Boyle in the dog house? Is Cally actually going to play 2nite? Hope he's not rushing it , was thinking Sunday though given that he's skating in a non contact

Incredibly impressed if Callahan plays tonight. If you've ever dislocated your shoulder, you know its not as simple as popping it back.

They did say 7-14 days.

I sure hope he plays tonight if he's healthy enough.Wearing him for tonight's game.

The biggest issue with this kind of injury is that even if it feels fine within a few weeks, without surgery there's a much higher risk of it happening again. Since it happened to me 4 years ago I've had the same thing happen 2 other times. Surgery now would be irresponsible because if it happens again it's basically the same exact amount of recovery time (2 weeks or so), but off-season surgery is a good idea to keep it in place better.

People have to remember this isn't a full dislocation, only partial. It looks and feels pretty much the same but recovery is much quicker and surgery is just a precaution to keep it from happening in the future.

Thanks.

I hope he doesn't play tentatively and looks as good as he does the game he ****ed his shoulder up.

Let's go captain!

I'm not sure it always even needs surgery, depending on the severity.

For the average person, it wouldn't need surgery. Within 3 weeks I was back to playing sports and still play hockey and lacrosse to this day, but I do deal with a lot more pain than I would if I would get surgery on it. Again, surgery is really just a preventive measure to keep it from happening again, and to keep the pain to a minimum on a day-to-day basis
