GDT: Game 70: 3/17 Luck of the Irish Bruins @Tampa Bay Lightning 7pm ET NESN, 98.5 FM

[DKH]

Beers worried about Backes where it was

 

[Bruinaura]

Seriously it looked like his leg was just dangling

 

[Chief Nine]

What an effort, never underestimate this team or this coaching staff

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Fingers crossed for Backes.

 

[Fopppa]

DB can’t catch a break lately. Hope it’s not serious.

 

[Pay Carl]

Wow

I genuinely feel terrible for Backes

Guy has has some terrible luck

 

[DKH]

One game on the TV, this one on the iPad. Over to the stove to pull things out, over to the fridge to grab a beer. Playing with the dog on the way back to the couch. In classic adult ADD fashion!

I hear yah - thankful for rewind

 

[BMC]

This is bad people, very bad.

 

[Hali33]

So that looked bad for Backes.

 

[SerenityRick]

I'm hoping that's just a flesh wound.

I think the leg looked "weird" because his shin pad was moved, I don't think anything was wrong with his knee or anything

 

[badbrewin]

Cut on his leg

Hopefully it's just an outer cut and no tendons involved. Yikes.

 

[Bruinaura]

Please be okay Backes

 

[missingchicklet]

Excellent period from the Bs. Griz and Riley Nash looked tremendous. Not a fan of Marchy getting checked into the goalie leading to the Backes' injury.

 

[JCRO]

Wow

I genuinely feel terrible for Backes

Guy has has some terrible luck

Very true.

 

[ranold26]

Too high for an Achilles.
Hamstring?

 

[Ladyfan]

Keven in full protection mode. He may hit someone tonight

 

[Trap Jesus]

Didn't even notice any type of bend, was concentrated on the skate going in. Was his knee/leg bent awkwardly?

 

[Rubber Biscuit]

It looked like he got up by putting weight on that leg so that's a relatively positive sign, right?

 

[pgm16]

It was a great period , except for Backes leg...

 

[Fopppa]

I'm hoping that's just a flesh wound.

I think the leg looked "weird" because his shin pad was moved, I don't think anything was wrong with his knee or anything

Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking/hoping as well.

 

[lopey]

Hopefully it's just an outer cut and no tendons involved. Yikes.

Yeah those skates are razor sharp

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

If something important got hit with that blade, he’s done.

 

[Bruinaura]

I'm hoping that's just a flesh wound.

I think the leg looked "weird" because his shin pad was moved, I don't think anything was wrong with his knee or anything

I sure hope you are right

 

[Chief Nine]

I'm hoping that's just a flesh wound.

I think the leg looked "weird" because his shin pad was moved, I don't think anything was wrong with his knee or anything

Agree. Hope it’s something they can stitch up and he heals quickly

 

[caz16]

That was a lot of blood.....I hope he is okay.
