I remain incredibly perplexed as to why anyone cares if it's a concussion or not.

Because those injuries can degrade player performance over time, sometimes quite seriously. It's not like a broken leg where you're almost the exact player you were before when you return.

This is a big night for me. Having been born with the athleticism of a cheesewheel, I never got to chase the big rounds numbers I dreamed of. This is a big round number.

Despite the fact that I may seem angry a lot of the time or complain about this place (or the team), this community means an awful lot to me. Hell, I wish there were an HF for the other sports I follow. I talk about the Yankees more here than anywhere else.

It's hard to believe this is my 10th different Rangers season since joining. I was a plucky kid when I signed up and now I'm a grown ass man with a job and bills. I've grown up here in a way.

More importantly I've made friends for life. And I mean"real life" friends, and I hate that ****ing term because it's 2019. I've been to an HF wedding, I've been to games with multiple posters, draft events, I've had posters visit me when they're in New York which is crazy, and there's people in my life I talk to every day all because of this dump.

It's a wonderful thing to have a place where you feel important, respected, and listened to, even if people don't always like what you have to say. I thank everyone for that, even if we haven't always gotten along.

Here's the bad news: come 2028 you gonna be hearing a 200k speech because I'm not going anywhere. And I hope most of you aren't either.

Now I really wanna ****ing win this game so let's go!

I just continue to half-expect an Avery situation where somehow Zuccarello ends up returning to the Rangers at half salary.

Probably wouldn't happen for another season at least, though. Too early for Minnesota to give up and too early in the process for NYR to trade for a veteran.

I mean the belligerence and indignation that the organization might not be completely forthcoming with injury info

Without thinking for half a second that it's not always about you

And certainly without remembering teams lie about injuries in every single series in the playoffs every year. It's just weird.

Machine...not sure how the hell you have had time over the past 10 years to compose 100k worth of messages which is an average of 10k per year(yup that's me...math major), but you somehow have been able to pull it off so god bless ya!...lol

That's quite the feat and kudos once again and tho we don't communique very often for whatever the reason, I do know you are a big part of this board...cheers!!

Not sure of the timeline here, but its possible they originally thought it was just a neck injury and announced it wasn't a concussion. Then later he developed symptoms of the concussion. So now we are in this weird conspiracy theory territory.

Yeah that could be it. I'm honestly not sure how much "neck injuries can mimic symptoms of a concussion!" is some BS thing that sports doctors made up to cover their asses and how much of it's true but maybe it's a combination of all of that and Zibanejad not being sure what exactly it is at this point (feels like a neck injury at first, then he has some stuff that feels like PCS but maybe it's still a neck issue? etc etc)
 
I gotta feeling there will be a video tribute to Zucc.

And I have an equally good feeling that after watching it, I'm going to feel as if someone peeled an onion in my house....lol

I’m glad you’re here and I’m glad you’ve stuck around and I’m glad you hear you plan on sticking around for a lot longer. This place would be much less insightful (and entertaining) without you :cheers:

ah, oh comeòn we are playing against the Wilds - they seems out of it already concering playoffs. :)
It should be an easy Rangers win, haha! :DD
 
The Wild are a joke of a franchise.

Like...COME ON. You have Kaapo Kahkonen on your roster. Start him tonight so we can get some good Kaapo Kakko/Kaapo Kahkonen action.

I guess we gotta score a bunch early to get Stalock pulled...
