He has a high ankle sprain. More than likely, even after 10 weeks, it's still going to be an issue. He'll be able to play, but I'm sure it's going to hamper him for quite some time if not the rest of the season. Having a guy that can take some of the pressure off wouldn't be a bad thing.

I understand that but he doesn't want to bring a 4 mill goalie in to be a backup. I can't see his ankle healing 100% even after 10 weeks IMO. There was a little talk of Ray Emery but he signed with the Kings farm team yesterday.

I know that, that's why I said the Kings farm team.

It would have been better off if he broke it honestly.

I was going to say that, but figured someone would say I was crazy and decided I didn't feel like hearing it.

Less damage with breaks. Ankles and wrist sprains are 99% of the time worse than breaks.

Oh, I know. I sprained my ankle about 6 years ago. Once in a while, I still have issues with it, though I'm pretty lucky because most people say their ankle never feels the same afterwards.

A family member of mine had a really bad sprain probably about 10 years ago now. I'm pretty sure she was on crutches for it for close to 6 months. The Dr told her she would have been much better off if she'd broken it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Miller miss time when he was here with a high ankle sprain?

March of 09 missed 13 games for left ankle.

We got a healthy dose of LaLemon.

I thought the ankle sprain was in 11, when Enroth got them to the playoffs.

EDIT: that was the collarbone injury.

So what you're saying is we lost about 11 of those 13 games?

Watching hockey while working. I could get used to this!

Any new rumors on the Sabres in search of a goalie?

Interesting philosophy, I guess:

How is a line supposed to gain chemistry. If anything history has shown that one person can make or break a line, why keep changing?

Might be a boom or bust week for me in HBSL (lost by 10 points in week 1). My opponent and I only have about 5 or 6 of the same guys. He has a busy Wednesday though and I only have 2 players that day (both of which are guys we have the same).

I took both "generational talents", Kessel, Jagr and Toffoli as my standout guys.

Andrew MacDonald can play goal and is available for literally nothing!

I have 3 of the same people as my opponent. Tarasenko, Kucherov, and Ekblad. It's probably because most of the guys he took only have 3 games and mine have 4.

right but this case you'd change it even if it was working. Admittedly still flirting with the line there but not enough to get you put into arkham asylum.


Edit: What am saying, that quote would be the exact opposite
