Exactly. Purely random at this point.
The concern is recurring injuries, and in the following places:
1) head
2) knee
3) shoulder
4) hip
I would be far more concerned about RNH, for instance, with his shoulder than I am about Backlund.
On the Flames, I am far more concerned about Baertschi, with the concussion, than I am about a few random knicks and scrapes on Backlund.
