I really hope this won't be an issue. =/ http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=453909

"Preparations for the Stanley Cup Final took a painful turn for the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday when goaltender Jonathan Quick left the ice after stopping a shot in practice.

Quick stopped a shot in the shoulder/collarbone area and skated to the boards showing some discomfort. He stayed hunched over by the Kings' bench for a few minutes before leaving the ice without facing another shot."

Anyone at the practice see what happened?

 

[takk]

Kreider striked early?

 

[theMajor]

im sure Jones would do just fine in his place

 

[TonySCV]

Of course... because the Kings needed more adversity.

It's almost comical at this point. Oy vey. Hope it's just a bruise.

Lets see what is what before anyone panics though.

 

[DocWest]

Ugh. This better not be a real problem.

Gonna wait for a full release before jumping off a bridge.

 

[KopitarFAN]

Well, I guess it's a good thing media day coverage is about to start.

 

[Reclamation Project]

No wonder yet on the extent of the injury, but it doesn't look like anything that would keep him from being able to go for Game 1.

Had to read what you wrote twice, though you said jumping off a fridge.

"Why would he jump off a fridge?

Heard Quick "is fine" despite taking puck up high in practice.

Oh, I know what it is: it's an "upper body injury," recovery time expected to be between six minutes and six months. Crystal clear.

 

[ru4reals]

Dear goodness I sure hope he's okay!

And we breathe.

I've updated the thread title to prevent further heart palpitations.

 

[Alisa]

Oh dear God, don't scare me like that.

 

[theMajor]

thankfully it was just a lil snapper, nothing some rest and ice cant fix

Thanks a lot Clifford. Happy it'd upper body and not lower body, that would be a lot scary. Looks like a stinger though.

My first thought as well.

I can guess what went through Clifford's mind at the moment that happened! "Oh ****!!!"

On the flip side. Pain usually reigns Quickie in a bit. Gets him more focused and allows him to slip into god mode more easily!
