When he is not injured due to a game he got injure by a random puck in the face, Leclaire is really an unlucky one.

So it seems. That man cannot catch a break. Or a puck for that matter.

Brian Elliot gets to run with the ball. There may not be a job for Leclaire if/when he comes back.

Rypien is the best pound-for-pound fighter in the league

Tim Thomas might have broken his hand when he smashed it against a wall after the loss to Pittsburgh

Is that what they're saying it is? They've been quiet about what his injury was and kept him in as Rask's backup.

No official word. But I wouldn't expect them to say it happened after that game when something infact is broken.

Milan Lucic is going back on the injured reserve for four weeks with an ankle sprain. Is comeback doesn't last too long.

Is this gonna be the story of his career? Constantly injured or is it just a phase...?

Giguere with a 28 save SO against the Hawks, that gives him a 3 game win streak. Good for him. I hope he can keep it up and nail that no. 1 job. Giguere's a huge favourite in Anaheim.

Ales Hemsky's season is over cause of shoulder injury, not a real surprise...

Not really a surprise he's been hit from behind too. At least it wasn't a head shot but still another hit from behind that injure someone.

I think it's Kaleta from Buffalo who make a really dirty hit on a player from the Flyers yesterday, you can see on the replay that he really wasn't interest by the puck and just want to destroy the guy. I'm sure their will be suspension, but another 2-3 games i'm sure.....

Post by **Jypfan92** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 3:02 pm

I mean that he has played only one over 80 game season and this season was his 7th. He have had lots of little injuries, but this is his first big injury.

Post by **philou21** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 3:20 pm

I know what you mean, I just decide to write this too. Hemsky is another player who's got a great talent but is always injured, that sucks. This guy got awesome hands!

He must be awesome because whenever I try to trade for him in EHM the Oilers tell me he's untouchable.

Am I the only one who compares players' skills when watching them on the ice to their attribute ratings on EHM? I remember watching a game on TV once with my father, and he said: "Look at this guy (Marchand).. what a great stick move!". And I said: "That move was quite accidentally. I know that for sure.. his flair and creativity are only about 10."

I pass so much time on this game that sometimes it's happen to me too to think at EHM when i see a player, but you know i'm not sure it's a good thing.

gibson41 · Post by **gibson41** » Sat Nov 28, 2009 5:12 pm

I base my views on players purely on EHM attributes, because I watch a very few games of TV schedule here, since most of them are aired in the middle of the night, so it's hard for me :-/. It's definitely not a good thing, and I always end up surprised/confused with player's real life performance.

True story.

This was just terrible. Sure, Marc Savard's return will make more of a difference on the scoreboard but Lucic is a vital part of this team and his physical play helps set the tempo for the team and really gets the guys going. He's going to be missed!
