They do seem to be taking it slowly and carefully and the team is making it easy to do that. Enough time in the sauna over Christmas oughta do the trick.

Hip is not what you wanna hear.

As a fantasy hockey GM teams not being clear on injury timetables is THE WORST

Have you considered a move to another pretend job?

I've made attempts at becoming a novelist for years!

Hip is not what you wanna hear.

I guess it depends on what the injury is. If it's a sprain/strain of the hip flexor caused by an impact that heals with time, it's probably not too concerning. Probably the same goes for a hip pointer.

If it's actually a tear of something (like the labrum), then you are right, that's a lot more concerning. My understanding is that eventually requires surgery.

Given his age, I would assume (maybe incorrectly) that it's not something due to over-use, like bursitis, tendonitis, etc...

Hopefully whatever ails him falls into the first category and not the 2nd or 3rd.

I doubt it's anything so bad that he won't be able to continue playing in the short term. And they happen to be well positioned if they think it's long-term to move on. Let's hope it's not that. I don't ever want to see him go through what Backstrom has gone through in the last couple of seasons. And I'd like him to be a big part of what we do for a long time.
