Nucker67 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 The team is just going to have to play super disciplined and rally around DeSmith. They can do this if every player pulls their weight. I suspect next season they'll re-sign DeSmith, as Demko might not be trusted to stay healthy. Can't throw Silovs to the wolves for a long stretch. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Crossbar Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 2 minutes ago, aGENT said: That's great. My bigger concern is him not listening to his body. Him sitting a few games initially might have saved having him out for weeks. Might have also saved this "new" injury. It might have been a lot of things. We don't know yet.

Snoop Hogg Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 (edited) Unfortunately, I missed game 1 as I was at my best friend’s birthday party, but it looks like we won and played well. Demko being out is a concern, if it’s long term. Should still be able to win this series though and hopefully Demko is back for round 2.

Elias Pettersson Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 1 minute ago, Canuck You said: Yepp, Almost starting to sound like damaged goods now. He had that double groin surgery early on to gain more flexibility. The he had the concussions. Then another groin, a knee, who knows what the problem is now. Didn't he get hit with the puck in the mask at least twice? That's how he got concussed both times. One time it was so bad he couldn't even fly. I think he was out 2 months for that concussion... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Dog Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 If the top 6 shows up offensively then the Demko injury won’t be a problem for this series. This team has shown capable of outscoring problems and overwhelming teams offensively. They might have to do that again if they want to take the series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
