YoloinOhio Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 @2minsforhockey Alright #Sabres fans, one specialist I know reviewed the tape and thinks it's a Grade II sprain, 3-6 week injury. #Eichel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkyMannn Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 @2minsforhockey Alright #Sabres fans, one specialist I know reviewed the tape and thinks it's a Grade II sprain, 3-6 week injury. #Eichel You can only hope. To me, seems rare for NHL players to blow out knees and acl, mcl, etc. At least not near at the rate of NFL players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll wait for the doc that actually lays hands on Eichel to give us the dx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrader Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Thank goodness this isn't how medical conditions are actually diagnosed. I'll wait for the doc that actually lays hands on Eichel to give us the dx. A doctor I work with said something along the lines of "we don't like to diagnose over the phone". That feels appropriate here. I can't help but wonder about any of these doctors who go out of their way to publicly diagnose from afar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkAF43 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 that looked painful, fingers crossed for Jack's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 @TSNBobMcKenzie Initial diagnosis on Jack Eichel immediately after incident was high ankle sprain, but Eichel is seeing doctors/getting imaging done. Whether there is more definitive/different diagnosis still to be seen, but for now BUF anticipates minimum 4-6 wk absence, perhaps longer. In any case, as stated, BUF awaiting a more detailed diagnosis/prognosis on Eichel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plenzmd1 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Can you imagine if we open the season tomorrow with no Jack, No Kyle and No Ryan..wow.. At least the Panthers tickets in a couple weeks might be cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 @BuffaloSabres Injury Update: Jack Eichel has been diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain. As of now, no timetable has been set for his return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) Anyone else a little relieved? I mean, it royally sucks. But I was fearing the whole season. Edited October 12, 2016 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll wait for the doc that actually lays hands on Eichel to give us the dx. Come on... We all know this. It's common sense what you are saying. The point is he just trying to guess via viewing the tape. He said he "thinks" what it is... Just a guess man... It means nothing. Just take as that.

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) McAnkle So buffalo. Succeed at the tank, don't get McDavid. Eichel has a solid season, then major inury. Also, at WGR for the funeral music. Edited October 12, 2016 by joesixpack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
