Injury Report: Ryan Callahan (2/5: Wearing full contact jersey in practice)

I don't think it was deliberate...

...but what the **** was Talbot doing? He had his arm and was jerking him around instead of trying to fight.

I guess he didn't want to get embarrassed like when he tried to paw at Avery.

You're a team captain, you're playing one of your biggest rivals at home, they crash the net and start some funny business.. you start to scrum and get into a little tustle. (Wasnt even a 5 minute major).

If Cally lays him out there everyone loves it and doesnt think twice. If they both skate to the penalty box after a crappy fight or a wrestle we praise the captain for showing some emotion at the Garden... I think its a complete non-issue and monday-morning quarterbacking to say the least. Cally could have run into the side boards or blocked one of the 1,000 shots from the point he blocks each year and got injured just as easily.

This argument is crap, all due respect.

As far as Talbot injuring him? Thats ridiculous. Its a freak injury. Popped his shoulder out, dislocation probably. What concerns me is the length of time its taking to find out. Usually when you have a shoulder injury theyll take some X-rays making the patient hold a weight in that hand to see if theres any separation. I had to do that when i separated my shoulder. They may have wanted to go straight to the MRI and still looking at results. But who am I im no doctor.

Great post. I don't know what is worse, the guys blaming Cally or those going after Talbot for this.

Cuz Talbot had already dropped his gloves and was trying to punch Callahan in the face

Exactly. Not to mention Talbot was whacking away at Hank to begin with. What is he supposed to do? I'm just shocked people are getting on Cally for this.

It was a bad, awkward situation.
 
And like others have mentioned, it sucks but the team has to find a way.

More than ever we are going to need the leadership in the room to step up and set the tone in games with a hit or shot block, which Cally was awesome at doing.

yea you're absolutely right, why should we target Talbot, after all he was the guy Callahan was fighting when this innocent injury transpired...
 
I expected the "Callahan shouldn't be fighting" rhetoric. After all, when he broke his ankle there was a strong movement against the Rangers blocking shots.

The attacks on Talbot are baffling though.
 
No matter what the injury is the Rangers are going to say: Upper body injury and out indefinitely. I'm pretty sure the extent of the injury would have to leak out for us to know anything. The Rangers should and will be tight lipped about this.
 
It could be anything from a slight sprain to a full labrum tear. So anywhere from 2 weeks to 4 months. The way he was holding his arm and rushed off the ice after the incident is not a good indication. I'm expecting the worst.
 
“@NYRangers: #NYR on ice for practice, no Callahan or Kreider...and no official word yet on Callahan's condition”
 
I'm pretty convinced at this point that Cally's going to be out for months. But the more I think about it, the more I'm not certain it's as bad a situation as some think. Cally is the heart and soul for sure, but he can still lead and inspire from afar. But more than that, our team is very good at handling adversity, at the 'never say die' type of mentality. If anything could spark us, bring us together, get us to compete harder, get players to step up and to give others a chance to prove their mettle, this can. This in and of itself could be the type of catalyst that wakes Kreider up, for example.

So it's a blow for sure, as regardless of his performance so far Cally is the face of this team and its ethic. But his inspiration, leadership and example will still be near and felt, and we as a team have the heart and will to compete even harder due to the loss. So time will tell, as to how long Cally will be out and as to how as a team we respond to it. But in some warped yet could quite possibly be the case way, this could end up being just the catalyst we needed...

Mild shoulder sprain out 1 to 2 weeks..book it. Did almost exactly the same thing during MMA grappling. Hurt like a *****

You really think that? Highly unlikely. Talbot said he even felt it pop out. You think that's merely a mild shoulder strain?

Well said, that is definitely how they should respond. Hope they do.
 
“@AGrossRecord: Ryan Callahan will undergo an MRI later today, possible results will be available before tomorrow.. It's his left shoulder.”
 
Feeling Callahan's shoulder pop doesn't mean much. You can feel someone's arm "pop" even if it's just the joint popping like you'd crack your knuckles.

Obviously there's more damage here than that but that still doesn't really tell us much at all
