Then maybe a guy like Lazar - he’s been alright but not what I was hoping. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird thing was, I could play hockey but baseball and basketball just killed me ... quickly ... had surgery within a year ... thank god!!! It’s much easier to skate on the ice with a partial ACL tear than running on the ground in football, soccer, baseball or basketball. They pressure on the knee isn’t as great and a lot of times you can just glide on the ice. I can’t think of too many soccer players that would even play with a partial ACL tear. I mean you are constantly running up and down the field. Mikheyev said he was wearing a brace, so that obviously helped him. It’s easy to wear a brace under all of that equipment, nobody even noticed. Can’t wear a brace if you are playing soccer or other sports as your range of motion would be severely limited. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big thing is we don't know the extent of the first injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s had Tanev level injury history and that might be another contract that eventually ends up on LTIR permanently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petey and the Russians could be one of the top lines in the league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want our GM to be pissed at that. Don't mind that he's adversarial. Just get it done!!! 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elias Pettersson Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 23 minutes ago, DeNiro said: Isn’t that a slippery slope though? Like what kind of rules does the NHL have in place for when a player can decide to play and when they can’t? What if a player decides to play and it leads to a career ending injury? Is it all on them? Regardless of all that I don’t understand what the long term plan was. Have him play all season not at 100% until he might need surgery? If they planned on being a playoff team why not get the surgery done right away so he could be back for the stretch drive? The odds of having a career ending injury playing with a partial tear with a knee brace on is quite low. We aren’t talking about a head injury here or broken bones that need healing. Also, if he had the surgery in September he would have missed the entire season. It’s an 8-9 month injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A call-up would be warranted. Now that Podkolzin is over the shock and displeasure of being demoted, he could get a look soon too. Karlsson and Hoglander both very talented, whether they're structured enough is anyone's guess. We should have scouts for that. It is difficult to judge the AHL because the schedule is so stop and go. Didn't he kinda break out once and then cooled off and got scratched ?

Mikheyev was asked if he was having surgery in Vancouver. He said no. He must be going down to the US. I think the top ACL surgeon is somewhere back east. I forget his name.

It was really weird and deceiving psychologically and physically. My knee could handle the soft pivots and pushes on ice but not the hard pounding and abrupt pivots on the court. I was fine on the ice, sort of, it just took longer to present. On the field or court, my knee would pop out of place. My team mate would literally pop it back into place and I'd keep playing. On the ice, it was fine ... I had more control over the injury. Edited January 28, 2023 by Dr. Crossbar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cluminati* Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Well this was a fitting way to shut it down for the season. Speedy recovery Ilya! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
