Devastating news for both Pelts and Snowy

 

[Lunatik]

I'm guessing we don't see Pelts before Christmas. Really shitty news for him.

I'm assuming it'll be basically a repeat of Bennett. So I bracing or after TDL, if even.

Very possible. It sucks.

I think we will definitely claim someone off waivers, or sign a guy on a PTO with another club now.

As a silver lining, I hope we find a more effective way of having the extra player Pelts in the press box for his learning and development.

IIRC we did this with Bennett, but only for his personal benefit. We also didnt' have an AC that did this relatively regularly (new since last year ish?). I wonder if asking Pelts to regularly be part of the eye in the sky with the AC that is responsible for this would not only help Pelts, but allow for two sets of eyes to offer more info for video review for the players after the games.

In the post game interviews Dube roasted Coranato's eyebrows

My eyebrows are thin as hell since I hit 36 onward. I'd kill for those brows. XD

Haha, as long as mine remain brows instead of brow, I'm good

Not our favorite guy, but I think he's reliable on this subject.

Not sure where to post this. But did anyone else go to the Bonfire event? Next year I will not be driving there lol. Free beer and food is always nice.

Conroy was way too loose with the barn burner podcast yesterday.

Pelt is not in Bennett class

He has a lot to prove. This is a huge set back.

I was talking solely duration of recovery. I wouldn't expect Pelts back until game 65-70 at the earliest from surgery, recovery and then getting up to NHL speed.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Be surprised if Pelt was in the NHL this season. He will almost assuredly go down to the AHL after hes healthy to get back into game shape. Not a lot of point to bring him back up for a handful of games at that point.

Obviously I am not a doctor and am not privy to medical records, but Bennett lied about his injury for a long time before having surgery, so there is a chance he did extra damage as a result and only admitted he had the injury when it got worse.

Yes, but Bennett's was also an incremental damage as time went on. He was playing OK during preseason before going for surgery. It wasn't working good, but it wasn't seemingly brutally bad either. Pelt's was due to sudden injury. It's possible the damage level was comparable.

Bennett was also slowed in his recovery before getting into NHL games due to his play style. IMO, Pelts isn't as physical, but will also likely be slowed in his recovery before getting into the NHL due risk of reinjury to his size.

Based on this, that's how I made my guess that Pelts and Bennett likely will require approximately the same period of time to get onto the roster (within 5-10 NHL games). I could be wrong for sure. I'm just saying that's how I came to my guess.

We need to figure out how to spell Scorenato

I have seen all of... Scorenato, Scoreonato, Scoronato, Scoranato... and maybe more

I don't think it matters. We can't even get Monahan and Hanifin correct.
