Uh, yes considering several NHL players and countless doctors have said high ankle sprains linger for longer than 6 to 8 weeks. This will most likely be an injury that sticks around for most of the season. But im sure you knew that.

Even after that you still feel it and it hurts a lot it depends how much pain you can take

just one more question if you would....

is this still the issue with our franchise goalie or has the statute of limitations expired on him??
- Ripped Fuel

4 games = whole season

15/16 Penguins
2 points in their first 4 games
HOFer Sidney Crosby with 0 points

Obviously their season was done, right?

to be honest I don't think anybody believes he's the franchise goaltender we have one in the system that's going to come up

and #15 was back home REALLY ROOTING for the boys..
- Ripped Fuel

This is just stupid to say. You have no idea what Jack was doing at that point in time.

Don't be too concerned with that until we have played an equal amount of games as the ones above us . It's a math thing really .

I'm in engineering...I'm big on math.....

4 games ....3 points.... = 82 games. ...62 pts......

Good for 30th overall last year.

Book it

To be fair they have a more structural roster ..

There is no "to be fair"...it's judging how bad a team is based on 4 games. I'm not saying Buffalo is going to win the Cup, but it also shows 4 games in to a season is a stupid place to analyze what a team is going to do.

Because theyre in last place again??

THEY'RE NOT IN LAST PLACE!!!!

MOVE ON ALREADY!!!

Are we evaluting the trade or are we evaluating the overall improvement of the two respective franchises?

Because I know you're smart enough to know the answer, and these posts make me wonder if you're objective enough to concede it.
- Der Kaiser

And I know you are smart enough to realize JT Compher isn't in the NHL yet, and Zads was not last year either, but I'm wondering if your objective enough to concede that results from a year where 2/3 of the other half of the deal were not in the NHL isn't a fair comparison.

I think you're going to be right probably about last overall with the huge question marks in goaltending and on the defense and I don't like our forwards to be honest.

but those things can change maybe they all gel together and something magical happens

To small of a sample size to determine that . Like the leafs were projecting Matthews to get 410 goals this season after his first game.

But you're right

I'm going to have to assume that's the pic of Eichel and Reinhart with Halloween costumes on. I can't actually see it because I'm at work and Instagram isn't a site I have access to.

In any event, that proves NOTHING as to what he was doing while they were out west, since clearly it couldn't have taken place while they were there since Reinhart was on the trip and played all 3 games. So unless he's magical, he can't be in two places at once.

Try again...

If that's the best you have, I'm seriously disappointed.

so fries savior is hurt now..is going to be playing hurt when he gets back and may be suffering lingering affects for a long time to come...

Can anyone tell me when I can reasonably expect OUR #2 to be contributing in the same manner as Laine, Barkov, Nylander, Matthews???

A picture from the team Halloween party this past Saturday? I don't understand your point of how that shows Jack not caring about the team while he's injured?

I said maybe they gel together I'm not losing hope that it could happen like you said it's only four games in

Those crutches are merely a prop, he just doesn't want to play. I'm sure he's been on record in the past about how he's so burnt out playing hockey that he needs some extra time off.
