Doesn’t look good for Smyth (Denver Post)

[rinkrat]

It doesn’t look good on either Smitty or Svats coming back before the end of the regular season.
The Avs are going to announce soon that, while Smyth’s head and neck checked out well on CAT scans, the left shoulder is likely separated - but things will be officially known in the coming days.
Translation: he’s got a shoulder separation, at least. I’ve also been hearing about a possible broken collarbone - the most commonly broken bone in the human body.

Before the official news hits…. : All Things Avs

That hit was ugly (but clean). I hope Smyth recovers. Too bad they can't come up with a better design for that spot.

thats karma right there. It suck that he is really hurt but what comes around goes around

[RockPile]

Good thing it's not his head or neck. Shoulder/collar bone should be less damaging to his career.

Glad he didn't die or LGK would get sued for premeditated murder with the KILL JACK KILL shirts.

Watch them try to injure one of our players again next season.

The reason this will continue into next year is Rob Blake. JMFJ dropped his gloves and was ready to go untill Blake went Big Brother and stepped in. Lappy VS JMFJ ends it right there. Cryin' ryan = Lappys hit on Frolov in the same spot earlier in that game. Svatos = Labs . Good for them. That being said, if Ryans helmet had stayed on, seperated shoulder back for the playoffs o.k. Never want to see a head injury like that.
