Injury Report: 2021 Injury Thread - Part II

[Balthazar]

That was a tweet from last Saturday:

Strange coincidence that he called it 2 days ago.

Also means that he was right about the goalie movement...Dubnyk must have tested positive days ago.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

At least most (maybe all?) the team has been vaccinated already. Should help slow the spread

Hopefully, it's just another "close contact with someone outside the organization" thing like with Mikko, and he doesn't have it. Although, Mikko missed basically a week while meeting NHL protocols, even though he didn't have COVID. We still don't know which version of the vaccine those who chose to get it, got. If it was a 2-dose version, then they still have to have their 2nd dose here soon and they aren't "fully protected" yet (still 80% - 85% after first dose). If it was the 1-dose version, then they are probably OK by now.

Duuuuu came over after they'd already gotten their vaccines, right? So we don't know if he's been vaccinated yet (if he has it, then probably not).

 

[Mighty Makar]

They should get their 2nd dose right after a game ‘cause they will most likely feel like shit the next day. Or hopefully there is a 2-3 day break before the playoffs. They have to wait 28 days (after 1st dose) to get the 2nd dose, I believe.

Great so he has been around the team for two days now.

If that's the case then the team needs to enforce more severe rules. It's not normal that it happened 3 times to the Avs and either 1 or 0 time to the other teams.

Avs can't afford to have another bunch of people getting it and getting another week off.

Also we have a TON of injured players FFS...can't they f***ing be more careful with covid? (Yes, I'm mad).

Lets not gloss over the posters calling him a hack for baseless speculation.

I’m f***en choked, man. This is ridiculous.

Sometimes it's worth tagging them and this is one of those times.

Hi @RockLobster

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

Well... they have the first shot, so hopefully that helps stop potential spread.

Hi @RockLobster

I was too lazy to go back and look who it was lol

 

[Mighty Makar]

I thought the vaccine is supposed to make you not as sick if you get Covid? You can still transfer it to people if you have it?

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Hi @RockLobster

So it's ok for you to baseless speculate all day long(Just like you're doing here right now) but gotta make sure to call someone else out when they do it?

Cool. Sounds like you.

 

[tucker3434]

Dubnyk played later that day, so what's the theory on that? It would seem mighty weird to risk it for freaking Dubnyk.

 

[RockLobster]

I gave him shit for baselessly speculating because that's exactly what he was doing. And Dubnyk played that night. I'd do it again, and I would do it to anyone else that did shit like that.

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

There’s no way Dubnyk would have been allowed to play that night if he tested positive.

Yes.

Dude was right. Regardless of what you think of him he gets a little credit here. I’m not personally a fan of him and had to unfollow him but it is what it is.

 

[Muffin]

Hoping it's just a close contact. I'm guessing he's still staying in a hotel in Denver, maybe someone in the hotel tested positive?

In what way was he right?

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

The Avs only have Grubauer, Dubnyk, and JoJo on the trip, and called up the other two on Saturday to give JoJo the crease that night in the AHL. Considering Dubnyk played the night of his speculation, seems like he might have gotten a little lucky.

Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more, say no more.

 

[RockLobster]

FTR, I don't mind being called out on something I did.

I don't think MacDonald was right here though. He literally called what he did 100% speculation, which was "COVID list won't be out until 3pm MST, but is it possible Dubnyk is on it?" Well the answer to that was "No", based on him not being on the list and him playing that day.

 

[Mighty Makar]

I might have to hit up the liquor store.

 

[Goulet17]

It seems like the Avs are having more difficulty managing this whole Covid thing than other teams.

 

[MildAvaholic]

For Covid? Do they have a good sale going on?
