That type of character and resilience however definitely won’t go unnoticed. He’s had a lot of issues with injuries over the years, I can totally see why he’d be emotional. He has major surgery a couple seasons ago that made him miss majority of the season. It’s no wonder he’s eager to play, he probably feels like he has to prove himself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now with the team tanking, there's no point in playing through it Tank in full effect. Horvat is likely traded after the all-star game. Maybe one of Brock or Garland too? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustard Tiger Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 58 minutes ago, jyu said: Although I have come to terms with trading Horvat, I really think the management botched this decision between Miller and Horvat. EP-Horvat is one two punch for the next 5-8 years. They will each give you 30 goals per season. Add a center next draft to join and make impact in a couple of years and we look good down the middle with succession occurring when Horvat ages out. Then we just need to focus on upgrading RD to round out the roster. Now we gotta fill C and RD. Not going to be easy. C and D? Buddy we need 16 players not just 2.

I'm not suggesting we need 2 players: we have quite a bit of vacancies in C and RD. With Horvat gone, we need a 2C as well as already vacant 3C. And, ideally we would need an upgrade on 4C as well. RD depth is Myers-Bear at the moment assuming Schenn is traded. We need to add at least two top4 RD. LW and RW depth is decent as it is. So likely 4-5 new players. Most people see this team having some good players to win against mid-bottom teams but not enough to beat the top teams. Definitely far from being a playoff team, let alone cup contender, with the number of holes it has on important positions. I'd say you are in the minority, a very select and special group of people, that see the team needing 16 new players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever consulted a medical professional regarding an ACL tear? In the War in Ukraine thread you predict imminent WW3 and you’re worried about a guys knee? Are you a troll or just attention seeiing? Seems to be an awful lot of whingeing about the team and their medical staff regarding Mik’s knee. Francis Ngannou recently won the UFC Heavyweight Championship with an MCL and ACL tear. It’s not the end of his career ffs.

Perhaps in their professional opinion a partial ACL tear does not mean the end of physical activity? Has anyone here had a partial MCL tear and can offer their insight? Was it a grade 1, 2 or 3 tear? sorry for so many ?s…I feel a bit Alfy Edited January 28, 2023 by Salacious Crumb acl not mcl 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfgang Durst Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 8 minutes ago, -Vintage Canuck- said: Steamer is one of the guys to blame for this f**king mess. I remember Steamer sitting next to Aquillini after Jim Benning was fired and Aquillini promising fans "to get this right". Steamer should have used all his influence to prevent Aquillini from hiring a coach (Bruce) which is not Aquillinis responsibility! Steamer should have told Aquillini that first thing is to get a new VP hockey ops on board. Anyway this franchise will be irrelevant for a very long time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Lasso Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Like others have mentioned, glad Mikheyev is taking care of his knee, and hopeful he makes a full recovery. Will moving him to LTIR give us cap space this year? or will he move to the other injured reserve, a la Pearson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
