Imyourhuckleberry Verified Member Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Quote Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk could be out for a significant amount of time because of an injury he suffered at the tournament. Panthers coach Paul Maurice said that the forward will get more testing done, but recent reports elsewhere are saying that he could be out until the end of the season. And all of this is now getting more fingers pointed towards the Wild's medical team. I notice that it doesn't say he could be out for the postseason. Could this be a LTIR don't rush to come back scenario? With and additional $9.5M in salary cap to work with, Florida could load up with another player like Boeser themselves, or any type of player they prefer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen Strife Verified Member Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Let them. They are in a different conference, so what they say or do about the Wild's medical staff is their own BS agenda. Players are going to supercede doctors and their diagnoses anyway. That's how pro athletes tend to roll. Sure, Kap and others have been hurt, but that's on the Wild. Other players choosing to value the 4-Nations was on them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnfaninnc Verified Member Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago I am concerned about our medical staff, though. So, just to question, does anyone know if there was a significant change in the staff at the beginning of the seasons in 2023? Do we have the best medical staff that we can get? This would include injury prevention and post injury rehab. As for CS's point, a quick look at the standings indicates that FL is comfortably in a top 3 spot. Adding a star rental would be a nice way to enter the postseason. Speaking of that, I'm hearing Kaprizov is again delayed. What are the chances around March 5th that the delay looks to be around April 1st? Remember when Patrick Kane practiced for a couple of weeks before being activated....what was it....just after the regular season. Now, of course, if we were to try such a thing, we'd probably be penalized with another 5 years of massive cap penalties because everyone else did it and they want to make an example out of someone.

Enforceror Verified Member Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Sounds like Lauko will likely be returning for tomorrow's game. Now, if he is immediately injured again (barring any obvious unrelated injuries), I think we can go ahead and pickup those pitchforks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
