akm Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 What would you expect? This was literally the worst case scenario that got unleashed 24 hours before the opener. Talk about deflating. Doesn't make someone soft to be ultra disappointed that the thing they were most looking forward to seeing (electrifying eichel goals) is off the table.

Randall Flagg Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Soft.We'll move on without them, just like ROR and Risto and Reinhart will forge onward without Jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlueGED Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Softest bunch of posters I've ever seen. It's easy to pretend you're tough when you spend your nights with Lehner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlueGED Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Analytics soft. Actually, Jack's analytics (if by analytics you mean Corsi and derivatives) were pretty awful. So it's appropriate :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Okay, this comes from someone ik who knows a trainer, claimed this trainer said 4-6weeks probably closer to 6. I have no idea how reliable it is. But I wanted to pass it along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlueGED Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I had a high ankle sprain a couple years back and it took about 6 months for me to be able to do whatever I wanted without tweaking it. The ~6 weeks sounds about right for when I was able to run and whatnot again, but the full stability took much longer, and had to be careful on it. Obviously I was nowhere near the athlete Jack is, nor was I getting the kitchen sink of treatment he'll get. Just thought I'd pass it along.

beerme1 Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Just think of all the housework Reinhart is going to have to do with Eichel injured. That house is going to be a mess. Now you show a sense of humor? Now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerme1 Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I'm still half expecting Bylsma to keep Reinhart at wing and just slide Girgensons up (once O'Reilly is back, anyway). Hope to be wrong on that. I actually think that is not the right thing to do. Sammy's been playing and practicing at wing. I don't want him trying to figure how to paly C in the NHL all of a sudden when game 1 is on us. May not be prudent. Softest bunch of posters I've ever seen. Please don't put me in the pillow puff pile. I think Lehner carries the day first of all and he is probably ready for this more than anyone else on the team. We have enough talent to get us through I think. Yes we need some bounces but what team doesn't? This is a bad break to be sure. One that we will overcome.

qwksndmonster Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Reinhart is going to have to learn center at the NHL level sooner or later. Last year when O'Reilly went down was the perfect time. This is another shining opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallawaySabres Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 This will only sharpen the mental toughness of what is the building of a Stanley Cup Team. Players will rally when reality sets in and the journey begins tomorrow night. I have no doubt this team will be in the top 8 when Jack comes back and then the next level kicks in for these guys. I really think Lehner is going to be a beast in net while Ennis and Kane have great seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is another shining opportunity. You are learning grasshopper now the pebbles from my enclenched fist. :P Samson the Reinharted, God I hope you can play center as well as I think He will be better than you imagined. And this isn't a screw it tank move, when we win the Cup Samson will be at center. Might as well get started. Really? S n a t c h is blocked?

Huckleberry Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Ugh , so no Eichel, O'Reilly or Okposo on first game, This will be an epic win :D Watch this team win games with Stellar D and Vezina goaltending :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
