They initially thought it was something that could be treated with rest and rehab. They rested it. They rehabbed it. They set a deadline and it wasn't better so now they're trying surgery. Sounds pretty cut and dry to me. So they misdiagnosed it? I don't think there's any confusion. The medical staf cleared a player that should have been shut down.

Rick Blight Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 2 minutes ago, Alflives said: I read that too. Why didn't the medical staff know the surgery would have this consequence? Why did they keep trying to rehab, when clearly there was no chance for that to work? I accept doctors make mistakes, and that's likely what happened here. You do know they are talking about the surgery he had in January last year in Sweden, right? It is also why he was shut down so early by the Canucks' medical people to have it properly repaired. This is a Granlund thread though so let's leave it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the medical staff were well aware of it. Seems like they gave him some bad advice. Could be true. I would just assume he didnt talk about it much. Cant see them knowingly ruin the guy for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the good thing I guess. I would have liked to see him add some more upper body strength over the summer though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think we were genuinely considering exposing him to expansion earlier in the season... he clearly is a wimp i think we should approach the flames about their interest in trading him for shinkaruk edit: i guess i should add the emoticon in case someone gets the wrong idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's a Granlund thread, but considering our medical staff allowed Granlund to play with this wrist injury for so very long, the question of our medical staff's competency is relevant. As a result, Rodin's injury history is also relevant. Why was Granlund not shut down and fixed three months ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just really want Granlund to be fully healed and up to top speed in October. The guy really played great this season. I wonder what he can do when healthy, and not playing in pain?

I wrote a lengthier response that seems to have disappeared during the thread merger but basically I said it's doubtful they misdiagnosed it, and likely they tried the least intrusive treatments possible before committing to surgery.

I'm not saying Markus is better than Mikael (because, duh) but from what I've seen, Markus has the potential to kick it up a notch with the right training and line mates.
