2024 2025 Injury Thread Hf’s Longest Thread Just Got Longer

Unless proven otherwise, I'm going to assume both Drouin and Necas won't be ready for the 1st round.

Way, way too often the Avs have allowed injured players to return to games only to see them miss several weeks to months with injury issues.

The Avs deserve zero benefit of doubt. Arguably the most incompetent organization in hockey when it comes to injuries during games.

We wait and see, but I have zero optimism until proven otherwise.

I hate this injures, but when you look around the league, we’re not the only team losing key players at the worst time. Oilers have McDavid and Draisaitl banged up. Jets lost Ehlers in their last game. Dallas haven’t had Heiskanen for a while now and might not have him in the 1st round etc etc etc. This is why whoever gets lucky and stays relatively healthy, that’s the team that goes all the way

Health sure plays a part of it. But if the league is deadset against you getting a cup, there's just nothing you can do. Hasek won a cups with the wrong f***ing team. He deserved it in Buffalo, but f*** Brett Hull and the NHL's ability to actually follow their own rules.

While other teams experience injuries as well, his point was that our medical staff is incompetent at accurately identifying and managing injuries during games.
 
Avs player: "Hey trainer, this doesn't feel or look right."

Avs trainer: "Ah, a lil' bit of magic spray and you'll be out next period."

Other teams do that too though. Oilers mismanaged Draisaitl yesterday. First of all I think he probably came back early from his initial injury, then in their game last night, Drai got hurt twice before he left and didn’t come back, so he was playing injured. I just think Avs get super unlucky with this injuries, but one thing Avs do is they make sure they don’t rush players back from injuries. Gotta give them that

What, you don't trust the medical staff that put Cogliano back out there with a broken neck?

Middleton just got hurt and left the game for the Wild. He’s a key d-man for the them. Again, we’re not the only team dealing with injuries, but still sucks

Protas now injured and gone to locker room for the Caps. They also don’t have Thompson. Like I said, many teams dealing with key injuries. Vegas seem to always get lucky and not have as many injuries in the playoffs. They might be the team that goes all the way again this year

You should update us on every injury across the NHL for the rest of the regular season.

If the Avs win in any fashion tomorrow, they can't drop from the 3rd in the Central.

Might as well rest players the last 4 games. Between tomorrow and the first possible playoff game (April 19), they'll have 2 week off. Hopefully Necas, Drouin, Girard, and Manson are all back by than, and not before in meaning less games.

Yes they can.
1 more win puts us at 100 points.
Blues are at 91 with 5 games left.

Magic number is still 3.

Edit: realized at Louis is tomorrow

too much rest isn't good

What I’m hearing is we might be rid of Kingslayer’s avatar tomorrow. Haven’t wanted to beat the Blues this badly since game 6
