The fact that he returned to the game tonight is a good sign. I’d imagine he isn’t out more then a couple weeks. He’s clearly injured though.
 
What an absolute warrior. May not have been a storybook comeback tonight, but the drive and determination to show up and play again after that hit in game 4 of the season just shows the strength and character this guy possesses.

Pinto will be a beast in the playoffs. One of those guys who dominates only for us to find out how badly he was suffering throughout afterwards.

He's a game changer

I agree, but he has to figure out the threshold. If you’re going to tell the coach you’re good to go, you have to be able to finish the shift.

He’s a rookie, and the courage is there which is the hard part.

Completely agree. Its one of the places where you'll find a huge contrast between a 'good hockey player' and a 'veteran hockey player.' The body is at its peak in the early years, it's only when the head/mind levels with the strength that a player will really mature.

Why would the staff have let him back on?

It makes me more confident for a fast return. But I have no idea why they'd take the risk so quickly, knowing he was unwilling to take a faceoff and was favoring his arm.

I agree. I respect the fight in the kid but if you cant even hold your stick with 2 hands its probably better if you sat this one out.

Directly responsible for the goal seems like he was trying to get off the ice when he left courture open infront

I don't think Pinto leaving the game again was related to the shoulder, it seemed to be the slash

Blaming him for not defending there is undeserved, he received a 2 hands slash. It should have been a Senators PP instead.

Yeah after taking a two handed slash

I was wondering why the refs missed that, I thought that he momentarily lost focus to move away from the action but it happened before so he must have seen it. Maybe he coudn't double task? lol that sucks because it probably changed the game. And it was lucky goal too, a shot through traffic that lands right on Couture's tape who is left alone because of the slash he gave

That game sucked. Sens deserved a much better fate
