Bruins injury thread III

[Blowfish]

I'm only worried about Bergeron. The d continues to drive the offence. The bruins have some very good assets that can help teams looking for back end help.

 

[Bruinaura]

I watched the replay of the hit on Bergeron again. Kind of looks to me like Faksa pushed on Bergeron's skate which threw him off balance right before Faksa hit him into the boards. I don't think Bergeron would have gotten as angry as he did if he thought it was "just a hockey hit" or accidental.



Hope there is relatively good news today. I will take good news on anybody. The Bruins are overdue.

We should probably just close this and make a "Healthy Thread". It's just easier.

 

[JCRO]

I can't remember a stretch of injuries THIS bad..

I feel bad for laughing at this.

That was definitely intentional to trip/knock him down and drive him into the boards--obviously the injury was not but that is a potential outcome of his actions. Bergy remembers and since no more Dallas games this year, we will not see him throw down on Faksa until they meet next year. One of the most surprising moments I remember from him was throwing down against a Habs in the playoffs after being cross checked into the boards and he got a clean takedown with a left jab to the Habs face.

I would be surprised if Sherman was next up. More likely Goulubef.

Golobeuf is hurt I think, per Diver a couple of days ago:



Hoping that at least Miller is ready to go, fingers crossed for Mac or UV.

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

None of our dmen are safe, Lauzon needs 24/7 security and food testers.

Didn't we say this last year too?

Good news on Miller. Assuming McAvoy and Vaak must be close

Was it this?

 

[BMC]

I'm very happy with the news about McAvoy, I was beginning to fear he might be out even longer.

 

[Bruinaura]

"No update" on Bergeron.... is that good... bad.... terrible....

Kind of odd to fly McAvoy and Vaak out just to practice, but at least they are getting closer...

Miller returns!

 

[Bruinaura]

Was it this?

The day the world found out Bergeron is a lefty

 

[Gordon Lightfoot]

[Bruinaura]

That's only slightly better than "he has a body injury"

 

[Chief Nine]

Was it this?

Bergie got a good left in there!

 

[Bruinaura]

Bergie got a good left in there!

I love Bergy, but that was pure luck

 

[Chief Nine]

I love Bergy, but that was pure luck

Yeah he's not a fighter by any means, we all remember him and Malkin



but he was really pissed off in the Montreal fight and it showed

 

[neelynugs]

"I know he was in a lot of pain, but I don’t know if there’s anything major which is good news. But I don’t want to speculate"

obviously we don't know what's up with bergy, but i'm gonna take this as good news.
as in it seems like butch was told they don't think it's a major injury, and then he
said what he said, and then he backpedaled with the "don't want to speculate". at least,
that's my optimistic view.

Say what you will about his W/L record in fights, but has a star player ever fought so far above his weight class?

Malkin, Myers and Wheeler are all way bigger than Patrice.

 

[KnightofBoston]

Those comments on Bergy indicate to me it is muscular and not cranial. Hopefully he takes the time he needs and comes back ready to go, he was looking like 100 points this season

 

[TheReal13Linseman]

You said Chara was done about 5y ago.

You were more than wrong...

We definitely should have traded him years ago. We paid him $7 million for years after he turned 35 based upon fealty more than logic. People fall in love with players.
