Alex the Great Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 @TSNBobMcKenzie: Bad day for injuries. CBJ's James Wisniewski broken foot, Andy McDonald left STL practice limping badly. MTL says Rene Bourque concussed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rink on Renfrew Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Why is Hossa not on the concussion list. I know it was stated as a non concussion, concussion but I'd bet he stayed on the ice longer than everyone of those players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanford Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I don't understand why some of you are still at arms for Hossa not being concussed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 This is what happens with no training camp and a compressed schedule. The league still hasn't actually addressed the problem either. It all comes down to the equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edlerberry Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Hockey Helmets should have one-time compressible foam that gets swapped out after every shift with a major collision, like motorcycle helmets. Also players should have neck protectors like race car drivers. Obviously neither of these things makes sense, so we just remove headshots and cross our fingers.

etsen3 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I can see pulled groins and other injuries of that nature a result of what you mentioned, but concussions? How does little preparation and playing constantly cause a guy to take a hit off the noggin'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Hopefully the Canucks don't add to that, this team clearly isn't dealing with injuries on defence very well. First game without Bieksa and we blow 8 goals up in our face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
higgyfan Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 With Bourque that puts the count to 10 concussions in 15 days. (Feb 11th - Feb 26th) Erik Johnson Rick Nash Jeff Skinner Lennart Petrell Brendan Gallagher Ryan Carter Vladimir Tarasenko Artem Anisimov Evgeni Malkin Rene Bourque Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 The fuss about concussions seems to have died down a bit since Crosby got back full time, but it's still a very real issue the league needs to address. I'm just thankful we haven't had any of our players concussed this year, though it's not an injury you'd wish on anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
