Injury Report: Injured Players Thread (3/6: Staal Out Indefinitely; Not Career Threatening)

[Jarkko Immonen]

This is what I was told too. I don't know much about Haley though.

Ben should get another shot. I thought he looked good while he was up.

Was there ever a qualified source on that? Haley has been looking good in Hartford the last few weeks. I don't get the doesn't care/depressed vibe from him that I got from, say, Patrick Rissmiller.

I hope Kaleta gets Marchment'd. He is now the only guy in the NHL I wish to see taken out due to injury. I had zero respect for Marchment (and it was HILARIOUS how his career was ended due to a knee injury), and the same is for Kaleta. These guys should just not be in the league. I hope he gets some of his own medicine and he can't play anymore. If this guy wasn't out there trying to injure other players, I'd never say something like that. But he's as egregious as Marchment was.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Nash will go down as one of the most dominant players this team has had. He is in the realm of Jagr for us in terms of his ability to dominate the play. I wish he could have been like a young Jagr, but I'll take the older Jagr we had any day of the week.

Ugly hit by Kaleta on Richards. Dumb play by a dumb player. Someone will get that guy one day.

Strudsy da G.

Kaleta is a joke.

"I’m going to keep it as limited as I can, but I’m just sorry for the position I put the team in trying to kill that penalty. I feel for that, for putting the penalty killers out there and them getting the two goals. It makes me feel like a bag of garbage after seeing that."

When asked if he had a message for Richards, he paused and simply said...

"I’m fine for right now."

Sorry for what he did to his team, not sorry at all for what he did to Richards. No remorse, whatsoever.

 

[The Gloaming]

If Kaleta plays next Tuesday, Stu Pickles should go out and pummel him in warm ups. He'll turtle so fast.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

What a scum bag. Plain and simple.

 

[Leetch66]

I would say Richards would almost have to have had some whiplash type pain today from that hit . Who knows...might be worse tomorrow ?

yea he's a big dink, even freaking Cooke said sorry to Karlsson..........Matt Cooke

Oh well punch him in the face next time. This is why the team needs Asham healthy soon

 

[Barnaby]

I'd love to see Haley brought up for the next Buffalo game... He was a force against Pitt when he was with the Isles last year - let's see him drop em' with Miller!

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

I don't think anyone should be brought up for pure fighting. If you're a heavyweight puncher sure, but you gotta have some other quality that makes you a valuable asset.

Like Bickel?

 

[Swedish Fish]

I was actually pretty excited when we signed Haley, guy can seriously throw some haymakers.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Richards left ice early. Not sure if precautionary

@NYDNRangers

Don't think Richards is playing tonight, but nothing official from #NYR yet

@AGrossRecord

Long story short, Richards not a definite to play tonight. #NYR would either have to call up F from #CTWhale or use Gilroy up front.

Oh My GOD, Someone please get Haley up here right now in case Richards can't go. I have mini-aneurysms every time Gilroy touches the puck.

THAT WAS QUICK!! Thanks!!

@stevezipay

Rangers have recalled Micheal Haley from CT Whale, so looks as if Richards will be a game-time decision

I'm told Brad Richards is very stiff and sore and most definitely won't play tonight.

No Richards. Still diving must be....

 

[The Gloaming]

No Richards. Still diving must be....

I can't get over as to how someone would be so ****ing stupid to think that he was faking or selling it. Reading things like that really boils my blood. I'm sure that everyone else would be perfectly fine if their head got smashed into the boards and their neck severely bent. ****ing idiots.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

HF where everyone is right except the professionals pretty much. Someone tried telling me Richie is staying out purposely.

Did this person give any possible reason why that would make sense?

HF-where logic flies out the window and my opinion is better than yours.

Staal Injury

That was a nasty injury. I hope that is an orbital fracture and not a eye globe collapse. Another injury that could have been prevented by the visor. Such a shame.

 

[KreiMeARiver*]

looks bad...not fun...hope he's ok

 

[Evergreen]

Man, I hate seeing players get hit near the eye. I hope we hear some good news that there is no eye damage soon. At this point, an orbital bone fracture would be welcome news. As a Flyers fan, watching Laperriere get hit in the face twice was tough to watch. Hope we don't have another serious injury on our hands.
