No....from what I read he suffered a severe sprain. A surgery would fix a tear, but there is nothing you can do to a sprain as far as I know. What he needs to do is to rest. Most likely he came back to quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I mean they absolutely knew the day he would become injured and didn't pull the trigger. Someone should fire our team psychic, he's just not getting the job done. 9 krsmith17, derblaueClaus, kickazz and 6 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SwedeLundin77 460 Report post Posted February 9, 2017 From what I've read on mlive, they're going to bring him back to Detroit to see the team doctors. The Griffins doc, after checking his knee out, said it appeared sound. They're classifying it as a "little tweak." It also said that him coming out of the game was more precautionary than necessary. Sounds like they think, if he had to, he could have played through it. In either case, it's unfortunate with the deadline coming up. I don't think they'd be able to trade him anyway, but still. 2 krsmith17 and amato reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeftWinger 4,953 Report post Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) There goes any value he had or will have...Vegas will not select him, nobody will trade for him. Best thing to do is buy him out and wash your hands to it. He may heal by next season, but NO WAY should they risk dumping or not protecting Mrazek and keep Jimmy. If Jimmy goes down next season, which we know he will, your tandem will be Coreau and Paterson... A buyout would be 4 years the 1st year $1.8M then $2.5M, $1.5M, $1.5M. This is the only scenario that makes sense now... Jimmy Howard Jimmy Howard is 33 years old at the date of the buyout Salary remaining: $9,250,000 The buyout ratio is 2/3, which results in a total buyout cost of $6,166,667 There are 2 years remaining on this contract The buyout will be spread out over 4 years The annual buyout cost is $1,541,667 The buyout cap hit is displayed in the far right column Buyout Details SEASON SALARY INITIAL CAP HIT ACTUAL COST SAVINGS BUYOUT CAP HIT 2017-18 $5,000,000 $5,291,667 $1,541,667 $3,458,333 $1,833,334 2018-19 $4,250,000 $5,291,667 $1,541,667 $2,708,333 $2,583,334 2019-20 $0 $0 $1,541,667 -$1,541,667 $1,541,667 2020-21 $0 $0 $1,541,667 -$1,541,667 $1,541,667 Edited February 9, 2017 by LeftWinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChristopherReevesLegs 7,022 Report post Posted February 9, 2017 *Howard tweeks knee* LGW: "HE'S LOST ALL VALUE! BUY HIM OUT!" Settle down people, so far it's just being called a tweek. Let's see what the Detroit doctors say. If Dallas scores Fleury, and Calgary scores Bishop, Vegas and a few other teams will still need starting goalies. Vegas also has to hit the cap floor too remember. Price tags should be a very non-issue for them. 4 derblaueClaus, amato, krsmith17 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
