The other Avs news is that Brad May is out 4-6 months for shoulder surgery he suffered in the Avs / Wings game I was at. From TSN:
”After further medical testing and evaluation it was determined that surgery was necessary,” said Avalanche head athletic trainer Matthew Sokolowski. ”The procedure took place yesterday and we are anticipating a full recovery in 4-6 months.”
Just like the Avs, he has surgery, then announce his status. This is why it’s hard to be an Avs fan, and an Avs blogger. They treat news like this is a White House press briefing. Come on, guys, help us like you.
My question is, how did May get hurt? I was at that game, and I didn’t see him do anything. Maybe it was when he was patting himself on the back for winning his fight. He won’t be missed much, a monkey could fill his skates. An untrained monkey. But with the news of Steve Konowalchuk retiring today, there are more holes in the lineup than ever. But Brad May? Hell, bring back Jim Cummins, for all I care. And I hate (as much as I can hate someone I don’t know) Cummins.
