Injury Report: The Injury Thread || Stolarz out 4-6 weeks || McCabe on IR

[Evilhomer]

Wasn't McCabe already out a couple games this season because of a concussion (puck to the head)? Yikes. Repeated concussions are no joke.

Agreed, that they aren't a joke at all, but the way McCabe left the ice in that game makes me think (with all my vast medical knowledge, of course) that maybe it looked worse than it was.

I thought Berube's comments were pretty encouraging big picture. Not on the ice yet, but sounded like he's doing okay relatively speaking.

He’s Dubas’ best roster addition. You could argue Knies, but we know he was going to trade him for Fleury, so hard to give him credit there lol.

Not even the best defenceman he acquired, or the best addition at that year's trade deadline.

What did he say?

What did he say?

Is there an approximate timeline available for Jake McCabe’s injury?

Berube: Not really. You have to go day-to-day here. He has to get back on the ice, and then we will go from there. That is the best way I can put it. And I am not sure when that will be.

Thanks. That doesn't sound encouraging.

Thanks. That doesn't sound encouraging.

I’ve already assumed weeks, sounded better than months.

No idea how they determine that.
I imagine he’s being assessed daily.
Earliest he could come back is against Dallas next week I believe

McCabe back on the ice already is encouraging. Berube said "he feels good and he's doing well". Doesn't sound like a severe concussion if he's back skating already, which is the best case given how it looked
