I bet Felbs has a good game, he's riding as high as ever right about now

I'm pretty sure we bought him on the dark web.
It was really pathetic that he was literally the only guy on the team at the time who knew how to score in the slot area. Other than that his time in Colorado was pretty unmemorable.
He was a pro AHL player for the Eagles. Bednar and co must have seen something they like in him, because they gave him a 2-year contract the other day.

Love Bedsy as a coach, but he can't be trusted at all with his injury timelines, in any direction.

I'm telling you it's gotta be some sort of core muscle injury.
It's not a concussion, he wouldn't be skating so much with a concussion. Something being broken would have a definite timeline for return the way Colton's broken foot had.
I'm thinking Drouin is going to be hurt the entire season and it likely costs him a fair bit of money next offseason. There's no way he gets healthy after having a mysterious injury since game 1 that nobody even knows about other than the Avs.

The Miles Wood contract is already aging like milk.

He’s moving better than 75% of the guys we are dressing every game.
Get him in the f***ing lineup.

Good Lord, I can't imagine doing those kind of drills anymore. A call to 911 would be inevitable.
All said, he looks damn ready to me!
Didn't Bednar just confirm that he's been skating away from the eyes of the Media? And that he's been doing "great"?
That's just company policy at Ball Arena. Any hope for transparency left with Roy. Sakic might be even more about Omerta than Pierre Lacroix.

It's a UBI, and we have no idea what it is. It could be a dozen different things. The fact that he took that big shot, on his shoulder in game 1 tells me it's something up around that area that just is taking forever to heal.
I mean, for instance, I strained peck and neck muscles in mid-August, and it's still bothering me 4 months later. Now, I'm 50, and not a professional athlete in the best condition of my life, but I've been doing PT weekly, and it doesn't take much to set it off again. One wrong twist, one lift the wrong way, etc. and it starts hurting again. The only thing that helps is doing absolutely nothing, which isn't plausible. I'm not saying this is what's happening with JD, but it would make sense that whatever it is, is a nagging thing that just won't go away in a timely manner.

I'm trying to remember IR, LTIR and cap accrual rules but am just drawing a blank today. We are using LTIR provided by Landy and Poolman. But we have injured guys that aren't on LTIR. Would holding Drouin and/or Manson out a bit longer result in more cap to play with at the deadline?

Can you really trust Bednar? He never talks to the trainers

No. No cap is accrued by IR or LTIR. IR is for number of players on active roster. LTIR allows you to overspend but you need to shed cap if the players comes back before the playoffs.
