Prospect Info: [2024 - 21st] Michael Hage, Chicago Steel (USHL), Committed to U of Michigan

[Habs4Life]

Phil Kessel rare missed a game.

Martin Brodeur didn't start to miss games until he got older and figured he needed to workout in order to keep out.

Sometimes working out hard isn't always the best thing.

Sergei Zubov smoked like a chimney, could play 30 minutes a night.

Dustin Byfuglien made no sense how a man that size could skate so well and fast and seemingly never break a sweat.

I swear this new age working out for the players is doing damage to a lot of them. It's obviously still better than smoking and destroying pizzas, but it's probably why there seems to be so many more injuries now than 25ish years ago and maybe more.

100% agreed!

What cause most injuries is repetitions. But not just workout repetitions. Daily activities can also be very repetitive (keyboard typing, gaming, etc) and lead to injuries over time like tendinities, back/shoulder issues or carpal tunnels.

Injuries that used to happen to secretaries after 20-25 years working, are now showing up among 20-30 years old.

WTF is Team Canada thinking????


It's even worst then that:

Rooting 'against' Team Canada these last few years has been very weird but also very fun honestly lol

It's insane how bad the mabagement has been and IS

Hope they CRATER this year

 

[1909]

That Team Canada management group is clueless.

It's really confusing to be honest, I don't know how they left off so many top players.

It sucks for Hage for sure, would have been cool but I knew he was a long shot.

I was looking forward to watching Misa and he was left off as well

And lesser players like Cataford and Gauthier are invited. Have to invite some players from the QMJHL???

‘’Role’’ type players

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

‘’Role’’ type players

And yet when they lose it's because they don't have enough scorers.

 

[HuGort]

Hage not invited to Team Canada's training camp.

Only one player from the NCAA invited: Matthew Wood. Every other invite is from the CHL except for Brad Nadeau, who is in the AHL and will be loaned for the WJC.

Hockey Canada generally favors junior players

Yeah, I’m not really fan of how they put their teams together every year but oh well, we’ll see next year for Hage.

Gophers are kicking their asses. Makes me wonder if it's something more than an "injury" and if the team is rattled.

It's 6-0 in the second and the coach doesn't even care to pull the goalie...

 

[montreal]

i went through the end of the vid, I don't see anything that stands out for an injury and it wasn't like last time when he took several hits.

[Skip Bayless]

Oh ffs

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Cursed... This team is cursed.

 

[Heffyhoof]

Cursed... This team is cursed.

Should Montreal just admit defeat and refurbish the Forum at this point?

 

[HuGort]

As they say, It's mainly a 19 year old's tournament. At forward, only 3 '06 birth year/draft year invited: Catton, Beaudoin, and Luchanko.

Tij Iginla, Beckett Senecke, Zane Parekh, Yakemchuk, and many other '06 birth year draft not invited.

Isn't Ignila injured?

 

[26Mats]

Isn't Ignila injured?

Yes, that news came out after I wrote this post.

Many also saying in the media that NCAA players are at a disadvantage to CHL players. Not sure of the dynamics behind that, political or other.

 

[skidcells]

So any updates on what the injury is/how long he’ll be out for?

 

[WeThreeKings]

Yes, I posted it on this very page.

It's an ankle injury he suffered in practice, he traveled with the team and they are monitoring it from a day to day perspective.

Nothing too serious , thank god

 

[MTL Dirty Birdy]

Hagens/Misa and Mrtka could solve that as soon as this year.

Even when Dach finds his form later in this season, Hage as the only viable top 6C prospect is not

Is Demidov getting some time at C? I think he was in the MHL

 

[WeThreeKings]

No he dominated on wing and his coach will barely use him.
