All I can say is that if Blake shit the bed on a player with prior injury history and he ends up injured all the time then he’s gone. LA can’t afford to have that pick go south for a player who is always hurt.

Are we talking about one Alex Turcotte who returned from injury to the tune of 2 goals/3 points vs ASU?
 
Entertaining game tonight in Hamilton, Owen Sound ties it a 6 with under one minute left in the third. Owen Sound wins it in OT. Bulldogs simply cannot close out games this year.

Kaliyev instrumental in the go-ahead go for the Dogs with roughly 90 seconds left as he showed good speed creating a great scoring opportunity that was tapped home by Tag Bertuzzi.



He did have a bad turnover in the 1st period in his own zone, but was bailed out by the goalie.

So we are talking about the consensus BPA who had fully recovered from the injury he had in his draft year? Or are we talking about someone else?

The same guy. Missing games on an annual basis for injury = INJURY PRONE.

So he is 2 for 2 over the last few years for significant time missed.

Are we really going to descend into the argument about the meaning of injury prone?
 
to me "injury prone" means a player always gets injured from a variety of things like ankle, knee, elbow, etc. And miss a lot of games every year.

this is different with GV in that he had just a back condition that rendered him in the IR. Also, its still the start of his career so lets not get ahead of ourselves here.

when the kings traded for williams, he was injury prone yet, you can hardly say that about his tenure here.

He missed 7 games lmao

and even half of those were illness not injury
 
Some of you guys need to study up on probability and statistics. Unless a player has some chronic injury (such as groin/concussion) or gets repeating injuries from reckless play or physical frailty -- there is no injury prone. Just bad luck. And with apologies to Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes, there is no law of averages that states "chances go around". Sure in the long run they will tend to even out but as congresswoman AOC's favorite economist Milton Keynes once said -- " in the long run we are all dead".

Good tip for life right there.

There very much is such a thing as injury prone. From previous injuries, size, style of play or movement dysfunction; players can be injury prone. There are even some who believe that genetic makeup can play a large role in whether a player can be injury prone. I will say that not a single one of us has the slightest clue whether someone is injury prone though.

Probably need to as your definition is a rather odd one. A couple of relatively minor injuries in 2 consecutive seasons means nothing. As others have answered half the time he missed his draft year was due to illness (mono iirc). At this point calling him injury prone is hyperbole at best.

You obviously didn't read what I posted.

Turcotte with another goal and an assist tonight . Gives him 25 points in 26 games on the year . He’s really turned it on as of late

edit : first or second line winger for next 10 years ?

I think it's more likely that Vilardi moves to wing and Turcotte is the 1C or 2C because Turcotte is a little better defensively and a better skater.
