If it is indeed a concussion as many believe, he has to clear protocol there first before he can proceed to on-ice stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely not what they meant in transparency, by spelling out player injuries. Would simply be "nice" if they would comment more on injury...but totally agree in not fully discussing his injury in public, simply to curb fan/talking head curiosity. And i guess no concussion is a positive at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfredoh2009 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I am sad for Juulsen, he is having to battle through injuries and bad luck when he should be focusing on hockey. I hope it doesn't compromise his NHL career Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 Andrew Shaw has been cleared for contact and had his first full team practice since being injured today. That means he's likely pretty close to a return. Byron is back Saturday as his suspension is over. when Shaw is ready to be activated, the Habs would be over the roster limit. Expect either a trade before that, or someone like Hudon will end up waived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he clears waivers, Hudon should improve by playing lots in Laval, I would prefer they waive Peca though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMAC Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I would not expect Hudon or Peca to clear waivers. Hoping for a trade so that we get something back instead of losing another asset without any return Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping for a trade so that we get something back instead of losing another asset without any return Looking at the Oilers current winger situation, I see them able to make use of a guy like Hudon Looking at their cap situation, we can also take back a bad contract that gives them more cap space as well (Talbot or Reider) Maybe between Hudon and the Cap Space we can get an actual asset in return. (Of course with the 23 man roster situation we would have to waive Talbot or Reider right away but I wouldn't worry about that) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, a expected full recovery is somewhat positive at least, taking 2 pucks to same cheek in one game was just horrible luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neech Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Oh well, Juulsen was a year or two away anyhow. Keeps him from being tossed around as a trade asset though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazy26 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 #Habs Julien says Byron didn’t suffer a shoulder injury. It’s an arm injury but he will be further tested to diagnose the nature.

BCHabnut Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Byron will not travel to Columbus. I feel like a questionable (but not egregious) hit on a third pair guy which has been punished with a strict 3 game suspension and followed up with an apology by the much smaller , clean playing offender, should suffice. The fact that the code came into this annoys me. It was selfish of byron IMO. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further retribution (and therefore fighting) should be unnecessary. Where official discipline has been meted out, the asinine ‘code’ should be redundant. Byron was stupidly trying to be Old School. Now he’s paid twice for what he did, and for no reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanfan Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 The 'Code' is the NHL's version of bullying, and it is allowed to exist. Very strange concept when you think about it in 2019. Then again, the NHL is all about 'Old School' politics. Don't celebrate too much, don't check a big player if you are a small one, don't do this and don't do that. A lot of BS if you ask me. Some on here (and other places) are calling Byron dumb for fighting, yet despite what Weegar says - he left Byron little choice. Truth is it happens all the time in the NHL, and I bet at least half the posters on this board would say something like - "the NHL is a man's league, Byron needs to man up". Weegar should be getting a 'severe' instigator suspension if the league were really serious about putting an end to this kind of thing. And Weegar himself admitted to being the instigator by 'asking' Byron to fight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
