Yep they are going back to Miami Monday now at least. 

After watching the series between them neither would have the advantage over the Canes IMO,  For TB they can only score on the PP (strength agaist strength) and Hedman and Vasilevsky have both been very shaky.

FL has a horrible PP and PK with an awful defense and two shaky goalies.

Holy poo! I just saw there video on Twitter. What the fug were the trainers doing sitting him up on the ice? That almost looked more dangerous than the hit itself.

Taraves was trying to sit up on his own but had minimal control over his faculties in this instance. That’s why the trainer immediately grabbed his neck from both sides. At least that showed us he had full control of all his limbs even if he was completely discombobulated.  
 

There is no reason for a trainer to intentionally sit him up. The most is rolling him on his back in case of seizure.

The clip I saw started in the middle of it all. That makes way more sense, that he tried to sit up himself. It still seems wild that they don't have neck collars available on the ice for situations like this. Seeing his head fall back limp the way it did was scary to see after a possible spine injury. 

Luckily, it appears he somehow got away with only a concussion from that collision!

"Only a concussion" the way he was on the ice reminded me painfully of the way Luke Kuechly was after his concussion vs the saints.

Yeah, scary poo! Wasn't trying to minimize the severity of his injuries. Concussions are no joke. But, the way he went limp on the ice, it looked like he might never walk again.

True, sorry I didn't think you were I just meant it was a heck of a concussion the career ending type.

No worries. I didn't take it that way.  Just wanted to clarify what I meant bc it could have come off pretty callous the way I worded it.

Prayers up!

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
