devilsfan26 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I really don't think it's a concussion considering how easily he was able to skate off. I think it's a wrist injury, it looks like he takes a bit of a slash before the hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitico12 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Judging from the replays posted I don't think its a concussion. Many of you are speculating "wrist," however, notice how he skates off the ice pretty quickly not "cradling" one arm with the other. If he broke an arm or wrist, do you think he would be able to independently move his arms to skate off the ice without supporting it with another arm. This is tricky.

Or that he'd be able to play four shifts afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onddeck Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 if it was a break of any kind, he would have at least some sort of grimacing pain expression. and if it was a concussion i dont think he would've skated off as smoothly as he did. idk, i guess we just gotta play the waiting game with this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I broke my elbow playing basketball before and it took 30 more minutes of playing to realize something was majorly wrong instead of just a little sore. Between endorphin's and adrenaline, especially for these guys in the playoffs, injuries are not going to be felt immediately. Hoping for the best.

Amberite Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I think its his right shoulder. It looks like it went into the boards hard at a weird angle. It would make the most sense with how he looked during / after, and why he was able to keep going for a few more shifts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amberite Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) Lou stating Zidlicky is "day to day". If he can be believed, that's good news. Hopefully will only miss 1 game, if any. Tom Gulitti @TGfireandiceLou Lamoriello says Marek Zidlicky is "day to day." Would not say what the nature of Zidlicky's injury is. Not even upper or lower body.

Z-Man Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 http://blogs.northjersey.com/blogs/fireice/lamoriello_zidlicky_day_to_day/ In Lou-speak, that means Z's arm is hanging off and he thinks he's back in the Czech Republic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triumph Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Lou wouldn't commit to him playing Game 1 - that's still bad news. I don't have much hope that he'll be 100% even if he does play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I think he'll miss game 1. I don't think Lou is lying when he says day-to-day, but I think he knows it will probably sideline him at least for the first game.

Deek_1969 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 One cheap shot after the next. Someone was eventually going to get hurt. I am truly surprised Zubs is still able to skate. That guy took more cheap shots than anyone on the ice. Let's Go Devils!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triumph Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Last person that was "day-to-day" was Zajac and Tallinder, and you know where that ended up...this is NOT good news. Tallinder was day to day for like 2 hours. It was revealed he wouldn't play that night, then they announced he was out for several weeks. Zajac was also never really day to day. In addition, lots of guys who were announced as day to day actually were - like Ryan Carter, Anton Volchenkov, Alexei Ponikarovsky, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 29th Pick Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) Is Tallinder still alive ? how's his blood clot?...it must be getting better? Edited May 9, 2012 by hargsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Well Tallinder is skating on his own...guess that's a plus Anyway, I think I'd be more worried if the Zidlicky thing was lower body. That would be tougher to manage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
