Spacek and kotalik will come back sometime this week... no word on paille. Good good good news for the sabres. Well, good news till connolly suffers turf toe or something crazy.
Hawerchuk Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 I still don't think we will see Tim at all the rest of this season. But man, I hope I'm wrong on this.
Bmwolf21 Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 You almost have to wonder if they waited too long to try the UB "alternative" treatment on TC's headaches...
Corp000085 Posted March 12, 2007 Author Report Posted March 12, 2007 You almost have to wonder if they waited too long to try the UB "alternative" treatment on TC's headaches... considering he may not have even had a concussion to begin with, yeah... but that's 20/20. If connolly can skate sometime this week, there's no reason why he can't play for the toronto home and home next weekend... Of course, that's my sister's wedding, so i'm sure he'll play then. the only 2 games i'll miss this season

LabattBlue Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 In another newsflash...Connolly was eating his fruit loops this morning and by accident got a couple up his nose. A flaming bacterial infection followed and an emergency fruitloopectomy had to be performed. All bike riding is on hold indefinitely. He is limited to the Chippewa bar scene, bathroom functions and watching "The View" which he has become addicted to over the last 9 months.
inkman Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 yeah, yeah, yeah...Is there no end to this tease? It's March 12th. He's still not skating. That kind of tease doesn't make you think you are ever going to get some.

The news on Kotalik is not as good as that. Lindy said he hopes by the end of the week Kotalik can be "pretty close" to returning. Honestly, I think you have to take all this talk and basically ignore it. This organization has very little credibility when it comes to injuries.

wjag Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 Where does the upper body begin? Just above the sole of the feet :)
X. Benedict Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 Just above the sole of the feet :) Good to know, I was thinking shinbones.
Allan in MD Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 If Tim cannot play before the playoffs, hide your hope and expectations.
DR HOLLIDAY Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 Keep Timmy away from any spiders........... :beer:
darksabre Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 even if connolly is well enough for the playoffs, what are the chances he'll be on his A game for it? He's going to be crazy rusty and we all know practicing with the team isn't going to be enough. At this point they might as well just keep him out of the game until next year to make sure he's REALLLLLY healed. Maybe a titanium endo-skeleton is in order too. And bubble wrap...

A 50% Tim Connolly is still light years ahead of Andrew Peters and some others... even if he's all the way down at 14th on the forward depth chart.
Raelity Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 Aren't any of you worried that IF Tim comes back in the playoffs other teams will target him for bone crunching hits, trying to knock him out of it again? Not that anyone ever does that or anything...
Claude Balls Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 Well, good news till connolly suffers turf toe or something crazy. I believe the correct medical term for this injury in hockey is "Ice Toe".
Kristian Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 considering he may not have even had a concussion to begin with, yeah... but that's 20/20. Well, considering that this was the same medical staff that failed to diagnose Danny's sports hernia last year, I'd say somebody should be looking for a new job right about now.

Not that anyone ever does that or anything... WARNING: Notice "winks" at end of post! No... Because I have faith that the NHL will start enforcing the new rules again during the playoffs... You know it is all part of the master plan to bring BFLO a Cup! ;) ;) ;)
inkman Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 If Tim cannot play before the playoffs, hide your hope and expectations. Well, I have no hope of TC coming back and zero expectations of his performance if he does. Just saying...
Ogie Oglethorpe Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 Well, I have no hope of TC coming back and zero expectations of his performance if he does. Just saying... So in the end, you'll either get what you expected or be totally shocked and surprised as he floats around defenders again. I agree. He has not been with the team all season... all he can do is provide a huge boost during a long playoff run.
shrader Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 Well, considering that this was the same medical staff that failed to diagnose Danny's sports hernia last year, I'd say somebody should be looking for a new job right about now. They're ridiculously tough to diagnose. I know of one college player who went at least 8 months last year before his sports hernia was properly diagnosed.
