Player Discussion Connor Zary, C, 24th Overall 2020 Draft

[Lunatik]

The radio silence on this feels eerily similar to when Gio went down and was out for the season back in 2015

That was more strategic because of the playoffs coming, this is more likely because they're on the mom's trip and traveling today.

No fracture is good? Isn’t ACL/MCL stuff more from like an awkward bend than direct contact? I’m not a doctor

IIRC, ACL/MCL tears are a little more permanent than a broken bone and will never fully heal. It'll always be at less than 100% and will have nagging pain and inflammation. A broken bone can still go back to 100%.

You prefer MCL over ACL injury, but honestly, perhaps a fracture over either.

One thing to remember though, a broken femur can be EXTREMELY dangerous, even life threatening. If there is a displaced fracture it can cut an artery, blood vessels and/or nerves.

Fan960 this morning, may not be any damage to ACL or MCL, which is outstanding news.

Somehow everything we needed and didn't need at the same time. Thank the hockey gods!

So day to day?

Knock on wood that the rest of the tests go fine, but this is incredible news.

 

[SaintMorose]

Great news to start, I don't care at all about Zary's performance this January would much rather see him be solid to finish and through the off-season hopefully team feels the same way and gets him closer to 100% than we have players in the past

 

[Boomstick]

I'm so happy. What a surprised, that was one gnarly collision and the way he reached for his knee, I just expected the worst. Wow. Hoping these reports continue to give us more good news on Zary.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

So day to day?

Back in time for playoffs.

Probably have to rule out other things though. Week to week, maybe?

 

[flames23]

What great news to see. Here's to a swift and productive recovery.
