Injury Report: 2021 Injury Thread - Part II

[tucker3434]

Girard got hurt? Great. Good to see Mack stand up for him. Even though that wasn’t even a particularly bad hit. Just unlucky. Need to see more of that. Just not from him.

 

[Postanin CB Ting]

So Byram and Macdonald expected back for playoffs?


What about Saad, Calvert and LOC?

Tonight might suck. Hope G is back. Do we start Gru and hope he steals 2 points or do we fear the hockey gods and go with Doobie? B2B after weeks off and prob face a lot of shots I dunno...

 

[Raucherhusten]

Playoffs are about 2-3 weeks away and with Girard/Graves possibly out (for now) we are back to NINE
corpses even without Covid. This is not going to end well if this trend continues. And because it's the
AVS we know it will. And that is just a damn shame.

 

[Avsavsavsavsavs]

At some point things need to change, this teams identity for the last 3 years has been "unable to stay healthy". Have to think Joe hopefully figures out a situation where the team isn't heavily reliant on repeat offenders like EJ and Calvert even if I love them, obviously the other injuries they are going through with Byram/LOC/Graves and now possibly Girard are just unfortunate hockey plays. I just hate the idea of looking back and thinking damn that was a great team if they could stay healthy for all these years.

 

[AllAboutAvs]

So 5 of our top 7 dmen on injuries.....just great.

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

At this point we might as well set this thread up as a live thread too.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

So Graves is then out D2D and Girard is dead?

 

[forsbergavs32]

Well if Graves is alright that’s at least good. As infuriating as he is, it’s better than having Middleton and Burroughs in the lineup

 

[Cousin Eddie]

If Girard is done we’re gonna count on Byram more than we thought we’d have to.

Hopefully Girard is fine and if he is I still kinda hope they give him a week or two to relax a little. He looks gassed. A break would do him well as long as the injury isn’t anything serious.

 

[tucker3434]

Let’s just bench the whole team and let the eagles play in their palace until the playoffs. Our matchups won’t change anyway.

How are we going to depend on a dead guy?

 

[Nihiliste]

If Sam is done, the season is basically over. If EJ/Byram/Mac were all healthy we could probably cover with depth, without the first two we can’t, and it doesn’t seem they’re expected back

Thanks. f***

 

[Hornstar]

How are we going to depend on a dead guy?

Easy.. just lay his dead corpse in front of the net and rotate him out every few shifts
Kinda similar to what we would do with EJ

 

[The Shermanator]

I will truly truly be devastated if Girard is out long term here. He's that important.

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

Good news on Graves. Glad it’s not serious.

Hopefully Sammy isn’t out too long. They really need Byram back if he’s out long term.

Why did Nate stop playing after the fight? Misconduct or injury?

 

[The Moops]

Why did Nate stop playing after the fight? Misconduct or injury?

Just not worth it with only 1:30 left in the game

 

[Avsboy]

Girard is the best puck rusher in the league

 

[Zynbanejad]

Just not worth it with only 1:30 left in the game

So he only played 15 mins?

 

[sethro109]

Why did Nate stop playing after the fight? Misconduct or injury?

Top line with soda went out right before he left the box. Then there was only 1:30 left in the game. So Bednar sent out lines 2 and 4 to finish the game.
