Superman0099 Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Zach's passion to play despite a semi-serious injury just reinforces my belief about hockey players: They are the grittiest, most dedicated players on the planet. A baseball player bruises his pinky & we have a major whinefest on our hands & he's out of the line-up 3-4 weeks... Hey, don't be joking about a bruised pinky. That's some serious $h!t Quote
brianvf Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Well, according to tonights coaches show, it sounds like Zach has been winning the sprints in practice and Blais is going to let him play. Does that mean that if we still had Spiewak on the team that Zach wouldn't be playing?? Quote

That's exactly what it means But in all seriousness. If he had a knee injury, I doubt he'd be beating Murray, Fylling, and Stafford in speed drills. Quote

Yeah, well, he stubbed his toe while exitting the tub and went on the day to day list. WOW. Jim Thome is the same way. That's why Football and Hockey are the best sports in the world. Stubbing toes and breaking fingernails are piss ant injuries that only produce the whine "Put more tape on that damn thing, I need to get out and play NOW!" Quote
CoteauRinkRat Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 If he does play, it will probably bring a huge uplift to the team and the fans. Quote

I remember watching a NHL game, I forgot completely who it was, but it was playoffs... anyway, some guy for.... toronto maybe? I dunno, but he got this HUGE gash over his eye, blood all over the place, (he had gotten hit by a slap shot I believe) well they stitched him up on the bench. He missed 1 shift. Any other sport and that guy would've been out for a month. Quote
