Injury Report: 2023-24 Injury thread (McGinn out 4 months after back surgery)

[Ducks DVM]

We can still send Tristan back before his 9 games are up. LaCombe can play RD and Vaaks slots as LD with Gudas.

Fowler-LaCombe
Minchy-Gumby
Vaaks-Gudas
Hinds

Hinds can play LD or RD and is waiver exempt, but we can also bring up either White or Hagg. I think they're waiver exempt for a certain time period.

30 calendar days or 10 games on the NHL roster.

Yeah i was being a little tongue in cheek sarcastic there given drysdale’s difficulty staying healthy.

Unlike lacombe and minty i think luneau benefits by going down. I wish i knew what vaaks potential is but i guess with hagg/white you probably just call one of them up when needed rather than change rookie development plans

So if Leo is hurt as well as JD and others. Is the Ducks medical staff venturing into the ineptitude the Angels staff enjoys?

No

 

[AngelDuck]

The Angels have made the playoffs 1 time in the last 14 seasons.

Ducks have made the playoffs 7 times in that timeframe

Some perspective

 

[KelVarnsen]

Sorry I wasn’t clear…… I’m only talking about medical staff. The Angels medical staff is terrible and they always have injuries. I’m asking if the Ducks medical staff is that inept based on the amount of injuries the Ducks seem to have (assuming Leo is dealing with another minor injury).

Considering it was a finger injury I'm surprised he hasn't been skating for a while now.

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

Soo wtf is going on with drysdale.. is he even skating? This is bs.

 

[GreatBear]

The Ducks continue to provide minimal information regarding injuries. He could either be back soon or be near deathbb

I mean I get it. They have no obligation.. but it's worrysome.

Has anyone seen or heard anything from the Ducks on Drysdale? It drives me nuts that our “reporters” haven’t even been asking.

How do you know they haven’t been?

I'm pretty sure they inquire, but that doesn't mean the org has to respond. The org has always been tight-lipped about any delicate news and it's being carried similarly under Verbeek. When the org wants us to know is when reporters and writers will let us know. Which does suck for us fans

Remember when we all thought Carlsson was just going to sit out the second of b2b games only to discover on game day that load mgmt is longer than one missed game? Welp, the org knew what they wanted to do all along, but didn't feed us info until the last minute.

I have not seen anything like "No update on Drysdale" or similar type statements. This is why I asked on this forum because many of you guys see or find information that I miss.

 

[Reveille1984]

I'm hoping it's just a "keep him home for the road trip" sort of deal and he'll come off the IR once we're back in Anaheim. Barring that it would be odd to say day-to-day and then have him miss multiple weeks, but stranger things have happened.

 

[Mr Rogers]

Hoping to hear more on Killorn and Drysdale this week, seems like injury updates usually come when the team is at home.

 

[Hockey Duckie]

I wonder how long will we find out how injured Gibby is.

I bet Day to day.............

 

[Leonardo87]

I bet Day to day.............

Oh boy lol

 

[GreatBear]

Day to day means, maybe he is breathing.

 

[KelVarnsen]

Day to day means, maybe he is breathing.

I'm telling you guys for the Ducks, day to day means anything from medical retirement to back tomorrow and everything in between.

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

They should just change day to day to day to year lmao

 

[GermanRocket7]

Well, they never specified if it were Earth days or UTC times. So, technically, they would still be correct up until a few years, as a day on Venus lasts 243 Earth days.

 

[KelVarnsen]

No word on Gibby?

Ducks are still radio silent on JD?

Does anyone know if Gibby and JD are actually still alive?
