Friday to +Friday now for the flu, yet he's skated last two days? Not buying it... he is nursing something undisclosed is my guess

Skating alone, though, so may be testing how much he's able to do at this point in his recovery.

A back injury, specifically.  And it's been lingering for a while.

that explains all the flopping on the ice stretching his back...

Ugly fall, looked like one guy pulled his helmet off, then Kapanen fell and hit back of head on ice, fingers crossed he is OK.

He say to news he feels ok. He left game just to be sure and might stay out for a week to make sure no symptoms of concussion shows.

That is crazy. 

 

I’d rather we didn’t feed it into the “Habs are always injured” narrative, though. Heineman is a great player but not a core guy, and while this injury is a truly bizarre bit of bad luck, it’s not unusual for a team to lose a role player for a while. The main thing is that, Laine aside, all of our best players are currently on a nice run of good health.

Indeed, the Habs have been remarkably healthy this season.

At least ironman Suzuki hasnt missed a hockey game in 8-9 years going back to OHL. 

415 NHL games, how does he avoid injury; maybe his play should be studied by the Habs for lessons to be learned or passed on to some younger teammates.

(and no i dont believe in aliens, ghosts, or jinx foolishness:devil:)

 

Am curious why Heineman got hit, was it his or the driver's fault?

Most vehicle/pedestrian accidents are the drivers fault, though there are exceptions.

 

Per capita, SLC is one of the worst cities in US for pedestrian accidents.

Not trying to argue about Heineman being a core guy however he is tied for the 3rd most goals on the team and leads the team in hits. I saw that stat on the jumbotron prior to the game against Dallas and was surprised by it.  He’s also one of only 5 plus players on the team. Not necessarily a core piece per se but he brings a nice element to the team.

 

It sucks that this freak accident happened. Hopefully he recovers well and is back sooner than anticipated.

I call him “secondary core” and an important player to grow with the team. Keep him as long as you can until his salary demands cause an issue with the cap. Which hopefully isn’t for a number of years. Or maybe he can grow into being part of the core. Hard to stay ahead of the talent coming or leap over some of the present core. But yes he’s a big loss for us for the month.

Yeah.  Sometimes, you're in your car and gets distracted by recent fights or arguments you just had with your wife.
Now, imagine with multiple wives...

Ohhhhh Joe... i was thinking some smart-ass cult jab, but didnt want to go there.:D

 

We all see folks walking & glued to cellphone everywhere and I was kinda wondering if that was part of reason for accident.
