kipwinger 8,440 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 Nevermind, I just watched it again. His nose is fine, his stupid mustache just made it look like he was bleeding lol. Can Movember be over already? 1 trule23 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt198913 932 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 Hopefully Smith is okay. If he broke his hand up 4-0 that might be it for him. Second in points and plus minus on the d right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Richdg 267 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 Smith hurt his hand in a fight. Had to leave the penalty box early to go to the locker room. Not sure if he broke something or just cut it badly. His first punch was to the visor and then he switched hands after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,440 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 Take a bath Nick Foligno...geesh! Seriously though, tough break. Smith's been looking real good the last five or six games. Hope it's just a minor setback. Holland has sissified the poor kid. Smith used to fight more frequently in his younger days. Now he's having problems due to this lame fight?

I've heard that having a dense crop of pubes can fight off Ebola too. 1 FireCaptain reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jesusberg 1,256 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 I'm no expert, but didn't Smith leave the box right away to get it cleaned up? How did an infection get a chance to set in? Is Foligno diseased?Also, if E is out, they basically have to call up Ouellet. We'd be down to 5 D.The good/cool news is that Mrazek gets to start in Winnipeg, though I find it a little odd to sit a goaltender after a shutout... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely hurts the team at this point in time. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely hurts the team at this point in time. As long as he's scoring I can overlook the turnovers and occasional blown coverage. That's what he was drafted to do. But if he's doing the latter and none of the former, I lose my patience pretty quickly with Riley's brother. Sucks that he's out though, he's been earning his keep lately. 1 Wheelchairsuperhero reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,788 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 His brother Rory is a legend in lacrosse fighting, so Smith needs to work with him a little. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 According to mlive, Ericcson missed practice due to a maintenance day, so I expect he will be in the lineup tomorrow. Smith is on short term IR, so he's out at least for the next seven days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
