You could tell from the tape he was gonna be gone for the long run.
I’d be surprised if he doesn’t need surgery.
Welp, that’s Raymond’s music.
Huge loss. Really hope it isn’t for too long. Get better quick Ras!
This is my least favorite thing. If I ever see that puck it’s on sight.
That’s less than ideal
Damn this sucks. It’s hard to replace someone whose 6’6”. Might have to bring up the SodaStream and it will have to be extra carbonated.
I swear everyone on the team needs beef their shin pads. Can’t believe Seider has escaped serious injury the amount of times he’s gone down taking a block. Feels like this team gets absolutely battered by blocked shots.
Fuck my life
Either cracked the knee cap or a bad bone bruise.
Neither heals quickly. Fn sucks
Serial killer/60 took a massive hit. But in all seriousness hope Ras heals up as best he can.
Absolutely sucks, he was playing his dick off
Was at the game. That blocked shot was WICKED. You could tell immediately things were not good.
RIP 😢😢😢😢 Hope he gets healthy soon!
Looks like Sodorblom’s gonna be called up here tomorrow
Poor Ras. Was having a heck of a season.
This is a major loss to our playoff push.

Damn.
Silver lining? We’re relatively healthy. And we’re deeper than recent seasons. Heal fast Ras! Sorry too. That looked painful af.
That looked terrible, he looked in so much pain! He really turned a corner this year, I hope he’s a part of this team for years to come.
Dammit. Ras has been great this year.
Only positive is this should open up more ice time for the zadina, vrana, berg rotation.
Lalonde needs to seriously rethink about cutting the style of play we run a little bit. We overdo it with the blocked shots, and it’s led to a huge amount of injuries this year. It’s good to block shots but not at this rate.
Is it time to look at making the puck slightly softer? the amount of broken bones is absurd. I sure they can figure out how to keep most of the puck feel and speed wile limiting impact damage.
FUCK. FuckityFuckFuck.
Rest up Ras. I’d rather have him back 100% than coming back too early just to make an arbitrary playoff push.
I’d be out indefinitely too if I was hit in that sensitive area. It’s a burden he has to bear for being hung like a horse. /s
Edit: First sentence is sarcasm. Second, is a statement of fact.
SON OF A BITCH!!!!!😢🙏
This season really has been the definition of « next man up »
No matter the injury, I hope Ras has a speedy recovery!
Well at least it’s not day to day that turns into all season
Perhaps we need a slight adjustment to the “let players rip shots from the blue line and let our non-goalies block the shots” strategy
Idk the overall numbers but I know the past couple games we’ve had more than double the amount of blocked shots.
And how many injuries have we had because of blocked shots this season?
Dang… Ras, that absolutely dead eyed psycho, has put everything on the line for this team and we the fan base are loving it.
Heal fast, heal right, and we will see you back out there pissing other teams off soon.
Awww mannn, this sucks.
Is there hope we can get him back for the playoffs?
Bert (twice), Zadina, now Ras as of tomorrow will have missed a significant number of games this season due to injuries from blocks. That’s some bad luck there.
Does this mean we’re bringing up apple ciderbum from GR
We can’t have anything nice.
This team does too much shot blocking and it annoys me to no end. 95% of the time its better to get the fuck out of the way and let the goalie see it. Goalies are equipped to take hits from a 90mph hunk of frozen rubber; skaters are not. Save the blocking for specific circumstances where it’s absolutely necessary to prevent a goal. I don’t have numbers, but we seem to have been having an unnatural amount of injuries from this.
Guys are getting hurt to stop shots that the goalie is able to save without getting hurt. While simultaneously making it harder to save the shots that get through.
This is going to make Mickey sad.
This sucks he is key to what we’ve been doing
God. Damnit.
Heal up soon
