All I am reading on twitter are real bad case scenarios. Anyone know of any kind of shoulder injury that would just be day to day?
A recovery time table of 3-4 weeks or less is not the end of the world. Anything more than that though and I'll be worried

I am actually fairly calm about this situation given the depth that has been built in the organization. Scheif will be missed but I think the Jets will be fine. just like they were when Buff and Toby went down. depth is a beautiful thing.

I imagined so as well but apparently according to google the recovery time of a dislocated shoulder is 4-12 weeks. And here I spent all my life thinking that you can just pop the shoulder back in and go back to doing action and martial arts as they do in movies.
I've seen players pop it back in on the sideline and go back to playing...

I'm guessing, from what I saw on the ice and his trip to the dressing room, that we won't see him on the ice until Louis Riel weekend...

Three possibilities...
Best case... Soft tissue bruising. That would be a couple of weeks or less.
Other (more likely) possibilities....
Fractured clavicle.... Weeks to a few months, depending on the severity (from a non-displaced crack to a complete fracture). A bad fracture and he'll be out a long time.
Acromioclavicular sprain or separation... This could be a mild sprain of the ligaments that would have him out 2-3 weeks, to a complete tear requiring surgery that would have him out for months.
I'm expecting something that has him out a minimum of 4-6 weeks. Could be longer. I hate shoulder injuries.

I doubt it's a dislocated shoulder. It doesn't usually happen with an injury with the force to the outside of the shoulder. A fractured clavicle or a shoulder separation seems more likely, in my view.
Shoulder injuries aren't day-to-day. They can affect functionality for a long time and also linger.
The hope is that he actually won't take too long a time to regain proper functionality. Personally, I'm much more worried about injuries to these complex joints than just some broken bones.

A partial fracture of the clavicle might be the best case. It usually heals completely and quickly, if the break isn't severe.

It's never lupus.

Agree. A more complicated injury to the shoulder could affect his entire career somewhat going forward.
That would be much better because while healing would take a while, there's no reason he wouldn't gain full functionality and that sort of an injury also shouldn't really linger or start randomly nagging to my knowledge. I'd feel much more comfortable with that.

There’s little doubt in my mind that something else was bothering him as well. Hopefully that will all heal up as well.
This injury hurt the Jets the most. I mean, you move Little up so he faces the tough matchups there is no way Maurice is playing Ehlers Roslo and Laine together he wouldn't think they have got enough D. So You break Copp and Lowry up and one of them takes the 2nd line? Neither of them are good enough. Perrault, Roslo, and Laine? What are you guys thinking?
