I can't believe he was trying to make a play in mid air. The hell with the puck. Brace yourself!

It was looking like it's serious. Thats unfortunate.

 

[Legion34]

Long term as per keefe.

6-8 weeks?

 

[Smif]

Let's say it's a broken wrist, what would that mean for our cap?

 

[DarkKnight]

That has that 4-6 weeks feel.

 

[LeafChief]

Can someone explain the cap benefits of this for me?

 

[djdev]

maybe his new wrist injury will cancel out his old injury and he will come back with his old shot hehee

get better soon mik!

In simple terms, now we don't have to waive Brooks and Liljegren doesn't have to be sent down.

I can’t really explain but if they are right looks like we have some wiggle room to carry extra bodies.

Lovely. Should have traded him before this happened anyways.

 

[Holls Blackmail]

Broken Soup. Time for Brooks to step up.

 

[Zybalto]

He can still skate to keep those wheels in shape until he gets better. Tough luck again for him as he was primed to get that shot at the top 6.

 

[zeke]

Sucks but weirdly works out perfectly for us.

Lets us keep both Engvall and Lilly up, and gets Bunting up onto the Tavares line where he's probably a better option than mikky.

Edit: didn't even realize that LTIR would let us keep Brooksie too. Weirdly perfect injury as bad as that sounds.

Toronto Maple Leafs forward Ilya Mikheyev out 'long-term' with injury

[fahad203]

What is the definition of long around here ?

 

[ottomaddox]

He's not a top 6 forward. I feel for Mikheyev, but why did Keefe give him this opportunity? Why did he entertain the idea?

 

[Coachcorner]

Long term as per keefe.

6-8 weeks?

Here's to hoping for a fine and relaxing recovery to the big man mikheyev. He one fast motha out there. Now relax, eat, drink and smoke some.

Bunting finna KILL ALL OF Y'ALLS this season. HARD HE READY, STEADY like bebob and rock n steady for life sire. FOR US.

 

[stickty111]

Feel for him

[GoodNewfieBoy]

Feel bad for the player. Feel good for the team

 

[Gabriel426]

A Russian was on LTIR last season and he ended up helping his team win the Cup.
Will history repeat itself?


Tough to lose him but it actually works out for the best for everyone.

 

[Menzinger]

Wish him as quick a recovery as possible. He seemed poised for a come back season of sorts.

Silver lining is the team gets some much needed temporary cap relief to sort some things out
