The hits just keep on coming. Willy Palov ? moosefan_WillyPalov More injuries for Halifax. Sam Leblanc lower body, 3-6 weeks and Vince Watt upper body, day to day. Danny Moynihan, one game suspension.At least with the older players being injured, it gives more ice to the young guys. Still, Leblanc is a loss on the PK.

Seems like every other day you guys are having a major injury, at least Ehlers will be worth the price of admission this season, always exciting to see him play.

With all these injuries its hard to believe we're just 6 games in.
Even with the injuries though, the team has been under-performing. With Leblanc out, its an opportunity for Crossley to play some minutes 5 on 5. Maybe finally get a better idea what we have in this kid.
I do like Leblanc, he's not going to do much offensively, but he's a very safe 3rd liner.

Great that puts us down 6-7 players this weekend opportunity for the young guys to step up, if Ehlers isn't back soon we may be forced to make some trades better to get the injury bug now than later in the season.

Can't make any trades now unless it is for 20s; I wonder if <<apologize for spelling ahead of time>> the Dachyshyn camp will allow him to play now, after all with all the injuries he won't be stuck on the 4th line or in the press box at this rate anyways.

With it being only temporary, I can't see him ruining any NCAA eligibility over playing 10 games or so. We won't be bettering our team this year anyway. If we get a few more losses because Lussier, Leblanc, Fitzgerald and Watt aren't healthy, then we aren't any good to begin with.... I look at it this way: More of a chance that we under-achieve going into the Christmas break, which might make Cam decide to sell off any and all valuable players and give the rebuild a little push.

Exactly- Even at full strength including Ehlers the Mooseheads aren't a legit contender... Cam would have to mortgage the future to even get us close which wouldn't be worth it at all. Losing more now helps make the decision to see at Xmas much more likely and moves us away from my biggest fear, a repeat of the 2005-2006 season where Patenaude stood pat and didn't sell like he should have in a Memorial Cup year where the Mooseheads weren't legit contenders.

If Russell committed to a full sell off it may be permanent ice time for rookies as its unlikely a team, in it to win it, sends players that could help their run. More likely picks, futures and more rookies that could be put on 4th line without options. Certainly returns would not have the same ice time as the stars leaving. I hope they sell but Euros are a unique case and 1st round picks seem to be a difficult sell in Halifax.
