As I recall:

Samuelsson - Out for the playoffs during Nashville series
Kesler - Torn hip labrum
Higgins - Broken foot
Raymond - Out for playoffs after Game 6 vs Bruins
Malhotra - Puck to eye

Ehrhoff - Separated Shoulder
Hamhuis - Out for playoffs after Game 1 vs Bruins
Edler - Broken Hand
Bieksa - MCL sprain
Rome - Suspender after Game 3 vs Bruins

Maybe we still hang on if Hamhuis never hip checks Lucic, or if Boychuk gets called for the major he deserved for his hit on Raymond.

Henrik also played through a back injury through those last 2 round as well iirc and was getting Toradol injections before each game. Retrospectively, it's actually a miracle we made it to game 7 against the Bruins.

Yep. Henrik stopped taking any faceoffs around game 4 of the San Jose series. He forced himself to against the Bruins, but eventually had to pull back there too as he just couldn't do it.

It's why I always get so annoyed at how much shit Luongo endured for letting him so many goals. He literally had nothing to work with due to all our injures.

I don't know that Henrik's back ever truly recovered. IIRC, he wore a back brace for the rest of his career after that playoff run.

EDIT: I also think Kesler both tore his hip labrum, and ripped his groin - on the same leg. So basically one leg was pretty much useless.

Probably should have been a penalty on Joshua there, but Boeser being hauled down in the first few minutes should have been, too.

Hopefully our power play is ready to go. Come on, boys!

Considering the sheer number of injuries we accumulated throughout the playoffs, to the point every single one of our top six and top four except for Samuelsson, was injured. I dunno if I'd say everything went our way. Speaking of that, you just have to love the sick irony of the hockey gods. The near perpetually injured Samuelsson is healthy the ONE TIME nobody else is.

I'll forever maintain we beat Boston if not for Kesler barely able to skate and Hamhuis being knocked out in game 1. Just one of them changes that series instantly. Alas, c'est la vie.

Sammy didn’t play a single game past game 5 vs NSH. He was injured all year.

Unless you meant Salo, which is even f***ing funnier.
