Phat Fingers Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 15 hours ago, ruilin96 said: My take on this is that if a doctor can has suspect of this injury from video play, I trust the Canucks team doctor would properly evaluate him and run test and reports for this injury as well. From the sound of it, even if he is injured that way, he can still be properly healed if treated properly. I also trust the team doctors to do what's right for him. It is more important for him to heal up 100% all aspect than rush him back. A Chiropractor is not a Medical Doctor. No Chiropractor I have ever heard of unless they have taken an MD program and graduated with a MD is a qualified medical doctor. This Dr the province found under a rock sounds really important, but he does not have any medical training in acute care, neurology, orthopaedics or internal medicine. He might be as qualified to make a diagnosis via video as a homeopath is to prescribe ‘non’ medication. I go to my chiropractor to get adjusted. Not for medical advice. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is clearly not a very good doctor. Doctors shouldn't tell patients they have cancer before they know themselves. Just further proof why the Canucks are covered by the worst media in pro sports!

Echo Park Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I take it people don't know what a modern chiropractor does or what schooling they get. Take 5-10 minutes and research. I'm not saying that it was right to comment on the play or for The Province for allowing the article to go to print. Just addressing that not all chiropractors conform to the stereotype that is out there. As for EP, thrilled to see that he's back on the ice already. That can only be a good sign. A full and rapid recovery would be amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a little excerpt: When Dr. Stefan Sigalet viewed the replay of a hit that left Elias Pettersson with a concussion last Saturday in Sunrise, Fla., he saw more than the head of the Vancouver Canucks’ prized rookie striking the ice. He saw reason for additional concern. “He definitely has a concussion and probably has whiplash and has probably injured his left shoulder,” said Sigalet, a founding practitioner of the Burnaby-based Catalyst Kinetics Group and consulting chiropractor for players in the NHL, CFL, Rugby Canada, MLS and Canadian Olympians. Haha, just saw the tweet of alien on the ice with the skills coach. Doesn’t look like anywhere else is injured my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just1CupB4IDie Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I'm surprised he doesn't have a shoulder injury... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richado Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 On the CBC panel, Kyprios just said Pettersson is feeling good and wants to play asap. He then used some weird logic to say we probably won't start him back on the road (why?), and look for him to play next Saturday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Skylit Drive Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 (edited) Has anyone thought about trading for his brother Emil? Probably could swap him for Granlund or Leipsic hell maybe even Gaunce. He was a AHL all star last year so maybe he just needs a new organization that isn’t that skilled to fully be in the NHL Edited October 21, 2018 by A Skylit Drive Forgot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if we trade for him, he doesn't pan out, and we end up moving on? That might piss Elias off. Just sayin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are obviously some exceptions, but there are a lot of instances where the other brother ends up more of a fringe NHLer. I remember when we were hoping Steve Kariya would amount to something. He didn't, at least not to the point of sticking in the NHL. lol Edited October 21, 2018 by The Lock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many on CDC still thinks Valeri Bure wasn't a good player, even though he was an all-star one year and racked up 400 points in the NHL. The Staals are a recent example of most brothers being pretty good... Eric, Jordan, Marc.... and then there's Jared. Drafting or acquiring siblings isn't a bad idea in theory. Good NHL players are where they are at due to their physical ability, intelligence, and drive.... both nature and nurture. So when you have a sibling player who share nearly identical genetics and raised in a nearly identical environment... chances for success should be pretty high. When you go through the rosters of NHL players, most seems to have familiar connection to someone else currently or from the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A full and rapid recovery would be amazing! Chiropractors are well trained in what they do. But beyond that there are some that really believe they are actual medical doctors, just because they get to put the Dr next to their name. IMO they have as much right to the Dr designation as a physiotherapist or osteopath does. They are all about equally trained. Part of being trained and educated is about knowing what you don’t know or commenting on things that you are not qualified to do. Simply put, the ‘doctor’ is no more qualified than Pratt is to diagnose a concussion. My window into health care gives me enormous respect for emergency room physicians and internal medicine physicians, cardiologists, surgeons, anesthesiologists and specialists. I have watched as these doctors save lives or do everything possible to save a life. Having someone who isn’t qualified trying to fill their shoes for attention bothers me. Not to say that the person in question isn’t good at his profession, just that maybe he should stick to his profession. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
