Player Discussion: Simon Holmstrom

[BelovedIsles]

I've been impressed with him. He looked particularly good against the Panthers. What stands out to me is his stick work, the puck seems to follow him. He had a breakaway from his savvy stickwork. He also has a deceptively good shot. I see him as a 3rd liner with some offense.

Bennet stuck his leg out when Holmstrom was in a vulnerable position. I really hope he's not out long term (b/c they need bodies), or has limited mobility career wise. You can't write this stuff, just when it looked like he was cementing himself as an NHL regular.

Any word on Holms knee?

Not a peep.

When I had a suspected torn acl, meniscus, and dislocated patella, the doctor's made me wait a few days for the swelling to go down before they would do an MRI, as it wouldn't give them as clear a picture. I'd imagine it could be the same for whatever Simon is going through.

Thought I heard Raty, in his post game, say he was limping a bit but walking on his own....maybe I misunderstood?

I didn't see the post game interview but I saw a picture of him on social media and he's fine.

aww , no ''from left to right'' explanation of who's in the picture .

I'm not an expert but I've had a torn meniscus that didnt require surgery and the swelling is bad for awhile

He's the one all the way to the right.

I don’t recognize the guy second from left but he looks like he could be a player.

Sign him up Lou!

Not with those chicken legs!

He looks like he could have some sort of brace on but that fact that he’s not using crutches and is out on the beach wearing both shoes is a good sign.

Whoever mentioned that it’s common to wait a few days for swelling to go down before an MRI is correct. I’m sure we’ll get an update in a few days.

Maybe the Captain can loan him a quad.

does Holstrom look like a young Larry Bird or is it me?

Looks like Grant Hutton who’s been out for awhile , hopefully he’s back soon.The guy with the baby is Aho. Don’t know who the guy on the far left is.

He can't be anyone in this organization. He has a beard.

At least they aren't out at midnight when it's 10 degrees feeling like zero in a wind storm

Oh yeah, that was THIS idiot️

 

[leeroggy]

I doubt that picture is recent since it’s got to be a sunrise, not sunset

Where some of these guys are from, there is no sun this time of year. It‘s a pleasant day at the beach for them.
