Forever_Habs10 Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Pronger is making progress with his injury. FLYERS' PRONGER HAS BLURRED VISION, RETURN DATE UNKNOWN PHILADELPHIA - Flyers defenceman Chris Pronger has blurred vision in his right eye and does not know when he'll return to the ice after being jabbed in the face. Pronger spoke Saturday night for the first time since Toronto's Mikhail Grabovski hit him just outside his right eye with a stick blade. Pronger says he feels lucky the injury was not worse because serious eye injuries have ended careers in the NHL. Pronger buried his face in his hands after taking a brutal blow to the outside of the right eye, hunched over and skated straight to the locker room. Teammates described hearing his agonizing screams on the ice. "Usually when you're head goes numb, it's a sign something's wrong," Pronger said. "I couldn't see, so I didn't know what was going on." Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren said after Pronger was injured the team captain would miss two to three weeks. Pronger says his vision is still a "little blurry" because of eyedrops and other medications needed to relieve swelling and pressure. Pronger has been on bed rest, but "gingerly" rode a stationary bike for 15 minutes on Saturday. He had a few stitches near his right eye, but otherwise looked fine. Pronger, an 18-year veteran, does not wear a visor. The protective piece is not required in the NHL, though the Flyers said Pronger would not be cleared to play unless he wears one. Pronger declined to say if he would wear one whenever he comes back. "You don't know want to know my stance," he said. "That's for another day."

Forever_Habs10 Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 From NHL.com - Pronger has begun skating with still no timetable for his return. Wednesday return for Pronger a possibility Flyers captain Chris Pronger completed his second straight full practice Tuesday morning and left for Tampa Bay with his teammates later in the afternoon. He again skated with Matt Carle, his normal defense partner, and participated in all of the power-play drills. "He looks good on the ice," Flyers coach Peter Laviolette said. The next question is how he will feel off of it later Tuesday when Pronger has had time to relax from the hard practice. That will help determine if he'll be able to return to the Flyers lineup Wednesday in Tampa Bay or if he'll miss his seventh straight game after being struck in the right eye by the stick of Toronto forward Mikhail Grabovski's during a game on Oct. 24. "I couldn't tell you," Pronger said in response to a question about how his recovery is going. "I've got to see how I feel after today. I didn't feel too hot (Monday), so we'll see how I feel today after a pretty good skate." Pronger likely won't make any decision until after he takes the morning skate Wednesday. It appears that conditioning is all that's holding him back now. His eye doesn't seem to be a problem. "It's been a little suspect after the last couple days," Pronger said of his conditioning. "Again, you don't realize how quickly you can lose it when you've done nothing for seven days, you're bedridden for four of them -- the joints need to be moving. Sometimes while I feel like I'm 25, when you're laying decrepit in your bed for four or five days, you get a little tight and stiff." The rest of the Flyers aren't worried. They've skated with Pronger the last couple of days and to them it looks like nothing is different. "He looks in great shape," Claude Giroux said. "He's had two or three practices with us and he's moving well. He's a smart player, so if he's in good shape he'll be fine out there. He knows what it takes and how to get ready for a game. He'll be fine." Whenever Pronger does return, he will be wearing a visor. His ophthalmologist, Dr. Stephen Goldman, wouldn't clear him to play unless he agreed to wear one for at least the time being. Pronger still is adjusting to the shield that now covers his face. "Well, I've played with guys that have never worn one then late in the career have had to throw one on because of injury or what have you," he said. "When you have to wear one, you have to wear it and you just get used to it. You don't really have a choice." He said the colder temperature inside the Flyers' practice facility hasn't allowed him to grasp what it will be like to wear one in a big arena such as the St. Pete Times Forum, which seats 19,758 for Lightning games. "It's different because this rink is a lot colder than the rinks we're going to play in, so it will fog up a lot more in the game rinks," Pronger said. "Obviously when you start hitting and stuff, sweat is going to fly and all the things that guys deal with shift in, shift out. After pretty much every shift you have to wipe the visor down to keep it clean. It's just a matter of keeping it clean." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habby67 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 So what's next? Are they going to take their protest to Tampa's 1-3-1 defensive style to Wall Street? I agree it may not be an exciting style of play but its Philly's job to figure out a way around it. What is Tampa to do? Drop all 5 players in the defensive zone so the bigger Flyers players can cycle and pound them to death? Sure, we'll sit back and give you a 30 ft advantage lol. It's like Tampa asking Brygalov to stand outside his net so they can have a better chance to score. Now I have seen everything!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
