Player Discussion Shane Pinto (C) - PART 2

[L'Aveuglette]

Uh huh. That's my point, he's made similar statements before and the players were out for several more games.

Well, when Norris got hurt in the game vs the Wild, Green said he'd miss a few weeks. That was a few weeks ago, so seems right on schedule.

Pinto I think they were hopeful would be ready for the game against Fla if I recall, but that may have been before they were able to do further testing. .

Some injuries don't have as clear of a timeline as others. Broken bones are pretty easy, while something like a bad back is close to throwing darts to figure out when they'll be back.

Seems like making a mountain out of a molehill to me,

Great, so you're ok with telling the fanbase a player will be out "a few games" and then that player is out for 2-3 weeks?

This has been happening all season long. Maybe if it was just near the TDL I'd understand, but the fans deserve some transparency from the team when it comes to injuries.

Day to day and a few weeks are the same thing, we don't know it could be any time. Could they play in the playoffs, maybe, but against Montreal when we have another 3 days off? Maybe you sit out.

Most teams are vague about injuries, unless you are Vegas and everyone needs to go on LTIR.

criticism of Green has shifted from his ability to coach in this league to the appearance of perhaps not being completely forth coming on when players are to return from injuries. Have to whine about something.
