Flyers G Michael Lieghton out 1 month with bulging disc in back. Can't be good.

Yea....1 month....I am presently dealing with a bulging disc and that is if he is lucky it will be one month. I have been dealing with one for near 6 months. Not fun. can be serious and require surgery. I am going to pick up Boucher right now...And hello Bobkov, welcome to the flyers..

Ya man, I've had back problems almost my whole life.. not fun at all. The main reason I stopped playing competitive sports!

lol it looks like we have a little community.. my pathetic starting hockey career was crushed by a herniated disk in my lower back.

Btw Kyle, a bulging disk requiring surgery it's news to me.. but yeah, it could lead to surgery eventually after degenerating into hernia.. and sometimes the difference it's not that clear to begin with, but i think when that requires surgery is still more a case of misdiagnosed hernia.

Anyway, my hernia never required surgery despite being expelled and protruded, but again..i didn't HAVE to (try to) play hockey and quitted with tennis as well..

LOL, yep, old as the hills we all are...Well i see the surgeon on the 15th. I will know more then. Last time i had MRI it was bulged, so i dont know if i will be at that point or not. Mine is the last one, L5-S1. Such a bad time. No hockey, Tennis, V-ball, skiing...etc. Even golf is a bad time now. Its like i have a blade in my hip and quad and someone is turning it regularly. some fun. I am on strait morphine and i hate it. I am asking for weed pills next appointment. Did all the physio and shit, no luck. how the fuck do you fix it? fill me in if you are better from it...

Very addictive.. but pain sucks lol

I'm with you, morphine is shit. Ask for demoral (better then sex!!)

[armandtanzarian]

Man, I have a feeling if we were to be in a closer proximity, we could be very bad influences on each other.

Stajan's out. Ollie left the game with an injury.

CBS was talking about Moss moving back to C.

[bills09]

Couturier to Calgary

[bills09]

kinda funny their top 2 centers could end up Backlund and Mitch Wahl

[Nick]

Oli is 100% fine it was pre-season and they wanted to triple check.

But...but... Moss's value!

Hahah it wouldn't have changed anyway regardless of position, Calgary doesn't score goals...but I realize that was your point.

I think that will change this year. Hagman will bounce back and Iggy and his new/old linemates will be much better. Bourque will stay consistent.
