SDS

Why do you say that?

Let’s eat Grandma! I opted for the semicolon instead.

The reason why I ask this is that it reveals a lot IMO. It basically says that everyone loves bringing in expertise as long as that expertise agrees with their personal assessment. Terry - get the hell out of the way you don’t know what you’re doing. Me - I know exactly what I’m doing.

And what if he doesn’t? Is the new guy a bum or is Nightingale acceptable?

So we will probably leave this open for a couple of weeks to discuss the hiring, but I don’t want this to become a catchall thread for everything that he does. It’s more interesting to have those discussions broken out and not buried into an ever-changing mega thread.

They = United States. Europe does something vastly different. ADR is much more common and much more preferred than fusion.

So here’s an example of a herniation impinging upon the spinal cord. If you look at the vertebrae opposite the yellow arrow you can see that jelly on the back of my spine encroaching into the white area which is my spinal cord.

I was describing a cumulative training overuse condition. He left Mike when he left Boston. I have no idea how he trains now.

Ha. I keep writing disc because I’m not sure which one and I don’t care to look it up.

He’s probably too young for wear and tear on the neck. His trainer was Mike Boyle who I follow extensively. I would not have expected him to have Jack in dangerous training situations. He is a gym zealot about safety and avoiding exercises that lead to injury. it is also possible it was bothering him and the cross check made it worse.

Seattle’s entry just makes adding players that much harder. Teams are losing almost a player for team in NHL tab and now the task is to replace that and then go get even more. I would much rather see league contraction to 28 teams than an expansion to 32.

I feel like encouraging him to shoot is not a positive development.

So there’s fusion and there’s artificial disc replacement. Europe is 20 years ahead of us in ADR. Fusion causes adjacent disc disease in that the movement that was supposed to happen in the fused disc joint is now disbursed to the adjacent discs and that causes those discs to deteriorate faster and you end up getting your whole spine fused as time goes on. There was a special disc I wanted and that’s why I was willing to fly to Germany to get it done. it all depends on Jack’s anatomy. But if the herniation was causing a deterioration in his game and he had pain then more than likely it was pressing against his spinal cord. From the time of herniation there’s a certain amount of time where your body will attack the herniation and try to break it down if it’s large enough. That may be why he was waiting. Just checking to see if it was getting smaller over time. my left arm was 33% weaker after the herniation start impinging upon my spinal cord.

A herniated disc in his neck is nothing to laugh at. I have them. A massive one in fact where my left arm went numb. I was in the process of scheduling a flight to Germany to get an artificial disc replacement last March when the world shut down. thankfully, there is this weird phenomenon that the larger the herniation the more likely it is resorbed into the body. The numbness in my arm has gone away and my strength has returned but I feel like I’m on a hair trigger with it.

What do you know about how freely this occurred? I’m fairly certain everyone in the NHL knows the ramifications involved. Do you think he was confused when this was negotiated? Or that maybe Googled the wrong acronym?

Can you imagine a world where obtaining a player only costs you money and if they don’t work out you get assets in return? I believe John Lennon asked this very question once… I know that was supposed to be funny, but that was incredibly awful. I would have expected better from him.

What exactly is the issue here? We signed a guy, it didn’t work out, and we got a second round pick for him. Terry’s money and our time were the only things that were wasted. Skinner probably thought the same thing.

It is. 🤷🏻

I would guess the chances seem to be about one in four.

That doesn’t sound good at all. 😬LOL

It was purely a joke. No serious thought was put into it.

At this point it would be consecutive games.

We just flipped a fourth line left winger for a second round draft choice.
