Well. Talk about the worst possible player to lose from the lineup.

Guess we'll be seeing a lot of Desharnais.

>>OFFICIAL: #NYR Mika Zibanejad is not on the ice today and is out due to a concussion. When? Anyone catch when this happened?

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

The worst player for us to lose to injury. Hopefully this isn't a long term injury and Mika recovers quickly.

 

[Savant]

Did this happen in practice? I haven’t watched as many games as I did last year, but from what I have seen, I cannot think of a hit that Zibanejad took all season that would have caused a concussion.

 

[Hire Sather]

Of course. Hope he plays soon cause you just never know.

Worried.

 

[Gravey22]

Hopefully not a big issue. Kind of a surprise injury so maybe not severe. Caution is warranted.

 

[eco's bones]

The worst player to lose to injury would be Henrik because we'd be stuck with finding out just how good Pavelec is. Zibanejad is probably the second worst--primarily because he's our best center and we're weak at the position. Hopefully it's not a serious concussion and he's not out very long.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Why is Zibanejad taking warm ups when he has a concussion?

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Uh that’s not good

 

[Ori]

wow, this might be a long term injury.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Why is Zibanejad taking warm ups when he has a concussion?

Maybe he thought it was the flu? Or maybe a jaw or neck injury?

Bring Chytil back up and give him an actual look, more than 6 minutes a game.

this is f***ed this whole thing is f***ed wheres the bridge i must lead all of the faithful. No but seriously concussions are no joke hopefully he has a quick rebound and it doesn't affect his play too long.

Must be at practice. I watched everygame this year and can't remember him taking a strong hit.
Seriously, our luck is terrible.

Hank would be the worst because we already know how good Pavelec is, and it’s not very good at all.

I don't remember which game but he took a big hit a few games ago. If he is out long term, this team isn't making the playoffs.

 

[member 116805]

Did his hands slip when he put his head phones on? Can't remember seeing him getting hit

 

[Matt Rentfree]

Note to self. Don't open HF Boards before you're fully awake and the coffee has finished brewing - it can potentially ruin your whole morning. This sucks.

Detroit, took a pretty big hit late in the 3rd.

 

[McRanger]

When I saw "upper body injury" I was praying it wasn't this.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Detroit, took a pretty big hit late in the 3rd.

Yeah, I remember it took him awhile to get up from that. I was surprised when he came out for his next shift.

I'm thinking I agree with you and even worse I don't know if Georgiev in Hartford is at all ready either.
