Demko to hold presser on his health soon. He’s on the ice doing some rope tension drills. Maybe put the health question to bed.

Couple Canuck roster spots up for grabs will be nice to see what battles come out of it.

Swaymen not reporting to Bruins camp. Lots percolating will we have a preseason bombshell trade?

Hopefully he shops at the same place as Vantel's wife.

NHL Owners will be meeting soon to approve the expansion opening. Leading candidates/ownership groups are believed to be Fertitta in Houston and Krause in Atlanta. #NHLexpansion #NHL

Atlanta? I can’t wait for them to fail. People in Atlanta don’t give a (frank) about hockey and it’s also a top 5 dump of a city in NA. Disgusting place

Something I found interesting is that he said they couldn't find any other goalies that have ever dealt with the type of injury he has, only a handful of soccer players. The fact that it's muscular is probably a good thing in my mind, tendon and nerve injuries tend to be more finicky and in some cases impossible to fully heal.

“It’s like a nagging injury that doesn’t want to go away,” says Elias Pettersson about his knee.

“We figured out a way to work around it.”

Says he’s not feeling pain right now.

Have you ever had tendonitis? It doesn't usually go away quickly. It's more likely just something he's going to have to learn to live with unless he wants surgery

He should retire if he finds it uncomfortable.

Let's see how it stand's up after a long and grueling season.

The idea what someone is being a whiner because they're answering a question from the media about an injury is so weird.

If anything, the fact that he went months without mentioning it speaks to exactly what you guys seem to want out of him

He used it as an excuse for limited scoring in the latter half of the season and for being useless in the playoffs. If tendinitis affects him that badly he should be shut down and have surgery to repair it. Or STFU about it and earn your $11.75 million.

I know you would, and then live off free money for the rest of his life...oh wait.

What a circus this Demko injury is. Why are they being so dodgy? No one will give a straight answer on anything about it including Demko. We know it's his knee but they won't say so. They keep saying muscle injury when asked. Ok... a knee muscle I guess. Talk to no end about how rare and unique this injury is. Refuse to actually tell us what the injury is... just vague about all of it even when answering questions about it for 20 minutes.

So far this club under new management has been terrible with player injuries.

Great post except it’s not his knee. Otherwise tremendous
