Player Discussion Kaapo Kakko

[Harbour Dog]

yeah and AFAIR it was like casually "he got surgery, bc I mean what else could it be"

Nope, the poster said that he couldn't go into more detail, but Kakko was likely getting surgery.

‘I’m not speculating, I’m just ruminating on other ppl’s speculation!’

Personally I think it’s his shoulder, likely had surgery. Remember when McD had that? It took him quite some time to get back to himself, and honestly he never found his game to that level with us again. I think it was more mental with McD, good thing KK has strong mental fortitude and doesn’t get down on himself lol. Oh and I’m not speculating, YOU'RE SPECULATING

Ah ok. I stand corrected. Probably was thinking about some other post, hard to remember/keep track of everything.

The shoulder surgery post was posted on this forum and the next day/late afternoon the Rangers announced Kakko would be out for at least one month.

Where was the shoulder surgery mentioned? Someone just said it was the shoulder and now that's the internet truth.

It's the uncertainty from lack of information from the club that is annoying people. It doesn't even have to be specific information just he is doing well etc. But not even that.

The fact that some fans don’t think we are entitled to this information blows my mind. We, quite literally, pay all of the bills. Tell us what’s going on.

Sounds like a lot of people here stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.

As someone else posted, when the league gets deeper into the betting money, injury disclosure will become far more detailed.

That post was a day before the Rangers announced that he'd be out long term.

I know he supposedly had surgery. It's the specific that it was the shoulder I don't trust, that's just people speculating on the nature of the injury. It could be the elbow or wrist as easily.

Damn I was really looking forward to the orthopedic advice. lol

Doubt it. That information doesn't make a difference for betting. All you need to know if a player is in or out and not why. We already get that information.

Considering I don't bet, I don't know enough to disagree. However, the people I do know that bet usually obsess over the smallest details.

Kakko with a cast.

Ugh

 

[LeetchisGod]

Kakko with a cast.

Will probably affect his shot when he comes back, which hasn't exactly been great to begin with. I doubt that he gets anywhere close to 100% until next year.

This is the best info in weeks

You can see the worried look on his face, what if McKegg moves up on the depth chart over me? Chytil first. Im next.

 

[mike14]

He obviously went too hard in table tennis tournament...
Good to see him sitting with all his friends as well

 

[will1066]

Any wrist doctors and physical therapists specializing in wrists in the house?

He lives! Didn't think it was the shoulder.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Better his wrist than shoulder for sure.

What if his shot has been bad because his wrist has been bad..

Probably not but one can hope lol

 

[duhmetreE]

It's his left wrist. His shot is bad for many reasons.... the left wrist isn't one of them

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Wonder if we can go back and find when the injury occurred now that we know what happened.

I vaguely remember a play where he kinda got jammed up on an entry play. Or maybe he blocked a shot or took a slash, I dont know.

Im wondering if it was bone break or fracture they tried to let heal, and it wasnt going well so they opted for surgery
