Most of them should which is very good news. They just need to make it through this next month healthy.

I'm most concerned with Drury. That is someone who needs to be playing.

News article today says Drury is feeling much better and hasn't had any headaches. Good signs.

Also pointed out that Stafford has five points in four games (plus the shootout winner) :up:

Nice!

I was hoping that any concussion like symptions weren't serious. That is really good news.

Drury is lying there is no way in hell that hit didn't give him a concusion. He has had them in the past too. But he's a gamer i wouldn't be shocked if he was being less then honest.

When it comes to a concussion they never want to rush a player and I won't believe he is better until he is out on the ice donning a Sabres uniform and in the lineup...I remember last year there was speculation by some that Connolly could be back for game 7 against Carolina or maybe in the Stanley Cup finals but he has yet to put on the sweater so you never know with concussions...We really need Drury too...Sure would be nice to have Max and the rest of them back on the ice for the playoffs...

Getting Spacek and Jiri back by the end of the week would be great. Paestch back to forward and Kaleta and Mancari back to Rochester!

The fact that he isn't having headaches is extemely important in their evaluation of him and very good news that he probably has no concussion. They have ways of screening players and can tell if they have that type of thing going on whether or not the player is being upfront about it or not. Drury doesn't strike me as a player that would be less than forthright about something like that anyways.

don't get me wrong, Kaleta needs more tuning before he's ready to stay in the NHL but I've been rather happy with the way he's played so far...... he reminds me alot of Rayzor with his style of play....

From My Understanding from Press Conferences and Facts, He MIGHT have concussion, but the facts and the interviews lead me to believe his headaches and stuff are from having a GASH on his upper forehead, since these symptoms arose AFTER the pain pain reliever/numbing agent that was injected so they can stitch the wound wore off, better to be on the safe side though.

I like kaleta staying up here. he hits like a wrecking ball and gives 110% every shift he's out there. so if he stayed i dont think it would be a step in the wrong direction whatsoever. At least until we get some hekp from injured players that is.
