Gurn Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Weird- Toch had said Demko's injury was an upper body iirc, yet here he is talking about pushing off- which would be lower body stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the reports that came out was that it was his knee, the same one that had issues, but it was a "different" issue this time. Whatever that means. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever that means. That's what I heard, from when it happened, but a couple days back Rick said it was 'upper body' according to a game day thread. Guess I'm just mega suspicious of anything these guys say about injuries. They are so misleading, almost better they say nothing at all. I'm hoping, with gambling, and gambling "partners' so prevalent, that the league forces a league standard of reporting.- no more b.s. ing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Never heard the one reference to upper body, I always had heard knee. I mean, I've posted enough tweets. But continuing the reports of players playing through injuries (so long as Rick got it right ): 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6of1_halfdozenofother Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Waiting now for the team to start divulging who had what injury that each player played through during the playoffs. Especially Petey, who I suspect is nursing a groin injury of some sort in addition to perhaps an arm or shoulder injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His shot definitely wasn't the same but he wasn't scared to be physical so I doubt it was back or shoulder related. From my observations I'm guessing...

Petey wrist Hronek elbow Cole ankle Hughes shoulder I'm pretty sure Petey is nursing more than one injury. His reverse hits are probably hiding the fact that he's got a groin injury/sports hernia because he seemed slower moving up the ice than Brock was from a couple of years ago, and his stickhandling has hidden the fact that he can't seem to pivot and deke other players out. Hughes (as was mentioned by I think it was @MeanSeanBean in one of the other threads - probably the PGT) likely has a rib issue. Joshua's finger probably still isn't 100%, and Soucy is probably still dealing with the ailments that knocked him out of the roster for long stretches earlier this year. You're probably right about Hronek and Cole. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looks so similar to players I've worked with in the past with cracked ribs. Doesn't technically effect movement, just hurts like sin every time you do anything. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a cracked or severely bruised rib from falling onto my elbow pad. you’re absolutely right it hurts an incredible amount but i could still work.

Im a house framer for reference I've seen him on the bench a number of times this postseason, and he'll reach out and rest his arm out stretched on the board in front of him, and flex forward taking deep, labored breathes in. Essentially trying to decrease rib movement as much as possible. That's not even mentioning how much different he's looked on the ice.

Im a house framer for reference I would imagine getting hit in playoff hockey with a cracked rib is a lot different than even a manual labour job. No offense intended. I had a cracked rib before, and it was BAD. Very limited for a couple of months, and could still feel pain a year and a half later if I applied any pressure to the area. And trust me when I tell you guys I'm no pansy when it comes to pain tolerance. Granted, the doctors could provide virtually no treatment for me; it just had to heal. I imagine that in a playoff situation, there are options like injections, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is short sighted on someones part whether the Canucks Staff or Petterson himself because this led to 4 months of uselessness which cost us in the end at the most important time of the year when he was most needed.

What were they thinking???? The Canucks medical staff has been truly awful for a long time now. I remember seeing Garland take a clear head shot, look a little disoriented, and they didn't even look at him a couple of years ago. Should have shut down Petey and let him rest instead of playing through it and making it worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
