GDT: Rangers during the lockout (12/12: Stepan, McDonagh, Nash, Del Zotto return home)

[InjuredChoker]

Loui Eriksson joining Nash and Thornton in Davos, according to he's agent per Expressen.

Not a bad first line.

[NYR Boyler87]

The players are being cautious and the teams over there are doing the same. They understand these guys are there to play and stay in shape. If they gets bumps/bruises they will take days off to stay fresh. People need to relax.

Yeah but they only called Eriksson because Nash is again injured, so they won't play togheter tonite. Don't know really the term in english, maybe you understand online translated: thigh disjunction(?).
Del Zotto plays tonight for Rapperswil, after the lost game on Sunday and some injured defenders the Coach made a change in the lineup.

Here something Off Ice, Swiss Quiz with Del Zotto and Spezza:

According to Marcel Kutch Rick Nash will be out for one week because he re-aggravated his groin issue over the weekend.

[NYR Boyler87]

This is bound to happen before everyone freaks out. Players who haven't played a lot get sore groins because they aren't in tip-top shape

Wait until you see how many of these happen once hockey gets started again, whenever that may be.

Yep, it is going to be scary how many players have to get shut down for multiple games to rest sore groins

[BroadwayBlues]

He has about a year to rest.

[Vitto79]

Nash needs to come back to NA. IF there is a yr he has to be ready for the Rangers

That's why he's in Switzerland.

Crazy game here last night. Davos without Nash.
MDZ with a nice "Baseball" Goal to 2:3

He should just come back to New York. The lockout will be over by the time he recovers from his injury.

[NYR Boyler87]

These "groin pulls" or "groin strains" are nothing more than these guys pushing too hard because they are not in regular season shape. That is the exact reason why these guys are over in Europe playing (besides a side income) to begin with.

[Kurt Russell Crowe]

Nash is heading back to New York.

Locked out New York Rangers' forward Rick Nash has left HC Davos of the Swiss League and is returning to New York after aggravating a groin injury.

According to the New York Post, Nash is heading home for "precautionary reasons" to be examined by Rangers' team doctors.

Ah well, he's got another nine months before he'll need to worry about it.

I thought he isn't allowed to be evaluated by team doctors?

Here's one tweet, though source is unknown; sounds correct though:

nyrs_rangers ‏@nyrs_rangers
@nhlupdate The Rangers team doctors see patients besides NYR players in their private practice. Nash will pay for the Drs visit.

[Desdichado62]

I also read somewhere that Lundqvist is on his way back to NY.

[Clowes Line]

A bunch of Rangers were bartending on Staten Island during the aftermath of Sandy. This is one guy's story.

http://snyrangersblog.com/charity/re...staten-island/

At one point Cally started his own “*******” chant to a women that walked in wearing a Devils jersey.

[Punxrocknyc19]

Not only Rick Nash is back in NYC but Michael Del Zotto is back as well.

Nash and Del Zotto should stay here for good. They are too important to the Rangers to risk injury in Europe due the lockout

I'd be shocked if either of them went back. I'm sure they want to be home for Christmas.

[Grind Jam Grind]

On the main board, Rangerboy said that DZ has a minor back injury.

[Bleed Ranger Blue]

Can't blame these players for hurrying back home the moment a minor injury strikes. They know the NHL is still their meal ticket despite all of its problems.

I would love to get more information on what happened with Ryan McDonagh in particular. I can only speculate he didnt enjoy the amenities provided by the KHL.

So is our only player still playing overseas Derek Stepan?
