2014/15 Leafs Injuries Thread

[Potvin29]

Didn't see a thread for something like this - if I missed it, please merge.

Per @markhmasters, David Booth's timeline for return is looking closer to six week prognosis, perhaps longer.

Timing it to coincide with Kontiola's return, to create a speedy 4th line of Booth / Improved-Skating-Action Kontiola / Kozun

Good thread, I was just thinking of it. We have been pretty lucky so far with only one guy on the Injury list. Great we have a depth we have not had for sometime.

It's an embarrassment of borderline 4th line riches!

[Highlander]

we have a plethora of choices….LOL

I guess this was kind of inevitable:

Paul Hendrick‏@HennyTweets·5 mins5 minutes ago
Joffrey Lupul is not skating at practice. Details to follow after. #TMLtalk

Of course, it could be nothing...

I'd be more concerned if today was a game day.

Me from after the Colorado game:

That was the most physical I've seen Lupul play in a very long time. I was afraid his body was going to break.

*sigh*

[Boston Leaf]

well did they not skate yesterday? I thought I heard Randy say day off? So if so wouldn't that be a sort of maintenance day? I like Lupul but he jsut cant stay healthy (of course I jump to conclusions)

[Nik]

In fairness given Lupul's injury history there may be an inclination to being more protective of him than another player. Considering what the Leafs have gone through with injuries in recent years where one or two games off blossoms into 3 or 4 weeks then I'm all for resting someone like Lupul even for precautionary reasons.

mirtle: Carlyle says Lupul has lower body injury he tweaked in last game. Unknown how long he's out.

jonasTSN1050: Carlyle says Lupul has a lower-body issue, but it's his right leg. Was stretching it out constantly in middle of Tuesday's game.

Sounds like it could be something he can play through, but, this early in the season, sitting him out for a couple games might not be the worst idea.

Hopefully Matty will be given a chance now.
