Anyone have a video of the hit that injured Jake? I haven’t seen what happened.

I haven't seen it but I can still see the Kronwall hit in my mind

Didn't he come back and play that game? Wild times.

edit: maybe not only 9 minutes TOI.

Jake update:

Voracek will make 'best efforts' to play again after concussion, but it won't be soon

Voracek said he's had "seven or eight" documented concussions during his 15-year NHL career. He last played Nov. 4.

theathletic.com

“Obviously, I sustained a concussion in Finland,” Voracek said, referring to his last game, the NHL Global Series between Columbus and Colorado in Tampere on Nov. 4. “After talking to many people and many doctors, we came to the conclusion that, as of now, I’m not capable of coming back, or I won’t be coming back anytime soon.

“I’m going to make my best efforts to try (and play again), but it might be a long process. As of now, I don’t see myself playing in the near future. But I’ll do everything I can to get back on the ice.”

When asked if there was a chance he’d return to play this season, Voracek responded: “Very slim.”

Voracek said his day-to-day symptoms now are manageable, that he’s “capable of living a normal life off the ice, which is important.” He declined to discuss publicly what symptoms he’s having or how frequently he has them.

“I can tell you that right now (retirement) is not in my mind,” Voracek said. “There’s a lot of time to recover from (this).

“I wouldn’t say I’m a sentimental person that gets stuck on things if I can’t do them. If I can’t, or they tell me I’m not allowed to, I’ll just move on and do something else. I think that’s the right approach for me right here.”

I haven't gone through the thread to see any discussion on Binnington, but I'll say this. I would pay good money to see Deslauriers beat the living crap out of that cheap shot punk.

"7 or 8 concussions and then there were some the doctors were not sure about"
Ughhh.... This is just. Not worth it. Is it?

if i were a betting man. id say hes unofficaly officaly retiring..

ill be very surprized if he risks his after hockey life quality by coming back.

im sure as a pro he wants to keep playing. but the reality is he hangs up the skates

Guys rarely, if ever, come back successfully from PCS.

That's my presumption as well. That he's still holding out some small hope that things will magically get better by next year but not expecting it.

 

[kudymen]

In addition to that, Jake has got that Kluk Puk foundation for people suffering from multiple sclerosis - mainly due to the story of his sister. He understands the value of quality of life because of all these stories so close to him. I believe he would never risk more than necessary in that

Gee I wonder where this happened and whether they just said "play through it!" or not

I would explode with rage if you were any close to truth there. The Flyers would manage to find one FINAL nail for me. And one I would never forgive

What else would you expect? They kept shaving Masons bone cartilage or whatever until his coach quit. Simmer said at one point during 18-19 season he played through 4 different injuries at the same time. Couts playing on one knee, G got concussed that one time by Subban and played through a stretch of a games where he looked utterly hazy at best yet they didn't rest him. Ghost and Elliot playing on bum hips for half a season until inevitable surgery and so on. Flyers medical staff is worse than freaking inquisition. I'm not even clear on what happened to Patrick but it may have been some misdiagnosed issue that was compounded until it turned out to be migraines or what not.

I guess it's my own version of Stockholm syndrome there, eh. But.. yeah. Yeah.

Outside of few slow in the head types we all loved Jake for everything he brought to his team, our team. Outside of Jagr Im not even sure who was the last RW we had who had as big of an impact as Jake.

 

[MacDonald4MVP]

I hope people get to see those SO goals.....and compare them to the Flyers the last 10+ years.

We just need a shoot first guy. Someone like Atkinson.

I'd still cheer for Binnington. That's how much I hate Fletcher.
