Injury Report: Auston Matthews: Hand injury (no details forthcoming)

[Zur En Arrh]

Which Lemieux are you talking about.?

you mad bro?

no one has said that ever.

He's a great player, with the best wrist shot in the game, when his wrist is OK.

But savage isn't apropos.


This is closer to savage.

SAVAGE! Fred SAVAGE!! Cope!!!

Auston sure played pretty well tonight… for a guy with a wonky hand.

Him and Mitch are gonna go Medieval in the playoffs.

Here's what I'm thinking. Players don't talk about injuries, main reason is they don't want opponents to know which parts of their bodies to target. Matthews talked about his injury the other say which made me think WTF but now I get it - he's fine now.

Take what this team has been, add ROR, McCabe, Schenn, Lafferty and Acciari and team is much better. Now change Matthews playing at 75% to Matthews playing at 98% and what we have is a team that assuming Sammy keeps up the good work doesn't need to fear anyone, not ever the record setting Bruins.

I can't wait!

Has there been any update about Matthews’ wrist ?

His shot wasn’t the same this year and into the playoffs.

Is it wise to sign him to term if he’s a shooter without a shot.

I guess we can officially downplay the HFidiots who were saying he's having girlfriend issues etc etc.

Maybe he is and that’s why his hand is sore

Anyone know if he’s a surgical candidate again ?

I remember him wincing and shaking his wrist in the Florida series.
