What a f***ing embarassment from the Ducks. Heads have to roll over this - completely unacceptable.
In fairness to bob the comment he made was that he was upset that some players wouldn't play through bumps and bruises. Big difference between hurting and being injured. I think that was in juxtaposition to guys like perry and kesler who decided to warrior through legitimate injuries because they wanted to be on the ice that badly.
Yeah, I think Bob’s comments were more along these lines than saying he wanted guys to play through major injury. The comparison of hurting vs. being injured definitely rings a bell. I think he also said that he got pissed when the player said “if it was the playoffs, I’d play.” Pretty sure he was referring to Ritchie, and I could see why that would be upsetting. Usually it’s the coaching staff and management deciding to hold a guy back if it’s not the playoffs, not the player himself.
Either you didn't understand what I said, or didn't read it in context. I was not critical of Bob in any way. I was saying that he never was adamant that guys play through a serious injury.No it wasn't, he emphasized a few times when you're hurt, you are hurt and don't play.
You guys want to point everything to Bobs failure.
I didn't watch the game, but I suspect its due to his getting clocked in a fight earlier in the week.
Oh no. Hope it isn't a concussion.

What also infuriates me about Silfverberg's injury is that he could have gotten it fixed last offseason when it was clear that Anaheim was out of any play-in -games and the start for 2020-2021 season was in the far distant. Even if he goes to the surgery in June, he likely would have made the season opener.
This is something I forgot about. When everything got shut down, elective, non life saving surgeries got canceled as well.
