Yeah, I'm sure an achilles tendon tear will be easy to come back fromYou do know that different injuries recover differently right?

Generally speaking returning from an Achilles repair there will be noticeable loss of explosiveness in that ankle for at least a year or 2 post injury. The little bit of good news is that it likely affects a hockey player far less than it would for sports that involve running and jumping as you're not relying on the achilles to be able to quickly load and explode as much in hockey.Yeah, I'm sure an achilles tendon tear will be easy to come back from

I would not expect Sekera's skating to look 100% especially early on when he returns. Achilles ruptures are a pain in the ass.

It still takes a long time for your alchilles to be back to normal, this is pretty common and well known.No need to be ignorant Doctor.
Fact is that an Achilles injury has to be fully healed before you can play. You can play with a knee brace on a knee that isn’t fully healed. You can’t play with a brace on your Achilles the same way.
But you’re the know it all doctor with a crystal ball.
I'm not a fan of this, I'd rather see him play out the season in the AHL and not be plugged into the lineup out of necessity but I am intrigued.
I just hope this isn't a Marody situation where they call him.up and don't play him. What was the point of the Marody call up again?
I can already see Jones after his first shift and Bobbythebrain run some of his analytics.
"He's passed Nurse on the depth chart!"

Thing is guys like Jones need to get a shot to show what they can do at this level at some point. He’s played very well and earned a look. He should get into games, not sit in the press box aka Marody.
Nurse-Larsson
Russell-Benning
Gravel-Jones (he’s been playing the right side)
Garrison isn’t an NHL defenceman anymore and Wideman should only be used sparingly.
Well, I'd be shocked if he played against Winnipeg and if Wideman or Garrison plays well, I don't think we see him for Philly either.
I'd rather see him in the lineup when he earns a spot, not as an injury fill in.
However, he has earned a look due to his strong play in Bakersfield so I hope we get a chance to see what he's got.
That is a record that would make Gretzky blush.Na. I doubt he will ever catch Nurse's "Unnecessary Icings" record.
Pretty sure it's 9.How many games does Caleb have to play this season before he is no longer exempt from the Seattle expansion draft?
It won't just be this season. We will have another season after this one before the expansion draft.How many games does Caleb have to play this season before he is no longer exempt from the Seattle expansion draft?
I think he will be anyway. All of Bear, Lagesson and Jones have played 3 years of pro hockey (AHL or NHL) when expansion happens.How many games does Caleb have to play this season before he is no longer exempt from the Seattle expansion draft?
If you take a look at the Bakersfield thread I posted an update from Woodcroft from Monday. Which if I'm a betting man I suspect Gregor will post an article about some time this week.Can anyone who follows Bakersfield provide the Coles notes on why everyone is so excited about Jones for those that don't follow the AHL?
I'm hearing euphoria that he's is already better than nurse etc.
