GDT: Jets @ Leafs 7PM CBC

[ECanuck]

Alright, let's go boys. Get one!

 

[jrgtml67]

Well well...Nylander now has an edge, especially if we start to fall apart in Matthew's absence. The lines aren't anywhere near as potent once you take him out of the mix.

 

[Throw More Waffles]

For f***s sake.

 

[Confucius]

I had that kind of hit. Best case is separated shoulder.

best injury broken collar bone, best case no injury... and its a shoulder shit

 

[Nineteen67]

Still not giving Nylander $8 or $7 for that matter.

Depending on the injury the best option might be to tank and go for a draft pick

 

[LeafsHome]

If he's out, there's no way you can give him the big $

 

[TheBeastCoast]

So shoulders are "strange" and once you hurt them once, they continuously just keep getting hurt even on routine body checks.

You're really not concerned about that in regards to Matthews?

I didn't say I wasn't concerned....It's just the way shoulders can be. I'm not gonna cry about it.

what

 

[Mitchy]

Why the hell is Hughson keep trying to push this Jets have been dominant narrative?

 

[Jmo89]

I think he has mono. He will be good in 6 months after recovering.

Did he give it to Marleau?

 

[Sonny21]

Hopefully Leafs regain their composure and get back in this game.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Depending on the injury the best option might be to tank and go for a draft pick

not to worry, the Leafs already have at least one draft pick

 

[gamer1035]

I hope this shoulder thing doesn't follow him for the rest of his career.

 

[saffronleaf]

Did he give it to Marleau?

Marleau has osteoporosis.

 

[Throw More Waffles]

We dont even know what the injury is yet. So not really a good idea to jump to conclusions.

As for Matthews and Nylander, I'd pay more for 60 games of Matthews than I would for 80 games of Nylander.

I like how I say "Let's hope he's back in the 3rd or next game, and we can all put this behind us" and you respond by saying "We don't even know what the injury is yet. So not really a good idea to jump to conclusions."

Did you read my post? What is happening?

Because he's a moron and a leaf hater

 

[Walshy7]

because he is a whiny Vancouver fan, if we were leading in this same game (which could have been possible) hed be spouting off about how the jets are pushing etc

 

[saffronleaf]

I feel bad for Tavares. The Leafs without Matthews and Nylander really isn't much better than the Islanders (with Tavares).

 

[Confucius]

I generally don't criticize but f*** Marleau what kind of shot was that?

 

[Puckstuff]

I had that kind of hit. Best case is separated shoulder.

Yeah. I've dealt with shoulder injuries since 21. This will effect Matthews for his entire career. That said, unlike baseball you can manage shoulder pain in hockey because you're not putting massive strain on those muscles. Im not a doctor but i'm an expert in shoulder injuries and I can say that when you know you're injured, you know right away. Obviously we don't know the exact nature of this but the treatment for rotator, ligament damage is similar. The look on his face you can tell it's serious.

 

[Nooodles]

It already is. Look at the hit, it's a nothing play.
It's a joke.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

I wouldn't go that far, but I agree. Tavares is so unlucky he didn't get to end up playing with Nylander yet

 

[socko]

Tavares pretty much back to the Islanders without Matthews in the lineup.

Pray there is no structural damage/QUOTE]
