Speculation: Caps Roster General Discussion (Coaching/FAs/Cap/Lines/etc) | 2024-25 Summer Edition

[Roshi]

Summarized :

If he's not back before Christmas, he will be back after Christmas.

So we can rule out that he could be back during christmas?

Its better than i feared, worse than i hoped.

Was hoping it would be like the time i felt crushing pain in my wrist for clicking too much F4 yesterday to refresh news for Ovie injury, but then it felt good again after resting couple hours.

 

[zappa4ever]

we don't know shit still

The internet experts have it as:
MCL/ACL/GDTRFB/fracture/bone bruise/ankle sprain/brain cloud/hysterical pregnancy/hangnail/whatever

We'll know *a little* more after the doctors today when they choose to tell us a tiny bit more on a timeline

Well shit, there goes my plan of asking Santa to fix him.

Miro has been recalled. Interested to see if they throw him in the 1LW spot or move others around.

Vacation with the camels coming up? Then another one during the 4 Nations -break.

Rocket isn't out of reach if you finish with 65 goals in 70 games.

Sounds like Miro is taking the Ovie spot

 

[Holtbyisms]

They should literally just plug Miro into Ovi's role on the ice and see how it goes. The lines are clicking don't overthink it. Worst case scenario you limit his icetime in game on the line type situations. But realistically the Ovi line is getting a lot of favorable starts and matchups since PLD and Dowds lines are handling the heavy lifting so in a sense Miro would already be insulated by playing the same role as 8.

6 to 8 weeks

In Ovi years that's like next Thursday.

"I tore my ACL playing frisbee"
"I stepped awkwardly in dog shit and sprained my ankle"
"I hurt my knee on a late night expedition to the fridge for a piece of cheese"

I did all three of those things. Except it wasn't cheese; it was pie. The last piece of pie, and it was dark cuz I was tryin to be stealthy. Never was clear what exactly hit me, so my wife prolly gave me the ol' Tanya Harding. It was apple pie. Worth it.

How do you know these things?
