Ya it is a big question!! If the Denver series comes and goes, my thoughts he won't make it back this year at all.

Knight got injured at home and the injury was shown on TV and written about in the paper as well as talked about in the post game show and pre game show Saturday night.
This is a public forum and the right to criticize is reserved by all it's members, and encouraged especially by dirty.

Thank you for your information. All I've been able to check is here and fightingsioux.com and neither was giving much info about what happened.

I realize that this is a public forum, and feel free to criticize me all you want since that's mainly what people do to me on here anyways, but I only asked a question. I'm out of town and did not know.

I now see how curiosity killed the cat

That McKeen's article was brutal. Parks part was rather benign but the questions were awful and the follow ups by the interviewer made me throw up a little in my mouth.

Happy's hatred, which lakes any civility whatsoever, is targeted at sue fans,as well as a bunch of goons.

The info was given at least twice on here (on the scores thread and in the MSUM/UND series thread).
Knight was battling for the hattrick with less than a minute to go in the game, he lost his skate edge going in on the goalie and smashed into the goal post. He was limping after the game but said he would be ok. They must have checked into it further and found that not to be the case. Out 4-6 weeks with a high ankle sprain.

I just saw on Yahoo Fantasy Golf that the #1 team is UND Sioux! - Way to represent!

No clue who it is, but pretty sweet to see the Sioux name up there.

Re: UND 2009-2010 Season Thread - The Lawnmower and Cookie tossing edition!

High ankle sprains blow. I have heard a few players say they would rather have a broken leg than a bad high ankle sprain. They have a way of bothering you for years.

Hopefully, it isn't anywhere near being that serious. The 4-6 week timeline shows that it probably isn't.

Triple post.

This was on INCH:

First, it’s looking more and more like star defenseman Chay Genoway may have played his last shift of the season on Nov. 13 when a check from behind versus St. Cloud State led to a concussion and many lingering side effects. His return to the ice is nowhere in site, and sources close to the team tell INCH that the prospect of a medical redshirt is being discussed.

Not good news, but not entirely surprising if it happens.
If he does apply for a redshirt, this would be the stacked blueline next year:

Genoway, Sr
LaPoint, Sr
Marto, Sr
Blood, Jr
Fienhage, Jr
Gleason, So
MacWilliam, So
Mattson, Fr
Forbort, Fr

Ouch, which 3 sit every night from that group?
I realize I left out Hill, but he would be the odd man out already given the above logjam.

Yeah, I can see where that is going to be a bit of a problem. I hope it doesn't lead to recruiting repercussions.

I have to believe the staff, a couple of years ago, was counting on Genoway graduating this year and another player, probably LaPoint, developing to a level where he'd be gone after his junior season. Injuries, probably more than anything, have hampered this a bit.

Re: UND 2009-2010 Season Thread - The Lawnmower and Cookie tossing edition!

Do we have a time frame that Genoway will or will not play again this year!! If he doesn't play again this year do we think he comes back on medical red shirt for his senior year +1 ??? thoughts

He's a great hockey player, and from what I hear from others around the league, a first rate person as well.

Head injuries are very, very serious matters, and there is a lot of medical evidence in recent years that suggests longer recovery periods are needed than previously employed. If he gets a red shirt, it's probably in his best interests as a player and as a human being to make sure he's fully healed before coming back. The last thing he needs is to come back too early and get hurt again, which could have lifetime consequences. I am sure Hakstol, his staff and the team docs there are going to do what is in the players' best interests.

Yeah, a redshirt would certainly throw a monkey wrench into that, but the coaches could work around it.
I would guess if he redshirts that a current recruit would stay in the USHL for another season (probably Mattson?) and then a current player potentially leaves early (maybe Fienhage since he was the odd man out prior to Genoway's injury).
Could be an interesting offseason with that situation developing.
