FireCaptain 563 Report post Posted November 9, 2015 I cannot seem to find anything about Howard's condition after the knee to the head other than HSJ's and Khan's tweets. Both report that he was ok and wanted to come back in. https://twitter.com/HeleneStJames/status/663495451665170432 https://twitter.com/AnsarKhanMLive/status/663491695741427712 Seems like just got knocked a little loopy, but is that the real story?

rick zombo 3,739 Report post Posted November 9, 2015 Seems like an issue with his contact lens more than concussion protocol stuff. Which is good news. http://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/nhl/red-wings/2015/11/08/wings-fall-stars-lose-howard-injury/75426308/ Jimmy Howard started in net but left with 12:51 remaining in the game when he was kneed in the head by Dallas forward Jason Spezza on a drive to the crease and replaced by Petr Mrazek. Coach Jeff Blashill said after the game Howard was fine and dealt with a contact lens issue more than anything. "He wanted to come back (into the game) but it had been too long (out of the game)," Blashill said. 1 FireCaptain reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richdg 267 Report post Posted November 9, 2015 Good to hear. Smart move by Blashill-a former goalie. Muscles cool off and Jimmy did have a major groin injury last year. G was not the reason we lost yesterday. 4 puckloo39, TheXym, FireCaptain and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
