Sure, but the guy has played 16 games in almost two years. That's next level, career-threatening bad.

Didn't know about the torn ACL.

Let’s think about this for a minute.....Arizona is dominating us.....playoffs

“On Jan 2nd, 1991 the reigning Stanley Cup Champion Edmonton Oilers lost 3-0 to Montreal to drop to 18-18-2.
Oilers went to 3rd round of playoffs that year.
Edmonton currently sits with an 18-18-3 record.”

This team isn’t acting a a team who has lost 6 straight and on the verge of missing the playoffs....let’s see Bob put a positive spin on that 1st period.....”Oh Spooner almost scored”.....I think Puju had 3 minutes of ice time
