I'm reminded of a similar injury to Skinner some years ago.  He looked to be done for the season but was back the next game.

That said, I think Muel may need some time off; all injuries are different.

And proceeded to be a shell of himself in production for about 2 years. 

Hope it's not like that at all

True.  The good news is Skinner is effective because of his skating and playing a skilled fast game.

Maybe silver lining is Mule is not known for his speed at all but more using his size, strength and positioning to be an effective player. 

Let's hope we can get him back sooner than later with no long-term impacts.

He's also way younger when it's way easier to heal up proficiently

and so the wait continues.

That doesn't sound good.  I'm sure there are MRIs in Seattle.

It could be as easy as wanting to give the inflammation a chance to subside before having the MRI.  
 

Also the Sabres Team Docs do not travel with the team. Perhaps the MRI is done, but they want the Team’s Orthopedic Surgeon to do a physical exam on Him to make the final determination about how long Samuelsson is out 
 

 

I imagine both the exam and the MRI will happen Wednesday Afternoon

We should all be very happy that it is not a season ending it as it looked on TV.  Even if it is a couple months, it is great news. Anything sooner it’s just gravy

Geez, you guys need to be more positive

Why bother with something local if it doesn’t seem imminent?  I’m sure their doctors would prefer their own facilities.

Few weeks, while bad timing as we are just getting the season going, is a digestible time frame so long as more injuries don't pile up 

[Thorny]

On another note I thought the Seattle game was tonight 😒

[matter2003]

That's good news and probably about the best we could have hoped for.

 

Any timeline on Joker? We don't even know what happened to him

Pretty safe to say it's "broken bones in face"

C'mon, you know Seattle is outside the PSE Healthcare network. They can't afford those co-pays.

 

[JoeSchmoe]

I wonder if the delay is you can't get an MRI in Canada unless you wait months on end. Should have sent him directly to Seattle.

I mean, put a shield on and lace up the skates. What's the issue?? 🤔

I suppose it depends on which bones are broken and where.  Broken eye socket?  You might wanna let that heal a bit.

If someone is having serious jaw work done it's difficult to consume the type of diet conducive to playing the high paced and physical NHL game. He's probably eating through a straw right now. Not to mention the amount your face moves without you really noticing when doing something physical, not to mention while sustaining physical contact..I'd imagine the pain would be extreme. All someone in this case needs to do is look at the video, and imagine that happening to themselves, to know how long that would hurt for.

As to Mule, him being out a month is bad, but considering the way the injury looked he, the team and the fans, should be very relieved that he is only out a month.  He's had pretty rotten luck on the injury front the last two seasons.

As to Joki, hope he take his time and allows those bones to heal and set properly.

Quoting you because you mentioned Joki.  I’m generally high on Joki as a top four D.  I don’t think he’s replacement level. But we will find out soon enough if there’s a dip while he’s out of the lineup. I’m guessing missing both will be noticeable. Mule missing weeks instead of months is a huge relief.

Joker you know what you have to do.😀
