Hip surgery is not a good sign for carrick going forward. Those are especially tough injuries for hockey players to come back from.

Didn't Silfy get a hip surgery?

Yes. Historically it has been more difficult for hockey players to maintain previous quality of play after hip injuries/procedures than almost any other injury.

Not denying it. I just remembered Silf had hip surgery. Maybe technology and medical evolution has improved over time. If Silf was able to recover, then maybe Carrick and others can too, provided they have enough time to heal.

OTOH, while Silf started off hot last year, how long will that hip surgery last? All I know is going the non-invasive path didn't Silf at all. It got worse. He looks a lot better than 2020-21 with his hip surgery. I dunno if he can be back to pre-2020 season. If Silf looks good again this season, then Carrick may be good too since he's signed for two years with us.

Silf is also in his 30s now, players sometimes decline in their early 30s we might never see 40+ point Silf again.
Optimism is hoping he's around 35 points 5 goals and 30 assists.

It could be possible now that he's healthy again.

Silf
2021-22	Games	G	A	Pts	PPG		Plus/Minus
Total	53	5	16	21	0.40		-3
Before COVID infection	9	1	7	8	0.89		6
After COVID infection	29	1	4	5	0.17		-5
Last 15 games	15	3	5	8	0.53		-4

Silf's game slowly regained traction after meandering for 29 games after coming back from COVID. It took him that long to recover from COVID. Those last 15 games could be the hope of optimism for Silf's game this season.

Silf had a blood clot in his leg.. that completely hindered his game.. why he got the blood clot? Well that's something left to ponder

Yeah, COVID blood clots are a thing.

Guessing groin or hamstring from not playing in so long and trying way too hard... hoping nothing worse.

 

[KelVarnsen]

So day to day to the Ducks means what? Leg amputation?

He's already dead, the funeral is next Saturday.

 

[JohnnyDrama]

It’s part of what makes him effective but I wonder if he could pick his spots a bit better on when he plays with his absolute top intensity/always going mach 10. Cogs was like that though and look at him. May just have had some brutal luck so far

Mr Glass….

 

[Leonardo87]

Really feel for the guy, seems to be a nice guy and is well liked by his teammates. Hope he is ready for opening night.

 

[bsu]

He hasn't played a competitive game in how long? He was bound to pull something.

 

[ADHB]

At least he actually made it into a game. Seems like he usually gets hurt even before that point. Small steps.

So Zegras needs arm amputation? Frontal lobe lobotomy? Spinal cord removal?

Whats the word for those of us who didn't watch the game last night

Upper body injury, the end. Who knows.

Pretty much day to day with an upper body injury, until we are told otherwise. Maybe Derek Lee or Eric Stephens will give us some info.

 

[Terry Yake]

so he'll either miss a week or 6 months
