Strick reported that it was an oblique.

Which is interesting because Korac said it was his hip. Doesn’t matter at this point as long as he heels.

You're right, it doesn't matter, but today's article indicated lower body injury. Wouldn't an oblique injury be considered upper body?

It would in my book!

If he’s fully healed and doesn’t reinjure, he could have a real breakout season next year. His skating and closing on pucks/carriers was elite.

That’s the hope.

Definitely agree with that. I’m still surprised and thrilled Edmonton didn’t match his offer sheet.

I get Broberg. The Blues overpaid for him. He’d be 3rd pairing at best for them right now.

Holloway didn’t make sense to me

Holloway didn’t make sense to me

We disagree on Broberg but not on Holloway. Dylan is a classic speedy winger with shooting and playmaking skills. Cournoyer comes to mind, maybe LaFleur style-wise though I'm not saying he's a superstar. The big thing is he seems to have absorbed a lot watching McDavid, he is relentless pushing the puck forward and he backchecks like a maniac.

I do not mind Broberg. He just hasn’t grown into his body and is a bit awkward physically and defensively

The best payment for Holloway IMO is to make sure that the Blues give him a Center that maximizes his talent and career.

Same with Snuggerud and all of our young guys.

I've sent a note to Holloway's agent.

An "In Time" Addendum...
"Army shall provide a 2C by January 1, 2027. This side project shall be named, "the re-2C", and it's not over until the fans say it's over."

In my best SNL Church Lady voice..."Well, isn't that special?"

During the first part of camp he stayed after and worked with Schenn a lot. As it got closer to the season he seemed to spend more time after practice working on stuff with Neighbours. The constant was that Holloway was seemingly always one of the very last guys to leave the ice. He's going to be a leader by example. Full recovery is all I want for him. When that happens, he's the player I can't wait to see.

Sounds like another Ryan O'Reilly on the work ethic front.

Who would throw an Angel Winger out there without a Holy Center? Maybe Satan?
