Maybe RHP can share that magic potion with Drouin & Armia.
The guy is getting an opportunity & making the most of it. Some veterans could learn from the guy.

I had an injury called cellulitis, got it in the Dominican, but the symptoms were fever, shakes, flu etc... it messed me up for a while... had to have an iv pack with anti viral meds and it took 2 months to get over it... they also had to cut the infected spot open and let it drain... I've still got the scar on my leg.

I'll bet it was a lot nicer than where I went... it happened because I was in the sun too much and didn't put sunscreen or moisturizer on my shins and the skin broke down and the crappy virus filled shower/bath/pool water got in and caused an infection...

Guhle in a regular (contact) jersey today. Very good news. Of all the rookies he has my greatest hope. Could be captain some day! We need him to play and keep developing.

Guhle might be a Norris candidate some day. The offense has to get better and I think that will happen. He just turned 21 and has 14 points in 36 games on a, shall we say, less than impressive team, playing on the top pair and having to carry David Savard. My eye test tells me too that this kid is going to be a lot better than the average top pair Dman.
I had to chuckle at one tweet a few days ago. It showed a graph of Moritz Seider's stats of some kind, but clearly indicating quality of play this season. It shot up at one point and has kept climbing. The tweeter had an arrow pointing to the date where the stats started to improve and captioned, "If I recall, this is exactly when Seider was split up from Ben Chiarot". Those jokes never get stale. Even Yzerman thought it was wise to sign Ben. Kent Hughes, OTOH, felt quite differently.

Habs send Shooey back to Laval. Guhle must be ready to return. They also reported that Edmundson will return to practice on Monday and make the California road trip. He might get games in before the deadline or at least be cleared to play. He may be in play yet for a move. 🤞

Yeah, for sure, cross fingers on Edmundson. No word on Monahan is no doubt negative news.

When guys get hurt on this team they really get hurt. Not just weeks but months.🙁 Feels like a problem, and possibly an issue with the medical/physio staff. I've come to believe that durability is more of a skill than people think. How to get get hit without getting injured. I don't believe it's as simple as bad luck or some guys are durable and some aren't. There's more too it than that but it's mysterious for sure. Everyone kind of chuckled at Tom Brady over the years with his weird workout routine, avocado ice cream, and focus on "pliability" but the guy was as durable as heck and I saw him take a lot of punishing hits over the years. He knew how to take care of his body and avoid serious injury. It's something to look at for sure. The Habs are losing too many man games to injury. It's not as big a deal now because we suck but eventually we'll be good and need guys to stay on the ice.

The best ability in sports is avail-ability

Look at Kessel. Jerks like Steve Simmons would joke about his conditioning but he hasn't missed a game in 13 years & his streak is now 1045 games.

Probably had nothing to do with being in a division with constant sub .500 teams who couldn't pass rush if they were being chased by vikings with swords. Full disclosure: Can't stand Brady. But your point is valid. I think flexibility has a lot to do with it and angling yourself so you don't get T-boned. Gretzky was amazing at not getting hit hard and it wasn't all because of Semenko. He rarely took direct hits.

Today, Dach and Evans skated on their own before the main practice. Barron practiced with the team, but in a non-contact jersey still.

What's the mystery with Dach? Why wont anybody say what is really wrong. As for Gallagher, that timetable brings him to the end of the season. Just shut him down. The last time he came back from injury, against Nashville, he lasted one game.

A steady hot dog diet can do wonders 😮 Flexibility and resiliency are the qualities you need to absorb checks and slashes. There aren't many things on earth more resilient and flexible than a hot dog.
