When my sister-in-law was in pre-med, I guess that was the running joke whenever Lupus was talked about. I haven't watched enough episodes of the show to notice, but apparently it has never been an actual diagnosis.

It was once "I finally have a case of lupus!"

It's a different type of injury for a forward than it is for a goalie.

Goalie skates stop at the ankle...

Player skates do not...

You cannot compare a goalie injury to a player injury unless its a concussion.

Correct.

Until we know, we just have to sit and wait and be sad.

I believe recovery time is 6-8 weeks if it is a High sprain.

Correct, as far as I know.

And wait, pre-med is actually a thing in the US? (In Canada there's no actual pre-med designation, and anybody who claims to be pre-med is usually just gen sci)

Okay... Say best case scenario Eichel comes back in 7 weeks. So around early December. That type of injury you're not going to be able to be as quick and shifty when you get back anyway. So if he comes back then and is a 75% player that really does us no good either.

I also go back to last year's Eastern Conference Finals where Ben Bishop was screaming and rolling around as if he got shot by a sniper perched above the press box. He was the backup later in the series.

A. "I didn't get your email."

B. "What would you consult an eyedoctor for an ankle injury?"

Both are pretty weak tea.

All I know is it's an undergraduate program. My sister-in-law stopped pursuing it after she married my brother, so I don't know too much of the specifics.
