I may not always agree w/ dews, but that dude's brought the noise to this thread! props!
I wouldn't hold your breath to get any info beyond upper body injury for Hossa. I am guessing we won't get an update on his status until after the suspension hearing.
He is hurtin.
For a squirtin.
Canucks fan here. Yes, I know I am in enemy territory.
So you're all upset about Torres. You're upset about having your leading scorer taken out by a reckless and illegal hit. A hit that targeted the head. A hit delivered with such brutality that it makes you angry on behalf of your injured star player. A hit that seemed to be delivered with intent to injure. A hit that will probably be insufficiently punished by the league. A hit that probably jeopardizes your chances at success in the playoffs.
Wow, I can't imagine what that's like.
PHX GM Thinks Hit Was Barely Dirty:
Coyotes GM:
When is this suspension hearing you speak of?
:thinking:
Friday is the hearing. I don't think there is any gamemanship going on with the Hawks trying to get Torres a longer suspension, but I wouldn't mind it in this case with the way the Coyotes handled Mike Smith following the Shaw hit.
sure sounds like hossa is done for the year.
no shenanigans to be played and I don't think you'd need them anyways... the nhl wants to publicly pound someone and torres is the perfect target in their eyes.
feels like he's gonna get raped.
Here's what I know:
"Severe" whiplash (soft tissue injury), out 5-6 weeks. Also a concussion.
Was so swollen and in so much pain the other night, a complete diagnosis could not be made but they felt fairly confident he will be OK for summer training and next year.
He is being re-evaluated today so the results can be sent for Torres' hearing.
Torres, BTW, is f---ed.

Oh wait....... YES I CAN
We may be on the golf courses soon, but without Hossa, we'll see you there shortly after.

JJ over at HB had this to say...
I consider a JJ a good source on the injury front. He was the first one to report that Kane was going to have hand/wrist surgery and JJ got ripped apart by several media people claiming that the report wasn't true.
The more and more I think about it, I think Torres gets the Matt Cooke treatment here when it comes to a suspension.

Hossa thread turns into a Canuck one.
Shocker. :clap:
