-Vintage Canuck- Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Quote Canucks forward Anton Rodin underwent successful surgery today in Cleveland to repair his knee. A approximate timeline of 6 months is expected for recovery. "After a period of rest, rehabilitation and follow up consults, our medical staff, Anton and Dr. Miniaci decided that surgery offered the most definitive means to address the health of his knee," said Vancouver Canucks General Manager Jim Benning. "This has been a difficult process for Anton but he is determined to make a complete recovery and has our full support." https://www.nhl.com/canucks/news/anton-rodin-surgery/c-286524728 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aGENT Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Wonder if we see him back here next year. Boeser vs Rodin - the showdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sygvard Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 You have to think that this has a high likelyhood of brick-walling his chances to play for us, perhaps ever. It's a shame. Like a lot of people, I was excited to see him. I really feel for the guy, and I hope that he heals quickly. But I am not optimistic about his continuing NHL career.

Nucker 67 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 After all the hype, consoling and patience by management - he better be incredible when he gets healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroCanuck Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Hopefully he signs a two way contract with the Canucks. Allows him to play in Utica to get his feet back under him until he's ready to try the big show again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoosh Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 As much as I had hoped to see him again later this year, it was probably a good thing to get it done now and start the rehab as soon as possible. He'll be back in form for next year. I would have wanted to really see what he can do, but it'll have to wait for now.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhdlois Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Poor guy it was just a freak accident. Hopefully he will recover and have a bright career ahead of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Of course we finally get a promising prospect look like he could make an impact for us and he gets injured. I'm thinking that's the last we see of him. If he doesn't leave for Europe, we should have alot more right wing depth next year to make it tougher for him to land a spot.

Well it could be a blessing for him. 6 months = he has almost 2 months to get in shape for next year. More, if he ends up ahead of schedule. Who did the surgery on his knee the first time? I don't know, but this time around he's got top shelf doctors/care at his disposal so I'll assume if something wasn't done correctly, it will be this time. He just turned 26 so it's not like he's old and falling apart. If I were him I'd probably be relieved. Now he can just focus on healing and giving it another shot next year with (hopefully) a 100% rebuilt and healthy leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt they move Hansen. Burr I'd say 50/50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before this surgery I was wondering who did the first one as he was having a difficult time recovering. Let's hope it's done right this time and he goes on to have a good career.

Beary Sweet Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Hope he recovers well and comes back stronger than ever next season. I'm sure Benning will lock him up to a multi year deal this time hopefully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John McClane Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 You could see this coming. Hopefully this surgery can clean up the knee once and for all. Realy hope he gets another shot next year. Good luck AR. I'm praying for ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
