SCBILLFAN1 Posted January 18, 2017 Report Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) I watched the first period last night and I could tell the Lehner was struggling. He had little movement and basically just tried to make a centered wall. How could Blysma put him in back to back games after recuperating from the flu? Just a dumb move that cost the team big.

rjones71 Posted January 18, 2017 Report Posted January 18, 2017 You said it. Bylsma (if I call him coach I throw up in my mouth) has no clue about what he is doing. He is holding this team back in the worst way. He needs to be gone NOW! Quote
Jsixspd Posted January 18, 2017 Report Posted January 18, 2017 Lehner was sick again? I didn't know why they were sitting him out - thought it was just because Nilsson was perceived to be on a hot streak? That guy seems to be sick or hurt half the season; wasn't he out due to illness earlier this season too? Quote
Doohicksie Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 Sick still. He didn't travel with the team on the last trip. His first two games back after being sick were back-to-back. This is the same bug, I think, that kept Carrier out a few games and they mentioned he lost 13 pounds from it. Quote
TheAud Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 Lehner was sick again?

That guy seems to be sick or hurt half the season; wasn't he out due to illness earlier this season too? Tweaked his hip and sat out two games earlier this season. The flu cost him three. I agree with the OP that it made no sense to start Lehner on the second half of the back to back given how well Nilsson has played...and the fact the guy just got over the flu. Given how many back to backs the team has coming up I hope Bylsma gets a clue on this topic. Also, I don't think the flu qualifies as part of an 'injury prone' label on Lehner... Quote
Doohicksie Posted January 20, 2017 Report Posted January 20, 2017 And now Nilsson is out with the flu. I wonder if maybe Lehner started the Toronto game because Nilsson was starting to feel sick. Quote
North Buffalo Posted January 20, 2017 Report Posted January 20, 2017 (edited) Flu season is upon us. Two bugs out there. Stomach one and the other more sore throat achey and sinus. The later causing lots of Pneumonia. Our ER is loaded with coughing and puking sick people. Fun for all hope they get better. Edited January 20, 2017 by North Buffalo Quote
Doohicksie Posted January 23, 2017 Report Posted January 23, 2017 I don't think it was the flu per se (since I got my flu shot, and it really wasn't a *severe* illness), but I had 3+ week cold in December. I think I took one day off hoping I could sleep it off but that didn't work. My doctor finally prescribed antibiotics (kind of a marginal move, but I rarely get them), and after the 10 day course I finally felt better. Quote
