I don't know about you, but I am hoping he is fine.

Well, sure, but the really cool thing would be if he disintegrated into a pile of dust like Wile E. Coyote. Then the Flames could have the NHL's first-ever ‘no body injury’.

I get that the onus now is on the player delivering the check, but that was a terrible decision to cutback like that with a guy in his back pocket.

That looked Collarboney. Hurts like hell and he looked in pain. I think collar bone would be preferable to shoulder but what do I know. At least 6 weeks for collar bone.

I broke my collar bone when I was a teen, the rehab was pretty rough. Hurts with almost any upper body movement.

Mine came back to 100% within a year but I was functioning and using my arms within the first few weeks following the injury.

Worst part about the injury is sleeping. Real hard to get comfortable with a broken collarbone.

Hope he gets lucky but I didn't like the way his arm was hanging there.

I'm currently rehabbing my 2nd shoulder separation injury. It happened in March and I'll be playing hockey this fall but... I'm going to suck and be tentative because I don't have full range of motion and get shooting pain when I move too fast. I expect this to get better in April or May as my first seperation injury, which was a degree less severe, took one year to heal... the injury itself healed quickly but getting the rest of my shoulder/arm back to strenght and range of motion took forever.

I'm pretty sure Pelletier's 20 something body will heal and recover significantly quicker than my 40 something body though.

Yeah that sounds about right. I broke my collarbone when i was 8 or 9 years old at the beginning of the summer. , i remember the pain being excruciating and like the other poster mentioned, sleeping was quite difficult. That said, it healed over the summer and i didnt even miss hockey tryouts in the fall.

I seperated my shoulder when i was 18, missed the rest of the year and was back for my next hockey season, I remember dealing with pain for quite some time but i was pretty functional after a few months again.

I've dislocated my shoulder twice, and as far as recovery, i'd say it was the longest and hardest by far. My first time, i took 9 months to heal and honestly i didnt wait long enough, and ended up dislocating it again the following season (beer league now, i'm getting old). The second time i dislocated, i was offered surgery and declined, decided to rehab again and gave it a full 14 months to tightnen up the ligaments. Havent dislocated since.

TLDR - id say the pain of the break was the worst and quicked recovery. Separation was less painful than the dislocation and shorter recovery, all around just better than a dislocation for me, which was a long recovery. If Pelletier has a break we should see him in the lineup this season.

Does Pelts need someone to donate a collarbone?

Looks like you can buy a real human clavicle for $49.99 US from these guys

Broken bones are almost always better than damaged joints/ligaments, unless that bone is your spine or skull. Hoping it's minor regardless and there's a quick recovery.

Checkout Honzek's play at 3:20 mark, that is some serious cross over speed to go around Vince Dunn (plus great vision)

REALLY liking Meaghan

[FlamesAddiction]

Yeah, nice to have someone so engaged and observant not just on the broadcast, but following it up on social media.

[rogermexico]

Yeah I think Mikkelson is great.

Thanks Captain Obvious.

Did he look fine when he left the ice? No, he didn't.

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Ditto for the Meaghan appreciation. Love her observations/tweets/thoughts she throws out there. No cookie cutter stuff, a lot of original stuff fans will love. Hope she keeps at it all season, it's great.
