Injury Report: 2024-2025 Injury thread | HF’s Longest Thread Just Got Longer

[Sea Eagles]

Landy is just 32. Give him the off season. Let him come back during pre-season, and start the year when there's WAY less pressure (probably on the bottom 6 somewhere), and work his way from there.

Can we make a Landy injury thread so I don’t have to feel dread everytime this one jumps to the top? My heart can’t take it.

And the reason those people were against the trade was not because they didn't like Mitts it was because we were losing Byram in the trade.

It was both FTR. I had posts with the same opinion on Mitts before the trade and so did a few others.

Mackenzie Blackwood would like a word with you.

Umm. Necas + Drury + cap space for a money hungry Rants is working out great, too

Never let it be known that I say the dumbest things sometimes when trying to prove a point.

I did not mean to infer that CMac has never benefited the Avs with his moves. I actually feel like he hasn't really lost one until now.

What I'm alluding to is all the roster movement and shuffling of deck chairs for the lower lines. He brings in Parsnips to play 3C. Bednar used him as a second line winger and then just trashed him. Bednar brought in Drury, and again stated... I think he can give us the 3C the team needs. Bednar played him 4C for several games.

Y'all keep coming in here with tales that we've got a physical specimin... one who plays the body and will help when we get pinned. All I see is a guy who hasn't spoken with Jared Bednar yet.

CMac was kind of all over the place in his comments about Gabe. Sounding optimistic, then more pessimistic, then sounded like he believes in him.

I think focusing on that "you can see where this is going" comment would be a mistake.

I'm a bit more pessimistic than I was before hearing CMac talk, but also I don't think he'd be saying things are going good, that hopefully it keeps going well, that he believes if anyone can do it Gabe can, and that everyone is rooting for him, if he thought he was done. That would just be setting everyone up for disappointment. And CMac knows a lot more than us.

Here's more context for his comments on Gabe.

Landeskog Update

"Gabe continues to rehab. I think things are, you know he's doing good, he's grinding hard every single day, but I don't foresee him joining practice in the next day or two or week or two here. So I think you guys can figure out where this is kinda going, but hopefully it'll keep going well."

Asked if his comments are a sign he might not play this year.

"Yeah, there's a chance. I mean obviously I can't predict the future, but he continues to rehab. He's not practicing with the team yet. It's 2.5 years and you're not practicing with the team in early March. We're gonna continue to take it week by week here, but he is grinding, he's doing everything he can. It's just I didn't think June 26th, 2022, the injury would be three years. So there is no playbook here. We'll just continue to chip away at it, and he's doing everything he can. That I know. So we'll see where it goes."

Talked a bit about how difficult it must be on Gabe, then...

"For me I hope it's gonna happen for him, but obviously it's been a while. But if anybody can do it I think it's Gabriel Landeskog. I think not only me, Bedsy, our players, our organization, I think the hockey world wants to see it. You wanna see him get back out there and see how he can do. I think everybody's behind him."
