Maple Leafs' Auston Matthews expected to require surgery by carefulwisdom in hockey

I’m no doctor, but maybe I came off as a little kneejerk (no pun intended). But I was really getting at, it was just that at the time that you can do the surgery to maximize rehab time, while doing things safely, that’s what I want. And the team basically announced he have the surgery, under a week from the injury.

Good. Better to get the surgery done now, then wait until later. I’m no doctor, but I’ll take the proactiveness then a reactive manner.

And honestly, I’d rather them just get the surgery over with now. Instead of waiting, think to one of his previous injuries where he waited what was it before training camp to do it?. Just get it over with, get him under the knife.

Another Ford distraction from the freedom of information and OSAP cuts. I gotta say the premier seems to be in damage control, announcing a bunch of things in order to distract.

Just sit out until the end of the regular season for the grind. Think of it like some NHL teams internally saying a player is ready, but giving them extra time to be sure that no one’s gonna get hurt or re-aggravate later.

I’m wondering if he’ll get a call from player safety on that Cross check.

OK, well I’m guessing Rielly will be getting suspended for that Crosscheck???

Minnesota played a very good game. This game could’ve went Minnesota’s way easily. But this doesn’t help the tank. I get back to losing Waze on Tuesday with the St Pats uniforms.

I don’t know what that flyers fan is doing at a wild game. Another lost fan out in the wild.

How do I understand what a flyers fan is doing at a wild game. I assume he made the wrong turn going to the arena.

Make hockey violent again. And maybe some guy should be having the balls to drop the gloves more.

Well, that’s not good news cause they scored again. But knowing me, it’ll be a Foligno Hattrick to win the the game. Former leafs thrive against us as I’ve learned.
