Nick Foligno Discussion

[PromisedLand]

We need to hear that food Foligno news in the morning.

yea I would like some news on the "food" Foligno too

I wonder if the league even care about those games , if Winnipeg and Montreal win one more each and Van and Calgary lose one each then its a done deal really , they could bump our games with the Sens and Jets forward 1 day and end the season on the 13th with no consequences in the standings

Correction if it matters to the Oilers going forward they could drop the Van-Calgary game on the 14th and move the Oilers - Nucks to that day and end the North division on the 14th without changing our scheddy

is it some sort of pasta?

 

[PromisedLand]

is it some sort of pasta?

I know about Reginos Pizza (decent not awesome but helluva lot better than pizza pizza and dominos lol)

May be it is a combination of pizza with "flaovred" pasta toppings

From all I have read, they are committed to finishing the season. Probably for multiple reasons, not least of which would be the expectations from advertisers.

They gave themselves some leeway anyways knowing that there might be some cases of the virus throughout the season.

They could start the playoffs while those teams are finishing up their seasons

 

[McSnypsky]

Wouldn't that be then 'Days to Days"

 

[Thornbury]

Well that is WAY better than any long term injury. Let him rest up and just be ready for the playoffs, or maybe a game before the playoffs.

My guess is that he had a back spasm, given it was not a specific hit or fall that set it off. He moved very gingerly walking up the hallway upon leaving the ice. Taking a week off would seem to be the required course of action if it was that.

 

[The Assclown]

That seems to be the best we can hope for, but strains are difficult to project in terms of recovery. Day to day sounds like it characterizes a strain. I’m happy it wasn’t a done for the year update!

 

[BTP]

Phew.. day to day is the best we can get. Should be well rested for the playoffs.

 

[leaffaninvancouver]

That's great news.

 

[The90]

I am amazed not a single update has been made. Not sure what to make of that.

Other leagues are so much smarter when it comes to resting players, they understand that the postseason is all that matters. I get wanting to play but with only a few games left health should be the priority.

So who do you rest? The whole team? If they picked and chose who was to be rested, and who wasn’t, foligno likely isn’t rested.

 

[sxvnert]

"Day to day" = "Please don't panic"

 

[Suntouchable13]

If he is not playing game 1 of the playoffs then you worry. Until then he can take all time off he needs.

 

[Mr Knies Guy]

I’ve loved me Foligno so far, just as expected and advertised - he had a really nice hit last game he played on the Ozone, just a simple heavy finish, nothing too aggressive but it’s effective

Matthews and Marner are a half foot taller with him on their line

I just hope it’s not a Nolan situation and we see him again because we’ll likely not see him next year

 

[crump]

Refreshing to see someone finish a check without putting themselves out of position. Solid two week to get himself healthy again. Him, Simmonds and Hyman on the team at the same time will be great.

 

[Le Cobra]

is there really any point in playing our top players for the remaining games? just play all the rookies. Its way too risky to risk injury to our playoff lines for non playoff games that really dont matter at this point

The moment Matthews hits 40, I’m okay with them just resting people. Don’t really care if the Oilers pass us. The Jets and the Habs are a toss up for 4th seed anyway

Sounds delicious!

[Superstar]

Good thing he wasn't using a cane instead of a hockey stick...

Too funny that's the first thing I thought of as well. I had hip replacement surgery and that was the phrase around here for a few days. He's walking on his own now. lol

 

[Stephen]

Sounds like he's on the mend and on a load management regime.

 

[CanadasTeam]

Sounds like he's on the mend and on a load management regime.

Foligno and Hyman should both be back in the playoffs... I wonder how Bogosian is progressing.
