My guess is he is probably, unfortunately, done for the season and maybe his career. He had 5 concussions already before this most recent injury, which is suspected to be a concussion.
Pospisil’s injury is reminding me of Ferland near the end of his career in Vancouver. While it could end differently, it is not looking that great for him long term.
I think they need to shut him down for the year. I imagine he really wants to play for Slovakia at the Olympics but it seems pretty clear he needs significant time to get better if he wants to continue his career.
No and it concerns the shit out of me, at this point i genuinely think they don’t know if he’ll ever return and that’s why they’re keeping quiet. Don’t want to prematurely say one way or the other
50/50 that his career is over. Hope not, but you can’t mess around with brain injuries.
I’m not sure why everyone wants him back so bad. The flames have trouble scoring and staying out of the box. He is the opposite of what we need. Let him heal up.
It was inevitable
It’s been reported there’s no locker for him at the Dome so it’s not looking great unfortunately.
I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if we never see him play again.
For the betterment of his career, he should shut it down. And start to look a a different career
Sadly he is likely done. If he was smart he should hang them up concussions are scary injuries
