Injury Report: Muzzin

[Kiwe]

Predicting it now, another OT tonight, Dermott spin-o-rama across the blue line to Sandin who shoots towards the net with a Chucky tip in... the curse is finally broken.

GM’s fault for acquiring an older player with a bad back. I am not surprised that such a player misses two of the last three playoffs.

Dubas’ head should be the first to roll if they don’t make the conference finals.

I initially thought that Dubas was one of those smart, young, analytics based general managers. Then he traded a second round choice for Plekanec. We, Montreal fans, couldn't believe any competent general manager would trade any asset of value for a player, who even Helen Keller could see, was Staal-like spent. Not quite as bad as Courtnall for Kordic, but bad. Bergevin bad. How do these morons get hired? More puzzling, how do they keep their jobs. Who ever wins tonight will have great trouble against a rested Winnipeg team, and will be embarrassed if they somehow, improbably, advance to the next round after that. Talk about a pyrrhic victory.

That was Lou who traded for Plekanec.

That's an awful own goal.

Just heard on radio, out for 3 weeks, I assume it’s accurate.

Removing Tavares and Muzzin is too much missing leadership from this group. Time for Joe to step up and rally the troops.

Rip the season

Sounds about right from even the look of it. I reacted right away before they went to commercial break and we saw him going off - my girlfriend didn't understand but i've watched sports long enough to identify that no-contact reaction. Sigh. That being said, I have no idea how these things happen - guy was skating fine to the puck and then pulled up limp. Hydration or tightness issue? No idea, just sucks.

Here’s the issue when you acquire older battle tested experienced defencemen, d men become more injury prone as they age. It’s not a coincidence that the leafs get a more injury prone d man in muzzin than LA. It’s why I had my reservations about the leafs keeping muzzin.

This thread was last open in May of 2021.

I don't think this particular injury report is particularly relevant.

While I agree, I didn’t see a Muzzin injury thread open, so used this older existing thread to see if any reports/updates on Muzzin’s current injury

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Any update?

He'll be staying in Toronto so we won't have any updates till our next practice at home.

After Holl was benched, the Muzzin/Holl pairing has been a lot stronger than many give it credit for.

Muzzin/Holl numbers post-benching:

Ozone faceoff%: 42.57
xGF%: 55.43
Goal Differential: 57.35

Those are top end shutdown numbers. Hope they both come back soon.

There is A LOT you can be critical of Dubas for but that was Lou
