Henrique said "it's actually the same injury" as Jacob Josefson had 2 years ago. Josefson ended up missing 2 1/2 months/30 games.

Hey look at that, I was right.

I think Josefson can be almost as good as Henrique last season offensively. He can definitely replace Parise on the PK. He really should be a first unit PK guy. He's scored 2 shorthanded goals already in the AHL, and is always a threat to score shorthanded in almost every game I've seen so far. I'm just worried about who replaced Sykie if he's not back, and Parise? Zajac for a whole season can replace Sykie's scoring, and maybe more.

I hope he can stay healthy, but the injuries he had would hurt anybody. When he went into the boards like that, that would have put anybody out. I didn't see how sausage nose broke his wrist though.

Hey guys! Did you know that Henrique is a "Young Guy"?

He told me so himself!

[Saugus]

Well, he's not wrong, he is a young guy. And playing on a line with Parise and Kovy much of the year, he probably heard cracks about his age all the time. I'm not surprised he's conditioned to think that way now.

He'll wake up in a few years and wonder where the years went. I guess that's true of all of us though.

Ah jeez what are we going to do without him?

Oh that's right, no NHL right now.

Don't give a ****
