Bruins injury thread III

[ap3lovr]

Kids get some experience... silver lining I guess. I would rather run into depth issues on the backend now than in the playoffs.

Lol some luck this team has uh?

 

[Emerz]

Oh boy.

 

[Dr Hook]

Oh boy.

Eh, not good. Nothing new on McAvoy, Miller is still a few days away too. It's going to be a fun weekend for the Bruins . . .

Surprisingly think we can still take 2 of the 3 games, though it's going to be tough. Wouldn't rule out a decent loss streak here to be honest.

Oh just f*** my life

Yotes are kind of hitting a stride. Dallas is not strong through and through and can be beaten. I'd be happy with 2 out of the 4, but maybe 4 of 4 points is possible if the boys take it up a notch.

good lord, thought last year`s slew of injuries was horrible

If the knee injury is bad, that could be the end of Chara's career sadly.

Assessing the Bruins’ the defensive pairings after Zdeno Chara’s injury - The Boston Globe

DALLAS — He finished his shift, because of course he did
.
However serious Bruins defenseman Zdeno Chara’s lower-body injury is — and it sure didn’t look like a day-to-day deal, given the way his left knee buckled — Big Z once again proved he’s tough.

After wrenching that knee when he checked ex-Bruin Carl Soderberg with 1:07 left in the first period of Wednesday’s 6-3 loss in Colorado, Chara doubled over. But briefly. He was on the ice to defend Nathan MacKinnon, Mikko Rantanen, and Gabriel Landeskog, so grimace all you want, but go, Z, go. Duty called.

The club — which canceled its practice Thursday — announced Chara was en route to Boston to be checked out by team doctors. Standard procedure for a wrenched knee is an MRI, which would reveal any damage to Chara’s ligaments.

What happened to Carlo? We are down to 4 call-ups on the back end. Keeping an eye on the waiver wire... Hopefully someone is returning from injury on another team soon as we can pickup a journeyman type like Kampfer. Maybe time to kick the tires on some recently retired players. Wonder what Beauchemin or Seidenberg are up to.

 

[Paddington]

So, Chara, McAvoy, Miller, Carlo, Vak. If this keeps up, we may have to persuade Bourque to suit up.....or, at the very least, Kyle McLaren..

That looks like desperation to me. We'd be stuck with their contracts when the wounded return. Miller could be back for the Detroit game. Vaakanainen is skating from reports I've read.

McAvoy has been skating as well.

No need to be looking at recently retired players when you have three D that are likely within a week of returning.

John Moore not skating this morning, per Fluto.

I hope you are kidding..

Well, I don't know what to think - if the Bruins pull off a win with this defense I will be pleasantly surprised. WTH did the Bruins do to the Hockey Gods? I foresee Tuukka getting roasted unless he puts up a shutout.

lmao

 

[KlausJopling]

lmao

So 19 games into the season, and already every defenseman has missed a game.

Are these guys literally getting stabbed out there? Man this is insane!

 

[Rubber Biscuit]

Who’s the guy who posted the other night about Chara and Moore being the only D to stay healthy?

 

[Salem13]

Remember the good old days when we were wondering what crazy Donnie was up to with eight serviceable D?

 

[GloryDaze4877]

I wouldn’t read too much into the Carlo to IR move. If he’s in the concussion protocol he’s out a week minimum anyway and putting him on IR frees up a roster spot.

The way these D are dropping, they will need to call a guy up from junior soon.

Hopefully, Miller, Mac, and UV close.

Please fire the trainer, conditioning coach, medical professional that overseas the defense. Maybe they are eating poorly, or training wrong.
