Injury Report: 2024-25 Injuries Thread: Brayden Point

[JoVel]

Who is this question directed to? Lol

Fair question but I wouldn't put career in quotations for Cernak.

While it's likely that he was concussed, it could be a strained neck or back, no way to know for sure.

 

[These Are The Days]

Don't hurry him. McDonagh can play with Moser and Hedman with Raddysh. Lily and Perbix can keep being a thing in the meantime.

We can do this for a few weeks and be fine

Great news the Cernek injury wasn’t as bad as first expected

 

[RDTBay4]

Any word yet on Point?

 

[StammerHammer]

What a surprise, the Lightning not forthcoming with information regarding a player's injury.

It's insane that a day and a half later not a word has been released.

Or has it, and some of us just missed it?

My assumption is out at least tonight and Thursday, reassess after. Unless it's more serious than that.

 

[RDTBay4]

Looks like Point is going to be out.

The average person has a better chance of knowing the internal conversations of Putin's government than the actual injury to Lightning players. They are beyond tight-lipped. Point could be dead or he could have the shits or anything inbetween.

 

[Soul Assumption]

it's just the groin not the knee or ankle. so i don't think it's really serious? probably a minor sprain. maybe he'll miss like a week

The issue is how long will it take him to get up to top end speed. Let's be honest, Point is only a top tier NHLer because of his speed; if he isn't close to 100% speed, he's just ok. We need him to be fully healthy.
