that when Crosby was out I had to hear/read about it every few days. It seemed like every time he saw a doctor we got a full report (no matter how minor the progress was) but there has been hardly any major articles about Eaves since the day the puck hit. Just kind of bums me out.

:{ BRING BACK THE SICK FLOW. I love me some Patty Eaves, and we certainly can use him as he is one of the best PK'ers and he's a right handed shot. Really depressing to see taking one for the team can take you out for so long.

This sucks. Was a horrible incident though and I guess taking a puck to the head is always going to take longer to recover from that a hit to the head. I think saving graces are that we're pretty flush on offense at the moment and a lockout could give him more time to recover but boy I want to see Eaves skating again soon.

saw this today....

Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press: Red Wings Patrick Eaves hasn’t played since suffering a concussion last November. His headaches are ‘fewer and further between’, but he still hasn’t been cleared by team doctors. Eaves said,

“that the bad part is behind me now. This is part of the progress, skating with other guys and trying to get used to that. The speed is, obviously, not what it is at training camp. I’m just happy to be out there with the guys.”

I'll be so stoked when this guy is back. I've always been a fan of helm and eaves. especially on the PK.
