I had a feeling.

Terrible news

[DocEmrick]

Lol is it so much to **** ask that we get to see like maybe one season where Crosby and Malkin get to play together? Just one mother **** season? JUST ONE **** GODDAMN SEASON WHERE THE TWO OF THEM PLAY TOGETHER AND WE GET TO SEE THE FULL POTENTIAL OF THIS TEAM? IS THAT SO MUCH TO **** ASK!?!?

I hope Philly gets Nuked first when North Korea/China and Russia light us up.

The guy just can't catch a break. Another Hart and Art Ross gone.

[thepittman]

Most likely out for the season, really hard to perform when you can't open your mouth

The Pens are being overly cautious at this point, and rightly so. I have a feeling he won't be out for as long as we think.

He'll be back on Friday. Everyone can calm down.

Or we can trade for the whole Columbus Blue Jackets team.

Indefinitely can be anywhere from a few days to a week to a month.

There is no one on the bluejackets team that is better that our worst player

I'm so sad and so angry right now that I'm both shaking and crying. I'm so furious. I'm actually off from work tomorrow...I wish I was working yo be otherwise occupied. Maybe I'll go in anyway and get some stuff done.


This is such ****. I've had it. I feel so bad for him. I'm sick of seeing him get robbed. I can't take that anymore. I just told the girl Sid is hurt I don't want to hear your ********...on any issue...just STFU.

I'm not sure why you're questioning. Where is it that says he will be out for the rest of the season?

People have returned from broken jaws before and haven't missed a month of action.

As long as he ready for the playoffs its all good.

I've know a few people who have gone through a broken jaw and it isn't something you recover from in a few days.

Patience.

[DesertPenguin]

Kunitz – Malkin – Neal
Morrow – Sutter – Iginla
Cooke – Vitale – Dupuis
Glass – Adams – Kennedy

Letang - Eaton
Orpik - Despres
Murray - Niskanen

That lineup can win a series

Lol. Way to show hockey ignorance. I'd take Dubinsky, Anisimov, Foligno, Umberger, Letestu, Prospal, Calvert, Johansen, and Atkinson over just about everyone on our 4th line, plus TK.

I also left off guys like Boll, Brassard, and Bobrovsky. Just a really terrible statement on your part.

Relax. Holy crap. I can't believe someone can get this worked up over something. It sucks but at the end of the day its just a game.

According to my reading on the web yesterday, a broken jaw means wired shut for 2 weeks then 6 weeks of healing after that. Possibly Sid returns playing with a cage during this 6 week period.

When the jaw is wired shut people tend to lose 10-20% body mass. This could be an issue unless they have a good plan.

I'm concerned that this cup run is in jeopardy, however there is hope that he can return playing with a cage I suppose.

Im sure it varies on a case by case basis.

Anquan Boldins jaw exploded, requiring surgery. I believe he missed on game. Sid will not miss the playoffs
