Irishjim Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports is reporting that Flyers center Vinny Lecavalier has a "lower body injury". Vinny was noticeably absent from the Flyers practice in Voorhee's this morning. Lavoie's statement contradicts earlier reports that Lecavalier was not practicing with the team by choice. This news has yet to be confirmed by any of the local beat writers, but it wouldn't be the first time that they have missed a story. No word yet from GM Ron Hextall on the severity of said injury or a timetable for return. Any sort of long term injury would certainly spell the end of rampant trade speculation surrounding Lecavalier. must have been from Chief kicking him in the junk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Knut Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Is this a calculated risk hoping that sitting a healthy Vinny will make him more appealing for a trade than him being injured yet again?

AndyS Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Or this is to make it not look so bad in order to make Vinny appear more trade-able. (Who would want to trade for a player making that much money who was so unproductive that his current team just kept him out of the lineup?)

Vincent05 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 His v****a hurts from being scratched the past few games. Hence the "lower body" injury report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canoli Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Or this is to make it not look so bad in order to make Vinny appear more trade-able. (Who would want to trade for a player making that much money who was so unproductive that his current team just kept him out of the lineup?) that's what i figured when i read it too. In any case this is getting ridiculous. Benching him this long makes no sense - after tomorrow it's 6 games in a row there has to be more to this story. I can't believe it's all Berube's call, some weirdness behind-the-scenes, somebody pissed off somebody. And now we hear he's got a LBI. yeahright.
