Injury Report: Caufield to miss the rest of the season

[rickthegoon]

The Habs must be cursed by I don’t know what voodoo bull$$t .
I don’t know if there are stats kept somewhere for missed games / regular players / season, but for the last 5 years, Habs must be at the very top of the list of all franchises of all professional sports . This can’t just be bad luck.

 

[Milhouse40]

We'Re good!! We have the perfect replacement....

 

[EXPOS123]

Cole out for the season and Weber is apparently skating.

Is it April fools day?

 

[SupRocket]

At one point, this medical staff needs to be held accountable.

 

[ArtPeur]

Lol

 

[Gustave]

The year we went to the Finals we were lucky with injuries, this year we're unlucky, it's the way she goes.

Hopefully we can get Caufield on an 8 x 8 deal now.

This just guarantees that we finish bottom 4.

f*** this season. Full on Tank Mode activated.

Price, Weber and a plethora of players were injured thoughout the compact Covid season if my memory serves well. Jake Allen had to win some crucial games down the stretch.

 

[Tyson]

This f***ing franchise sold their soul to the devil last century because they are now cursed.

 

[nhlfan9191]

Honestly you could tell something was up
He had lost his smile the last couple weeks, even after he scored
Something was definitely bothering him
f*** man, what a HUGE bummer
He WAS our offense lol
I just wanted 40 so bad this year lol, god damn it ugh

The positive if it was lingering is he was still scoring goals with it.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Probably happened here.

 

[Wats]

The tank has officially gone to hyperdrive. All we need is Suzuki to suddenly be hurt too now.

 

[Tuggy]

What the f***...didn't see this coming.

Hopefully a full recovery and nothing long term.

Damn...

 

[amnesiac]

blessing in disguise

say what you all want.

 

[Hostile Offer]

Well good for the tank i guess.

Caufield is a big part of the future though so even from the rebuild perspective I don't think this is exactly great news. Hope they give him enough time to properly recover and this won't have any serious long term consequences.

 

[The Real Timo]

This is when vets like Anderson and Hoffman step up, right?

 

[Nico Cauzuki]

Im all for the tank but this one hurts wanted Caufield to get 40 this year

 

[Habs Icing]

Hughes's presser from the other day. Paraphrase: Losing is bad up to a point but winning is good only up to a certain point. Kent realized Marty wasn't listening so decided to start pulling his aces out of Marty's hand. I wonder if Suzuki is next.

They allowed CC to play with a shoulder injury and finally decided to pull him. I don't know, man. If Bergevin pulled something like this, the pitchforks would be out. Allowing CC to play with an injury that needs surgery is not very bright.

 

[Milhouse40]

Guhle, then Slafkovsky....and now Caufield

My feeling right now in a gif....

 

[Simarino]

Really frustrating, but if their is a season to be injured long term its this one!! Is it me or the amount of serious injuries among prospects and players from this organzation has been stupidly high the last few seasons!!

not great, but if him missing 35 games in a lost season land them a top 3 pick instead of say 6-8th.... That could very well be the difference between the Habs being serious contenders in the future or not.

This draft isnt 2022.

 

[JHabs]

So even injured to that degree he was still ripping it up? Jeeze.

A total gut punch to fans, but the upside to him rehabbing/resting the season is just too high.

Draft ranking
Potential cap hit
Giving other players opportunities

 

[That Habs Fan]

This is when vets like Anderson and Hoffman step up, right?

By continuing to play, yes. Tank hard for Bedard.

 

[red devil]

blessing in disguise

If it becomes a recurring injury then it definitely isn't a blessing in disguise.

 

[GlassesJacketShirt]

He was allowed to play with a bad shoulder? Am I missing additional context?

I long called for medical staff and trainers to be canned. It isn’t just bad luck.
