InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I'm guessing Hak was referencing that his injury is a 6-8 week injury (as of the date of the injury occurring) rather than 6-8 weeks from today. So a great scenario would be getting him back against Niagra however it might be more likely against UNO. Well if we're getting really technical(which it seems like we are) 6 weeks from the injury would insert him into the lineup on Saturday night in the 3rd period against Niagra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One week's one week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I was just trying to think it through. One week's one week. I know, just giving you crap. I'm just happy it's not an end of the season type injury, because that's what I was thinking leaving the arena that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux rube Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Man that stinks. But the team is deep on the blueline. But they are obviously losing their most consistent d man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keikla Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I just hope he's the same post-injury. Look at Derrick LaPointe as an example. He was good after he recovered, but he never quite returned to his pre-break level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember but wasnt Lapoint's injury season ending? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really remember, but I thought Lapoint's was in the second half, which makes sense that it was season ending. I guess it's possible this injury is less severe, but we can't know one way or another since it's still being defined as 'a lower leg injury' without additional detail.

burd Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 LaPoint's injury was pretty horrific. At least to witness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.357 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I was expecting that. Could've been worse I guess. This team has a lot of interchangeable parts. One part that cannot be interchanged is at goalie. As Zane goes this year, so goes UND. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxfaninseattle Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 LaPoint's injury was pretty horrific. At least to witness. I remember it well. At the time I was hoping he could walk normal again, and didn't expect him to play hockey again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just remember watching the Lapoint replay and it was awful, leg broke in multiple places I believe. I'm no doctor, but I'd be blown away if thats a 6 week injury.

ethanm Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I broke my fibula and ankle crashing into the boards. The doctor told me it would be 8-10 weeks to recover. The 6-8 week timeframe for Stecher makes me think his injury may not be as bad as mine. My ankle has never been the same since, but it's not something I notice skating. I was at the game where LaPoint was injured. Didn't really see it as I was on the other end, and I've found I can't get myself to watch replays of injures ever since my own.

InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 UND back to #1 uscho poll Miami 5 UMD 7 DU 10 ...and a solid #8 in the pairwise. I'm interested to see Jim Dahl's breakdown of wins we need this year. It'll probably differ a bit from the past 10 or so years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
