Winrar.

What was the prompt? Lmao.
I think it was something like:
The Canucks goalie Demko had an injury in April and has still not recovered in September. It's apparently a rare injury that hasn't been seen in a hockey player before and has only rarely occurred in soccer players as well (5 or so total times). It's been reported to be a muscle injury, is in the knee area and surgery isn't an option for rehabilitation. He didn't look like he was in serious pain when it happened - more discomfort. What possible injuries fit the description and what is the most likely?
I think I also asked about timeline and prognosis as well which got some of the other details there.

Hilarious if true.

The media is hilarious. While I'm not saying he is ready for game 1 he was doing almost every drill except the one where he hugs the post on one knee.
The only time I'll panic is if we sign Lankohnen but once we signed that pto fodder, I kind of figured he wasn't that far off. Maybe I'm wrong but I can't see Allvin using Silovs and Pitera or Tolipilo, for more than a few games.
Guess it's time to panic then...

so he could be out for 4months.. or longer.. until he gets a thumbs up from doctors to resume skating/practicing.
He is already skating and practicing so thats good

For what it's worth, ChatGPT o1 preview suggests "isolated popliteus muscle belly rupture" after weighing all the info. :laugh:
This is now my early favourite for post of the season.

What a legend. :D

Sucks he's going through it. I'm a Flyers fan coming for our first game of the season (to see Michkov of course). Demko is my favorite goalie. Was hoping to see him, too. Hope its a quick recovery. Hope you guys have a great season
