Hopefully he gets healthy soon. Don't rush him back.

Sign Ranger!

He's been out for a while. Got clobbered behind his own net looking back and left himself open for the hit. Wasn't a head shot.

Big loss. We'll need Liles to perform well

Bad news

He's been out since before Christmas, for all we know he's fine and has been just sitting in prep for the season.

Time for the droves of fairweather Leafs fans to start paying attention again.

Hopefully Gardiner is able to play soon.

 

[FlareKnight]

All we really know is that he was able to tweet about the World Juniors . Guess we'll have to wait on any updates.

Because reading the same headlines for the last 4 months was so much more constructive. Good job.

Pretty obvious I meant paying attention to the Marlies/AHL, hence why I posted it in this thread about this piece of news that occurred several weeks ago.

Any chance we sign Ranger? How's he been doing in the AHL?

 

[CerebralDevil]

Yesterday during the Marlies game tey mentioned he was feeling much better and on the bike without any symptoms like he had earlier from whiplash/concussion symptoms. He will be back soon from what they say.

That's good news because with a short training camp he doesn't to fall behind and lose his spot on their depth chart.

At yesterday's Marlies game they said Gardiner has been skating, the headaches have subsided and he is chomping at the bit to return to the line-up, just needing final medical clearance to do so.

So he is close to returning to active duty.

 

[Rob Brown]

Sounds like he'll likely be good to go for the start of the season, seeing as it's probably a week and a bit away.

Welcome back!

Welcome back!

He's a NHL player in a league below him. You can see it anytime he's on the ice.

No doubt he'll be a Leaf.

Pretty sure fairweather Leaf fans have never paid attention to the Marlies.

Better question, when was the last time the leafs had "fairweather"?

 

[Fenton]

Worries me, rarely does a guy come back after a serious concussion and play at 100%. Usually takes awhile for them to get back into game shape, often taking an off season.

I hope he is able to recover to 100% asap.

Eakins said yesterday post-game that Gardiner is riding the bike with no effects, hasn't started skating yet though

Since when was this labelled a serious concussion?

Since when was this labelled a serious concussion?

Since he just labelled it as such.

Since he's working out on and off the ice a couple of weeks after the fact, I seriously doubt it was serious. He'll have a roster spot waiting for him when he gets back, there's no sense to rush him back.
