Damn that sucks. Well if Henrique can keep up his level of play, and Zjac stays on schedule we should be good up the middle without him for a while.

Cant wait to see Big Z back on the ice, and Im sure the good Captain is anxious for his return as well

If Henrique is better than Yayo, why is Yayo our 2nd line center?

I don't think there is anyway Josefson will be over Henrique now.

Henrique has shown great offense while being a great PKer.

Zajac, Elias, Henrique. Set.

Better yet, Elias can go back to wing!

Zajac - Henrique - Josefson - Carter looks pretty damn good, in my opinion.

i'm not really concerned about when josefson comes back. henrique has shown more than he has so there aren't any worries about getting him back asap. i'm not sure who we will send down if josefson comes back before seasons end though.

Josefson's return is so far off, there really isn't any point in working out what the lines will be then. The team could look very different at that point, and the chemistry and the lines will definitely have been changed by that time.

So this means he'll be back shortly - but when?

Middle of December, at best.

Yeah, he's not gonna be rushed back while the team is winning a majority of games. I'd say 3 weeks from now at the absolute minimum.

Oroku Saki · 11-26-2011, 11:31 AM

So, so sweet.

**Rhodes 81** · 11-26-2011, 11:47 AM

yayo should probably just spend the rest of the year in the ahl whenever he does come back. unless of course one of our other centers is injured at that point. sure, you could have either him or another guy play wing, but we're pretty deep there as well when everyone is healthy and playing well. as long as henrique keeps his play up, it's his spot to lose.

Richer's Ghost · 11-26-2011, 12:05 PM

His updates can go back to the team info thread now. He's skating, he's healed obviously - just a matter of when.
