Him coming back early is a good thing for me in the first goals contest..

From The Athletic:

Pacioretty also shared that he had a different surgical technique done than the other players who had the same injury.

“I actually had a minimally invasive technique which is a little bit newer and different,” he said. The idea is that there’s less scar tissue with this particular procedure. Which may or may not lead to a quicker healing process. “Everyone says it’s a four to six months recovery,” Pacioretty said. “Two months is a big difference.”

Pacioretty was skating last week, wasn't he? Wondering if he'll be available in january or even December?

Yes he was skating. But apparently still a bit of a ways off. Hopefully by New Years he'll be ready.

Still no updates on Andersen?

Well, this is an organization that won’t even update RE: an in-game goalie injury (Antii).

Lol: Freddie will just drop in one day in the start without anyone knowing beforehand.

It’s also an organization that seemingly lied about Freddie’s return in order to sell playoff tickets.

You guys realize this is a severed achilles tendon in a guy in his mid 30's, right? Who has a history of injuries? As a guy who who has been busted up from here to Sunday and has a whole lot of friends the same- he may not come back from this. It's a BFD. Yeah- Raleigh Ortho is great and all, but...

Just put some duct tape on him and make sure he can play in the playoffs. That's all we need.

Wrist bone now connected to the heel bone? Thanks for enlightening us on worst case and unlikely scenario here.

He doesnt need the burst from his feet like he would in another sport. its very conceivable that he returns no worse for wear from this.

He'll still skate better than Koko.

What happens when Andersen comes back? Is Pyotr getting sent down to the minors? Or do they move Raanta?

Asking for fantasy hockey purposes lol

Dw said Pyotr goes to Chicago to maximize his starts

Best guess is Pyotr goes back to the AHL but I think no one will know for sure until it happens. And even if he does get sent down odds are Freddie or Raanta gets hurt again... There is a small chance Pyotr's play earns him a spot with the Canes this year even if we're fully healthy but I think that's much less likely

The shitty thing about it is that he’s played better than Andersen and Raanta when they were both deemed “healthy”.

Don't worry. We'll get about 2 games of them both being healthy before Kochetkov is back up as the 1a.

Raanta gets sacrificed to the injury gods

So a year expressed as a number..

No word. Check the actual Andersen injury thread if you’d like more updates.
