Michael Pachla: Injuries equal tough sledding, a change of style and opportunity

Michael Pachla: Injuries equal tough sledding, a change of style and opportunity

Great blog. Don't even need to read it to know that

It is really tough watching this team with the current injuries. Hopefully the players heal soon and the second half of the season is more enjoyable.

Injuries are just excuses...

Am I doing this right?

Number one reason why am scared about Jack right now he could say he's fine
Then boom Re-injured Then he could be playing at 75% the rest of his career

And will be playing that what "if" game for his. Career

From the previous blog...

Junior its a high ankle sprain, not a torn MCL or ACL...

Can I take over dramatic for $200 please?

Not for this team. It's more of a lack of talent from what I see and guys taking it upon them selves to make plays where there are none.

I don't think you understand how severe a high ankle sprain

It just shows the lack of Depth in the Organization

I don't think you do. It was a low-mid grade high ankle sprain. From the original time it happened: (6-8 weeks reported)

"Historically that's what they've been. I guess some guys have come back after four (weeks) or so, but we can't count on that and we can't sit here and wait for four weeks to come and think it's all going to get better," Murray said during the season opener against the Montreal Canadiens at KeyBank Center. "We have to prepare. You know me, glass half-empty, prepare long term, and anything that is better than that is a bonus."

He is at what 5 weeks.

dose of optimism:
I enjoy watching our young guys come up from Rochester and show us what theyve got.

4 - 2 Blues

Reinhart and Risto

Tough stretch we are headed into with a severely depleted roster.

It just shows the lack of Depth in the Organization

No, no it doesnt.

Again
Take the top two centers out on every team.
Take the starting goalie out for a game or two.
Sprinkle in a long term injury to two top 6 wingers
Sprinkle in injuries to two-three top 6 d-men

How about the people that come back too soon ? And it's happened two of our own players and they missed the whole Year

there's talent in the organization, but murray and co. are not going to rush things...

think of the sabres as having a high ankle sprain...they could rush the youngins, just like jack could be in a rush to get back on the ice...but they're not going to do it for short-term gain

No, no it doesnt.

100% agree. We can't seriously evaluate this team until 95% of the day 1 projected starting line-up is on the ice.

Nope he is going to be rushed back and play at 75% for the rest of his career...

It's an ankle sprain not a severe concussion or MCL injury...

Stamkos broke his leg, it was nasty it took him a season to get fully healthy and that was a multiple fracture break. But an ankle sprain...oh god his career could be in jeopardy...

Since I could never ever be a Ranger fan I was wondering if the other New York team will take me in. As I am done with my team until the coach and GM are gone

Who??

Lehners was not a mild grade sprain it was as high of a grade sprain as you could get, and HE'S A GOALIE.

90 percent of a person’s body weight is supported by the tibia, the high-ankle sprain is much harder to heal than its low-ankle counterpart.

You must of forgot now he's trash now you want him off the team

dose of pessimism: we have an 8 game winless streak against the blues (0-7-1) per sabres.com

No, no it doesnt.

What's the problem with this team? Scoring

What did Ennis, Bogo, Kulikov do in terms of scoring when they played? A whopping 3 points between them?

Eichel is huge, O'Reilly has played most of the year. We are still 30th in goals. Not 25th, not 18th, 30th. This teams got problems yo
