Boy thats really rolling the dice, I wish for once they would err on the side of caution. At the very least hold him out to Monday.

Timeframe seems too specific for a concussion. It could be anything above the waist.

Never trust the Flyers with accurate reports. Remember Vinny was day to day with back spasms. Then, all of the sudden he's out 4-6 weeks with a broken back.

Read also missed time with an injury no one knew about.

Edit: I hope it's not something lingering from Downey's earlier head/facial injury.

If the playoffs started today, we'd play the Pens in the first round

Sorry, I'm home sick with a high fever & strep throat. Missing a fun gathering of local alcoholics.

I'd prefer his debut come at the start of the 2015 season but if he shows he's earned next year I am fine with it.

Im pretty sure we'd play the Caps. The 2nd and 3rd place teams in each division play each other in the 1st round
