Sounds about right.

 

[Alluckks]

I assume that means out for the season

Atleast 4 weeks

hoooray

/s

Guess it depends on which bone he fractured and how bad. Hopefully it's a wakeup call and the rangers get other players to PK next year instead of zibanejad.

Atleast 4 weeks

So, basically the season then lol god damn

 

[RangerBlues]

The dreaded technicolor foot.
That could be a season ender.

 

[Leonardo87]

I’m sick to my stomach right now.

f*** you Hockey gods!

 

[Shadowtron]

There’s that Rangers luck I know and love.

 

[Alluckks]

So either Kakko or Gauthier up with Zib

Kravstov, Gettinger, or Lettieri?

It's gonna just be McKegg coming back into the lineup, isn't it...

He’s not injury prone, he’s just unlucky.

 

[Whoot Whoot]

that’s one of those injuries you can’t rush back

 

[Vitto79]

Put Kakko at LW and bring up Kravtsov

 

[hi]

Rongos

 

[NYR]

Ohh..Of course!
The #Curse continues.
#f***!!

.

to be fair he hadn’t been injury prone. The blood clot is the only thing. This was just bad luck it hit him in the worst spot I’d course

 

[NYR]

A fractured foot has nothing to do with corrective surgery for blood clots.
That doesn't mean he's injury prone.
However.. This is the worst possible timing!

. Were you responding to me? I was basically saying he wasn’t injury prone. Just bad luck.

 

[Captain Midnight]

For my athletes, this is a 6 week injury.

4 weeks bone healing. Then the last 2 weeks are for the final stages of healing and then skating and conditioning.

Much much different than an upper body fracture.

Also depends on if it’s on the outside/lateral side or inside/medial side. If outside, likely 5th metatarsal and depending where, it may need surgery. Still same 6 weeks recovery.

If inside, that’s likely non weight bearing x 6 weeks. Longer recover. More like 8-10 weeks.

 

[RangerBlues]

I guess they bring up Tim Gettinger

 

[nevesis]

Turnovers man...

Blocked a shot I assume? Sabres fan here, just saw this as the latest post- you guys have had the worst luck lately. Awful timing on that one, a car accident with the hottest goalie in the league- damn man, when it rains it pours. Sorry to hear it, Rangers are fun to watch.

blocked shot in side of foot. I knew it wasn’t good when he went to the locker room
