Just How Long could Roberto Be Out?
Dec 15th, 2007
Yes, it is sad, but the cold hard truth is that we are just not a good enough team (at least, not using our current strategy) to win a lot without Roberto Luongo.
The rumors are flying on the internet forums and in the sports pages; Some sources are saying Roberto could be on the ice as soon as the game tonight against Edmonton, while there are “insiders” on the Canuck’s forum saying they “heard from someone” that he could be out as long as four weeks.
One thing is now certain, however: He was obviously hurt much worse than we thought. What was supposedly a bruised rib has now turned into something so serious he has trouble breathing… Reportedly, it is his decision to still travel with the team, as he was told to go home and rest.
Hurry up and get better, Roberto. We need you!
