Injury Report: Anton Volchenkov

[MatthewT]

not coming back tonight, will have to wait for updates

[OmniSens]

Great....Left Tonights game vs Panthers after getting hit by Sutton.

Looked seriously hurt, neck area. Hope he's back soon.

[YellowPrelude]

Not good, hope he doesn't miss too much time. He's been a BEAST lately.

[Alfredsson11]

To me it didn`t look like there was any physical type of injury if that makes sense.

He wasn`t expecting the hit, obviously, so I think he was just shaken up, and a bit stiff because of it.

[danishh]

Upper body injury, left the game, no updates on how long he is expected to be out beyond this game.

time for Kuba to get off his 2 week vacation

No thanks

[Kekumba]

Interested to hear what it is. I didn't think it looked that bad, but I'd have to see the replay again.

He's at the hospital according to Gary Galley. Losing ATrain for more than a few games could prove costly.

[Juvenators]

When I heard Gary say Anton was at the hospital I almost cringed. Hopefully he's alright, looked an awful lot like his neck was the issue at first... Hopefully not the case.

Make your way back soon Anton, we need you.

[Highbrow]

Hospital is hopefully just cautionary. We need him back in the line-up ASAP.

[Fenix Rises 2026]

At least he's UFA!

[Ghost in the Shell]

Clouston says he is ok!

Well if one of my fellow co-workers took him by Ambulance, I'll try and dig up some inside info on him on Monday.

Great news!

[The Waffler]

He got a puck in the face last night, and tonight he got Sutton's shoulder.

Poor lil feller

[Icelevel]

Clouston says, "upper body. he'll be ok."

Hope he's ok. He could take a break now if he needs it but the Sens really need Volch for the playoffs if they hope to go far.

A late season injury might be a risk players take when they are near the end of a contract. Wonder how long their insurance would cover them?

[Wham City]

At least he has a sense of humour about it, always a good sign.

Sutton on hitting Volchenkov. "Unfortunately I caught more of Volchy than Weiss. I apologized to him and he was like "It's a great hit."

[OmniSens]

CBC "Clouston says he expects him to be okay"

Bahaha. These Russian guys sure are witty

[ben3001]

Let's hope he comes back 100%
We definitely will need him against a team like Washington

[The Expert]

Fantastic news.

[The King of Town]

Clouston also said Kuba and Michalek would be okay.

I don't know if he just lacks experience or if he's an optimist, but he seems to be way off on his injury prognostications.

[Kickabrat]

Gotta get rid of these hits to the head. Suspend Sutton for 5 games! Somebody remind him he plays for us now.

Smart coach. Keeps the opposition guessing until game time.
