Machine of Loving Grace Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Good news about his recovery but it was obvious he wasn't healing right after a month and the medical staff just waited around with their hands in their pockets? No extra testing? Just a bunch of grey area garble? Why could we see it but they couldn't? Team doctors are a complete joke. They played him because he wanted to play and they were not getting in his way. Nothing else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trizzak Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Won't be seeing a lot of players til September: Weber, Danault, Mete, Andrew Shaw, Pacioretty, and Hemsky will not play again this season as per Julien. Valiev and Schlemko will likely return this season, probably Schlemko before Valiev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Hemsky should be well rested for 18-19 season with Habs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Hopefully, Valiev can get into a few games before the end of the year. The Habs need to get a look at him to see if he can hold a 6/7/8 spot for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trizzak Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Schlemko appears to be injured again. You almost need to consider him a #6-7 defenseman just by the # of games he's likely to play in a season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbhatt Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Byron out 6 months after shoulder surgery: https://www.tsn.ca/habs-byron-shoulder-out-6-months-1.1060965 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 There's always one player who isn't supposed to be ready for the start of the regular season due to an offseason surgery - I guess it's Byron's turn this time. That will take him out of the running for the Worlds too (I had him as a fourth line darkhorse given his speed and penalty killing abilities).

Trizzak Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Why would Byron play even a single game with the team past February if he was injured? It's so much better for him to get the surgery done early and show up to training camp completely fit (in a contract year!) instead of playing useless games on a bad team, delaying surgery, and showing up about a month into next season a step behind everyone else.

Commandant Posted April 25, 2018 Author Share Posted April 25, 2018 Shaw out 6 months with knee surgery. IF anyone is wondering why they delayed the surgery, it was because they wanted his concussion symptoms gone before operating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trizzak Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I had both Shaw and Byron as dark horses for trades at the draft. That horse is pitch black now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Why, when healthy, those are 2 of the better habs forwards. Shaw is a CJ type of player when healthy. Byron has the best contract in the league. Put them with Danault, that's a great 3rd line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put them with Danault, that's a great 3rd line Habs have too many wingers, and I think Byron's contract is exactly the kind that a team will overpay for this summer. Shaw, well, I think there are other GMs out there that will want to add "sandpaper" to their lineup, and I just want him traded so another team can pay him to get injured.

Chris Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Correct on the wingers, The habs are a team that needs sand paper, I would trade Pacs for #1 center, galchenyuk for a #2 center, clears up space on the wing, solves the center problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought a delay may be due to wanting to see if rehab would fix it first without needing to have the procedure done as we see a lot of players do. The Habs have been pretty consistent since he went down again in saying that it was a knee injury and not any lingering concussion symptoms (although who knows if that was entirely truthful or not).

That info comes right from the story on the Habs website. https://www.nhl.com/canadiens/news/andrew-shaw-undergoes-knee-surgery/c-298248536 "The procedure was performed by Dr. Daniel Whelan in Toronto. Shaw suffered a left knee injury, as well as a concussion, on March 13 against Dallas. Shaw and the Club agreed to proceed with the surgery once his concussion was fully resolved."
