fishbulb Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I wish I could trust a darn word he says... but as far as injuries go, Homer is pretty misleading. Giroux could be friggin' decapitated and Homer would refer to it as an upper body injury.... or a virus :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vincent05 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Sunday updatehttp://www.csnphilly.com/blog/flyers-talk/post/Flyers-injury-update-Giroux-Bryz-Pronger?blockID=610086&feedID=704"With fingers crossed.That's how the Flyers go into this coming week as Claude Giroux and Ilya Bryzgalov both recover from injuries incurred in Saturday's 5-2 win over Tampa Bay.General manager Paul Holmgren said that Giroux "felt better" today after being kneed in the head by Wayne Simmonds during a freak second period play on Saturday. The Flyers are watching for a concussion there.Giroux will be re-evaluated on Monday.Bryzgalov incurred what appeared to be a right thigh injury and was doing "much better" and is expected to be available for Tuesday's game in Washington.Lastly, Erik Gustafsson, recovering from a broken wrist,will be begin rehab this week and skating. He is still about two weeks away from playing. The Flyers desperately need to get Gustafsson back as they have no defensive depth right now with Chris Pronger out indefinitely with an apparent eye concussion.Pronger will be re-evaluated Monday in Pittsburgh by concussion specialist Joseph Maroon."

OzFlyer Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 (edited) Twitter- Dustin Leed Sources close to Giroux confirm to me that he is fine. Was internal discussion on letting him play 3rd period, but PHI chose to be cautious. Edited December 11, 2011 by OzFlyer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idahophilly Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 My problem believing anything is this: Pronger had a virus? OK, tell us if he has runny nose and can't breath through it. A sore throat and can't yell at Bob in Russian. But, nooooo.... he has a "virus" that the main symtom is a headache? Hmmm... First thing to check might be to ask yourself : "did he recently get his eyeball almost whacked out of hid head"? Might be a starting point!!!!!!! I trust nothing until I see the player back on the ice and even then it's tough. Look at Crosby's re-injury... I'll hope for the best with Giroux and Schenn but I'll believe nothing....

flyercanuck Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I still can't believe McCrossin keeps his job after all these years of incompetence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tocchett92 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 My feeling on this is that it's karma. Some of are d-bag brothers have been making light of Cindy's injury and now it's coming back two fold with Giroux and Pronger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying he has a virus allows flexibility on how he can be treated. Saying he has concussion like symptoms requires specific medical responses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vincent05 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Big blow to see Giroux out for maybe 2 games but let's see how this team responds with their best player out. Now we get to see Couterier's offensive game as he took Giroux spot in practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying he has a virus allows flexibility on how he can be treated. Saying he has concussion like symptoms requires specific medical responsesIn all fairness, Pronger could have had some cold symptoms initially. But as those symptoms disappeared, the headaches, dizziness remained. And as the doctors thought they could be concussion-like.......they decided to shut him down then having the knee surgery at the same time makes a ton of sense.
