So Sieloff has a staph infection. He's still in Calgary with Flames doctors.
I spoke to Ward this morning and he said he's "going to be a while." After he's recovered from the infection, he's going to have to get back into game shape. So yeah, poor guy's going to have a rough go of his first pro season.
Ward just loves the guy though. He couldn't say enough good things about him. Here's an exact quote of what he said today:
"We miss the 19-year-old. He's the youngest D in the league and we miss him because he's physical and he's honest. It's like playing against a 32-year-old. He's so mature in his approach to the game. He knows his role. He just gets it. This kid gets it."
