Injury Report: The Injury Thread || Jarnkrok month to month || Kampf on LTIR || Domi on IR || Knies on IR

[DarkKnight]

JT said Knies has "been in good spirits last couple days" and hoped it was a "quick turnaournd", so I don't think it's a serious concussion, more precaution.

Or other injury, bruising etc

 

[The Apologist]

Knies on IR as well.

But Reaves got 5.

We have to call someone up now, no?

Who's next up? What opportunities this give kids to show us what they can do when called upon. Do we know who they called up?

Line up for Sunday?

Robertson Tavares Marner
W. Nylander Holmberg A. Nylander
McMann Minten Grebenkin
Lorentz Dewar Steeves
Shaw? Hirvonen? Quillan?

I believe Reaves still eats up a roster spot while suspended so we're maxed out at 23 players right now.

Ahhh, yep.

12 forwards I listed as the line up then. Opportunities for Grebenkin, Minten and Nylander to see if they can crack the top nine. Steeves looking at the bottom six.

This definitely creates competition for Robertson, Holmberg, Dewar, Kampf, and Reaves. That's a good thing for the team I would imagine. Nylander has to clear waivers if we want to send him back down. That adds a wrinkle too.

Maybe a trade? Holmberg or Robertson for say Frost or Acciari? Bjugstad? Gourde?

I think they signed Nylander just for this. He'll come up maybe. If he gets waivers and claimed, then good for him

What's up with Knies? I assume he has a concussion. When is he back? I'm guessing the NHL brain trust didn't overrule the idiots who decided it was a "legal" hit. They would never throw their people under the bus even if they made an error in judgement.

While it sucks with so many injuries, some silver linings:
1. Leafs playing well as a team and a good system forming
2. Better opportunity to assess talent/depth
3. Cap accumulation for trade deadline ? This one I’m not sure, but wondering about. Is this true ?

Definitely not accruing cap space, we're dipping well into LTIR.

I see, so it’s doing the opposite?
