About OV being on gear? Is that really taboo? We used to guess about NFL players all the time.

Who was the LB for the Patriots who went from special teams to pro bowl late in his career?

When OV says “other stuff” regarding his diet and workout, I’m starting to think that other stuff isn’t exactly approved.

Go try to even INSINUATE it on the main boards. Let me know how long the post lasts.

Malkin tore his ACL and MCL in February 2011 and was doing on-ice workouts 2.5 months later. Karlsson also had a miraculous recovery timeline following his achilles tear. I think it's more or less an open secret in the league (and every major sport).

I’m pretty sure like 80% of the NFL is cycling on and off. Combat sports, 100% of elite fighters.

They're all on stuff that makes recovery faster, at a minimum. Some isn't all that illegal. But I'm sure boundaries are pushed.

Technically steroids are not illegal. Procuring them without a prescription is. It wouldn’t surprise me if they proscribed to athletes recovering from injury, or for other more dubious reasons.

Team doctors are very important

No no he just happened to decline significantly in the prime of his career right after the 2010 Olympics. That’s just how it goes.

Greatly enjoying the downfall of the Bruins tbh.

 

[Gurglesons]

Caps retooled exactly how the Pens should have. They are damn good this year.

Dubas going to run this franchise into the ground hard.

Lame, but the Pens have dealt with injuries to their stars for decades.

Just goes to show how much better the Pens stars (and the franchise) have been.

If Sid had Ovechkin's run of durability, he's probably sitting at like 1800pts.

If Sid or Geno were announced as week-to-week, they'd be gone for half the season. Ovechkin probably misses 5 games. Same thing happened with McDavid. Dude missed like half a dozen games after an injury that would have sidelined Sid/Geno for 30+ games.

Our stars' injury luck versus other stars in the league was truly brutal.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

And yes, I'm aware that HFCaps reads this thread.
