Broberg Out Tonight For Personal Reasons

[BobbyBlue]

Sign of the times…I’m old school…short of a death in the family…and maybe not even that…nothing that happened would cause an athlete to miss a game…but…yes…family obviously comes first…I’m just making an observation of the differences exhibited since the 1960’s vs now….when athletes showed up…no matter what. Next man up…that’s all that can be done at this point in time.

With this development, If Parayko isn't in the lineup......even if it is one of 7 D....it tells me to not expect him to be a regular contributor any time soon.

Why do you say that?

I mean if Monday he's ready and tonight he's not......This should not change that.

How is he ready Monday or Tues but not Saturday? He may have all summer to heal up if the Blues lose this one tonight

Because it's 48 or 72 hours more to heal or get past what has arisen?

If he can't go he can't go and he shouldn't.

If he can in 48 hours he should.

My real point here is if he misses tonight it's not necessarily an indication of the game on Monday.

Tuesday not Monday

I'm going to assume Kessel for now. I'm not ruling out a Parayko sighting even if the plan was originally just the finale.

tooting my own horn for suspecting something might change.
