Wyldnwoody44 Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 Ok, since there are some minor and some more serious injuries, I figure I would make a thread devoted to sabres injuries... I don't make threads hardly ever, but thought it would be nice to have one thread to go to instead of searching GDT and others to find out...... With that said, have at it.

LGR4GM Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 Tropp and Foligno are injured... Rolston was supposed to know more today but since the team didn't practice I would expect that the update for that may occur tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try to take the lead as much as possible, but working 60-70 hrs a week and being on call makes it tough for me to stay in the loop, all this responsibility, I may crack under the SS pressure ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 @Nichols_NHLPool Corey Tropp of the #Sabres has a broken jaw from the fight in the #Leafs game. Out indefinitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robviously Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 @Nichols_NHLPool Corey Tropp of the #Sabres has a broken jaw from the fight in the #Leafs game. Out indefinitely. Harrington said 5-6 weeks on twitter. There has to be a concussion in there too though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 so broken jaw is what 8-10weeks I would guess and more if it requires surgery? Guess Tropp won't be playing til Christmas... uhg and I really like him too. (I should clarify 8-10 weeks is from now til he can play again. Even if it heals in 5-6, he will need to get his conditioning back up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spndnchz Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I wonder if his jaw was broke by the punch or the forearm shiver. My guess is the forearm. Being out on the ice, all relaxed, no clenching of his teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weave Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 Tropp was out cold, right? Isn't that pretty much a solid indicator of a concussion? Maybe he is symptom free now but I don't see how he didn't sustain at least a minor concussion if he was out cold, even momentarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I'm sure he would be off the ice for a week or two but couldn't he keep his conditioning up while it heals? I can't remember what happened with Crosby when his jaw was broken last year. Any word on Foligno? I heard he was skating but did they say anything about the severity of the injury? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could also be they're assuming the jaw takes longer to heal than the concussion, so they're only reporting that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could also be they're assuming the jaw takes longer to heal than the concussion, so they're only reporting that. One of the beat writers tweeted that Tropp had passed his baseline test, which means that he mos def had a concussion (pretty sure a loss of consciousness following a blow to the head is, by definition, a concussion). So it's the jaw not the concussion that's the issue going forward, apparently. Can't he skate with a broken jaw? I mean I'm sure he would be off the ice for a week or two but couldn't he keep his conditioning up while it heals? I can't remember what happened with Crosby when his jaw was broken last year. Yeah. But he can't eat and can't actually, you know, play hockey. Crosby did come back rather quickly with the playoffs on the horizon. I'm not sure how effective he was or how his game was affected by the injury. Any word on Foligno? I heard he was skating but did they say anything about the severity of the injury? Hamilton tweeted that Foligno strained something (lower body, I infer) and is targeting the opener for a return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does taking a shot to the noggin that turns the lights out not result in a concussion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I was thinking along the same lines. How does taking a shot to the noggin that turns the lights out not result in a concussion? I'm pretty sure you can be knocked out without having a concussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjag Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'm pretty sure you can be knocked out without having a concussion. So I googled it. See a lot of articles that disagree with this. The ones I read suggest there are varying degrees, but a KO = concussion. Probably are articles out there that refute this as well. Hence the problem with medical information and the internet I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Aud Smell Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'm pretty sure you can be knocked out without having a concussion. that may be true, actually. but as jag indicates, there is a lot of uncertainty in this area. i'd read somewhere more recently that "concussions" of the brain occur in dozens of situations previously though benign, such as slamming your head into the bottom of a desktop when you bend down to pick up something. in any case, tropp reportedly passed his baseline test, so there's no concussion concern at this time (reportedly). as i understand it, athletes get a baseline test when they're feeling fine and dandy and then take the exam again after an incident like the one tropp had.
