DrJockitch Posted May 20 Posted May 20 Blood clotting issue is so non-specific. Not sure tells us anything. Quote

Lack of clotting would also be critical, as in you can't stop bleeding with any sort of significant cut. But I feel like thin blood would be an issue they have known about for a long time. That would have been known for a long time, or change rapidly from medication, or drug/alcohol use. “It’s hard to comment without knowing a lot more details,” Dr. Conway told Postmedia on Sunday of the Boeser blood-clotting issue. “But, in general terms, what may happen is if you have an injury to an arm or legs, with legs being more common and swelling around that area, it would cause a blood clot to occur in a vein. “And once that has occurred, then the risk that it runs is that a clot might come loose and migrate back to the central part of the body and cause a clot in the lungs. And that’s potentially life threatening. It’s called a pulmonary embolism.” Flying can also contribute to blood clotting because the Canucks regularly charter to game locations. “Absolutely,” said Dr. Conway. “What happens is the blood pools in your legs and, as it pools, it may not be returning to the heart in a normal and usual way. The leg swells, there is a blood clot that occurs in the leg. And once that occurs, there is a risk of it spreading and breaking off and spreading the the lungs. “That’s what you’re most worried about.” Edited May 20 by Drive-By Body Pierce 1 Quote
Breadnbutta Posted May 20 Posted May 20 I hope for Brocks sake and the teams sake that this is precautionary and that we win tomorrow for him and in the coming days he gets some good news and it's not serious and he makes it back to score the game winning goal in the Stanley cup final. 2 2 Quote

CaknucklePuck Posted May 20 Posted May 20 Speedy Recovery to the Brockstar, I hope the team finds an extra gear to win it for the Fans and Boeser! We're going to need a spectacular game to compete. Quote
Popular Post Pirata Morado Posted May 20 Popular Post Posted May 20 Sad to hear these. I just hope he and the team sue the league for pushing that stupid vax mandate that has so many people suffering from these blood clots. 6 1 7 1 1 2 4 Quote
gwarrior Posted May 20 Posted May 20 So, now is it time to see what Lekerimakki has? I hope Brock is going to be ok, and he can continue his career. 1 Quote
gwarrior Posted May 20 Posted May 20 What are the options? Lekerimakki? Bains? Raty? Man, this just adds drama to game 7. Now we don't even have the option of putting the lotto line together. But, next man up!!!! Let's do this!!!!! 1 Quote

Locke Lamora Posted May 20 Posted May 20 I know it’s not going to happen but part of me would love for Tocchet to swing big and put Lekk in. I’ve always viewed him as Brock’s likely successor as the number 1 right handed snipe show. And yeah, again, I know its not happening. Quote
