Re: Vanek has a subluxation

it's pretty obvious he's been playing injured, whenever he has a rough stretch like he does now it comes out in the offseason that he was playing through something.

he's a tough guy for sticking it out but i'd rather they just get him completely healthy so he can be dominant again.
