Horton Has Severe Concussion; Montreal Doctors Say He'll Be Tweeting in No Time

caption

So Nathan Horton lucked out somewhat as he suffered a severe concussion after getting illegally annihilated by Canucks Dman Aaron Rome.  It could've been a lot worse.

If it's anything like Max Pacioretty's severe concussion, Horton should be going to see Hall Pass and Tweeting in no time.  Seriously though, he's out for the playoffs.  Hopefully he'll be ready to go next year.

But that was honestly the scariest hit I've ever seen.  It looked like Horton instantly turned into a vegetable.  But it's okay because Aaron Rome texted him today to tell him he's sorry.

I'm no social scientist, but I'm expecting a big fuck you from Nathan Horton.

Just like the Matt Cooke - Marc Savard hit, I'm sure Horton would get more joy out of seeing Aaron Rome walk his fat ass into oncoming traffic (Billy Madison reference, I can quote that shit all day) than accepting his apology.

So fuck 'em.  Gotta move on.

I expect the lines to look like this tomorrow:

Shawn Thornton - Michael Ryder - Milan Lucic

Patrice Bergeron - David Krejci - Milan Lucic

Nah, just fucking with you.

Side note - have you ever noticed that an unusual amount of people suck at projecting realistic line combos?

It's really weird.  I'd say more people suck at it than don't suck at it.

Anyways, I'm like 90% sure these will be the lines:

Milan Lucic - David Krejci - Michael Ryder

Brad Marchmand - Patrice Bergeron - Mark Recchi

Rich Peverley - Chris Kelly - Tyler Seguin

Danny Paille - Greg Campbell - Shawn Thornton

I'm expecting Claude to kind of half shift Pev and Ryder on that first line right wing spot similar to how he half shifted Pev and Recchi on the 2nd line.


Thanks to Rear Admiral for the pic.
