He was the glue that held it together this season. A team is a team but missing a guy who’s on the upward like this has been pretty shitty.

His injury signaled the actual end of their playoff run. The Ottawa games were just confirmation.

how is his nickname not Moose? with a name like Rass moose in.

So proud of the progress he’s made as a player over these last couple years. If you told me 2 years ago that losing him would be a big blow to our playoff chances I’d be surprised to hear it, but thats the reality now. The dude matters to our team, no doubt about it

Mooooooooooooooooooooooooose

I hope he comes back stronger than ever. He still is unlikely to become the player you’d hope to be as a top 10 pick, but he’s showing he can potentially be far more than many (myself included) presumed he may be watching his first few years. There’s a ton of value for a team having a giant, workhorse, versatile, middle 6 C/Wing wearing on opponents for 15 mins per night and using his length to help the PK.

Don’t look him right in the eyes.

The team misses him more.

Moose is one of our most important forwards. I don’t care if the point totals show it or not
I hope Zadina can take the same step he took. Rasmussen went from being one of the whipping boys to a fan favorite over night.

I knew Ras was solid but DAMN he left an apparent hole in the roster. Luckily he’ll be fine for next year

Definitely agree. This kid has grown into his body and learned to throw it around. We lost him, and traded Bert and sunny. We essentially lost all of our grit overnight. But this kid is gonna be a net front presence and cause alot of teams headaches now that he’s gained some confidence.

Still miss bert. Hard to see him with a B on his chest

I mean, he’s hurt but he didn’t LEAVE.

Man knows how to stick to a New Years resolution.

Give him the A permanently. That would be fun

The thing about Ras, he’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes. When he comes at you it doesn’t seem to be livin’… until he hits you, and those black eyes roll over white.
Heal up and come back even better next season Moose.

Major props to Ras. He hasn’t gotten as much media attention as Raymond and Seider, but he is developing into a solid bottom 6 center. Hope he continues to improve.

Big Ras!! What exactly was his injury officially does anyone know did he break a kneecap on that shot?

Our serial killer/60 has plummeted since he’s been out

I miss Brett Lebda…… said no one.

He is so big for us I love ras. I would never have considered his jersey before 2021 but since that Xmas he has been so good he deserves it

Plays with the most heart out of anyone on the team except for maybe Larkin, really hope he continues to improve. And make the A permanent

Reddit was the 10th most used Social Media platform in 2021 [Social Media Use in 2021](https://www.pewresearch.org/internet/2021/04/07/social-media-use-in-2021/)
Crazy to think that with how popular this platform is, there’s a chance that Michael’s seen this and posts like it.
If you’re out there Ras, quick recovery. We’re excited for what the future holds.
