  1. Makes sense if he’s really hurt since it’s all speculation.

    If he’s not, then we are just protecting our investment ?

    Holy shit… the training staff finally grew a pair of balls and a medical license

    Whether he’s actually hurt or not, I have no problem letting him rest and potentially get healthier. We’re an extreme longshot for the playoffs (i.e., not gonna happen), so we might as well not risk injury and also give some other guys the chance to log minutes

    If this isn’t a brand new injury that occurred, this is straight up an indictment of the medical staff.

    There’s no excuse running our players into the ground for half assed effort.

  5. Keep him out the rest of the year if there’s any risk of aggravating something. If he needs surgery, don’t pull a Taylor hall and actually give him the surgery sooner rather than later

  6. Our medical staff needs to be investigated. It took until we were at a potential cap of 87 points for them to finally sit Jack.

  7. The kid is fragile…. I think this “upper body” thingie is gonna be with him his entire career.. jus sayin

  8. Is there a legit source for this? I can’t find anything

    Everybody says he’s playing hurt when he plays like ass. But then he looks great and crickets. Excuses for the golden boy. I think this is unrelated or re-aggravated.

  10. Should’ve been the case since last week. This medical staff and management is a joke. Forcing your franchise player to suit up when he wasn’t even at 70% (if that).

    Then you add in the quotes from Timo earlier today about him not being used properly all year. Wtf is going on with the organization?

    Was at the 1/6 game vs Chicago when Jack fell, guy next to me yelled “season over” the second he left the ice.

    In hindsight I truly think that was the exact moment the season ended. We had just jumped Washington for third in the metro the game prior and were firmly in a playoff spot.

    Wait: you all think they (medical staff) are “forcing” him to play lol?

    HE is the one who wants to play, regardless of what the medical staff wants, regardless of being injured or not.

    He’s just a fierce competitor, wants to play. Of course he wouldn’t take himself out unless he personally feels the need to sit out.

    He runs the show around here. Still not sure how anyone could STILL NOT see that there is a two-tiered player system here with no structure or accountability. All starts with ownership and their stupid analytics (and sales) teams, who have clear control of the GM, coaching & training/medical decisions
