If he is skating already is it possible to check the infamous 'lower body" injury of the list?

 

And that game is tonight 1010 pm CT on USA....correct?

Based off some things I have seen online mostly Schloss and Tim H. Sanderson is probably done for the season. Of course that is just speculation at this point but it is not pointing in the right direction. Really unfortunate if true that his playing career ending at UND like this. Let’s hope he is able to play a few more games here. 

On The Twitter Schloss made it sound like Jake has zero chance to play anymore in these Olympics.

The last time I saw a Tim H. statement it was in regards to Pinto returning to college this year (he signed with Ottawa a day later). Very interesting to see how this plays out, because like you, I was convinced yesterday based on those tweets that he was done for the year. I find that now hard to believe if he's skating. Think Schloss is more dialed in, so I'm not leaning towards that we won't see him in the Olympics (although the Coach stated he was "truly day to day"), but I'm optimistic he'll suit up for UND when he returns.

What's the word on Hain? Any chance he plays again this year?

I've been told it's a broken collarbone so I would think he's done for the year.

On Hain, I heard from some Rapids folks that it's an ACL/MCL so highly unlikely he's able to return. They weren't sure if he had surgery or not though.

As someone who has broken his fair share of collarbones, ironically playing hockey and football, this is a painful and slow recovery. Of course depends on the severity of the break but you have to be in a sling for like 8 to 9 weeks and it is just painful to move and sleep etc. However if word is that he was skating just recently that would indicate perhaps just a slight break or hairline break and may not be as painful or slow to recover. At this point, selfishly thinking of course, I just want him to get back to GF and heal up so he can be ready to play again in the next couple weeks.

If true that is not a "day to day" injury. My youngest daughter's summer was trashed due to that injury playing soccer. Who examined him in China? Xi Jinping??

Ran into him last weekend and when I asked if he’ll make it back this year he just laughed for whatever that’s worth.

Are you questioning the Supreme Leader's ability to diagnose broken bones? The Supreme Leader--the Enlightened One--knew the extent of the injury before it happened. If you have any doubts, His imperial guard would like to have a word.

Is he able to do that Mr Miyagi thing with his hands to fix Jake's collarbone?

He only needs one hand.

[burd]

Must be the lower collarbone.

Yeah, I think Jake could beat Slovakia with one hand.

US lost last night. Seems like Jake should be back this weekend

Just have to evaluate how bad his injury is.
Geez, he's had a weird season.  WJC cancelled after one prelim game.  His Olympics ends after one game.  Missed games due to illness and injury.
Now he's injured again.

Yeah, gotta be tough getting there late, getting hurt, team does really well in pool play, then loses the way it did to SVK. Hopefully he takes it all in and still enjoys his trip and opportunity to be there with the other NCAA guys. Memorable for sure. And let's hope this isn't the last we'll see of him in red white and blue in the Olympics.

Let's hope this isn't the last we'll see of him in UND green as well.

He did not finish that game with a broken collarbone.

Additional observations:

- any combo of 8 points gained by UND or lost by SCSU gets UND home ice
- any combo of 12 points gained by UND or lost by UMD guarantees UND finishes ahead of UMD <-- BIG series this weekend ... 

I’d have bet neither of those happen this weekend (was thinking splits UND/UMD and SCSU/UNO). 

Both happened. 

UND no worse than third in the NCHC.

[The Sicatoka]

UND needs 5 points either gained by UND or lost by WMU and second is guaranteed. <— Another big series. 

With the DU loss, UND now controls its own destiny regarding #PenneRosa.

Regardless of what happens the rest of the season, I will be dining on cold crow quite a bit. The boys have really exceeded expectations. 

[SIOUXELEVENS]

I will agree with crow, I prefer mine with barbecue sauce. We also have to admit this team is a bit bipolar U18 / Cornell as are most of us fans. 

[ND_Texan]

I'm gonna say it. This team's success is a result of coach Berry and his system. Period. The checking tenacity and D has put a mediocre talented team at the top of the NCHC. Go ahead and throw flames, Berry doubters, but you are dead ass wrong.
