GDT: Flyers/Rangers Part 2 3/5/2013

[Synergy27]

Right now there's just concern for the eye. If it's not the eye, it's generally just a whole lot of pain but no missed time.

Please no Berard. Please no Berard.

This team cannot afford to lose Marc Staal. Hope to hell he is OK.

 

[KreiMeARiver*]

broken orbital.... happened to me in baseball my soph year in hs. NOT fun..

 

[nyrpassion]

literally..nothing but eye. nbc had a close up replay

 

[Swept In Seven]

That hit him right above the eye, I'm going to assume he is going to need some sort of facial reconstruction. Holy **** that was terrible to watch

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

I'm legit nervous. That hit him right in the eye.

 

[Clown Fiesta]

Apparently I am like an hour behind.

 

[RangersFan]

still shocked visors weren't part of last cba negotiations.

 

[HockeyStickHomicide]

Well that quieted the crowd a bit. :/

 

[Riverdale]

Good reason to wear a visor

That had to have hurt like a mother****er

 

[BlueshirtBlitz]

Don't think it caught the eye directly, look like it nailed right above it.

 

[16 To Stanley*]

I'm no Dr. but looks like it got a piece of the helmet so that would be good concussion wise.

HOpefully just a cut and a few stitches.

 

[trilobyte]

Who'e Snider ? thx.

Ed Snider, chairman of Comcast, owner of the Flyers. He's been trying to win a Cup for a while now.

 

[Krams]

If it's a broken orbital bone, he can play with a cage on, right?

 

[Fitzy]

His eye may be in trouble. Another argument for visors.

Hope hes alright.

 

[TriFF51]

Damn, that was scary.

 

[TonsofPuppies*]

**** that sucks. Hope Staal's okay. Can be sure he'll be wearing a visor going forward.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

I think Staal will be fine. Hell come back out with some stitches and be ok.

 

[Florida Ranger]

That scared me.

I really hope it's not as bad as it looks. That looked like it hit his eye.

 

[trilobyte]

wrong thread

 

[nevesis]

First replay looked like it hit on the cheek, the second looked like it hit RIGHT above his eye, and directly on the orbital bone. We can only hope the deflection took just enough off of it to not break the bone, but I dunno. We'll know very shortly...

 

[LORDE]

The fact that he's alive is amazing

 

[Ail]

That is a haunting image.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

That was right in the eye. He's gone for a while I'm betting on.

 

[thewaitingisover]

God ******. God ****ing ******.

 

[Blue Blooded]

Why are some of these idiots not wearing visors!?
