Injury Report: Brett Pesce

[Svechhammer]

If he's even cleared to skate (which I doubt) He'd be an idiot to come back to a sinking ship and risk reinjuring. If I were him I would hold out too.

Well he didn't practice today, so safe to say he's done for the year. Even if we win I can't see them bringing him back now

charge he phone, be bisexual, eat hot chip and lie

Unless we do magically pull off the comeback.

Oh shit

Im pretty sure Rod said afterwards that Pesce is still "doubtful" despite skating today.

True, but if this series comes back to Raleigh, all bets might be off

It's playoffs, the amount of gamesmanship on stuff like this from coaches is always huge. No need to tip your hand early and let the other team plan.

Rod's been playing #thelonggame with his health reports.

Also with this series.

I don't see Pesce coming back this series. Realistically, he'd need to be at least, what, maybe 90% or more in order to not hurt the team more than TDA? He already seemed to be slowing down a bit to me, and in addition to the foot he hasn't skated for how long?

tldr: hockey just doesn't provide an opportunity for Willis Reed type moments (the old people will understand that reference).

 

[To Be Determined]

If i'm the screenwriter for this, he returns in game seven inspiring the canes to take the series. Just so i can annoy ranger fans with dumb lines like "man, pesce is the willis reed of msg."

Erik Cole broke his neck and came back for the finals.

And 3 months later. If Canes somehow came back to win this series I could see him possibly coming back for the next one, but I'd be surprised to see him play against the Rags. I wouldn't mind being wrong as long as he improves the team. I was just saying a 75% Brett Pesce isn't going to do that (imo, of course).

So what you're saying is that he won the Stanley Cup with a broken freakin neck

maybe we had Mark Stone's doctor?

Erik Cole broke his neck and came back for the finals.

I was hoping that Fast would be back too with a muscle versus structural issue.

He must have bad neck spasms. Oh well.

 

[Good in Osgoode]

Right now the priority list is Jarvis then Guentzel.

Its rumored Brett turned down a 5x5 offer to extend, Skjei has had a couple "interesting" offers.

Brett as a UFA unsure what he will get.

Hey guys, Sens fan here.
Asking for a friend:

What are your thoughts on Chatfield?
Is he capable of playing as a Top 4 D?
Will the Canes be pushing to bring him back this off-season?

Thanks and good luck in the game tonight!

Someone will pay chatty as a botom end top 4 guy.

Difference of opinions on here whether chatty is able to step in that role

Colesy did have intensity, integrity, and intelligence.

 

[bleedgreen]

So Rays not a fan of Kuzy. So quick to remember a penalty four games ago…

You can’t have him. Should definitely be re-signed here as he’s been a good fit and we’re having a lot of turnover on d as it is.

If he makes it to free agency, though, I’m sure someone will offer him more than us. Then up to him to decide but I wouldn’t fault him for following the money.
