​ THE INJURIES IN THE ROUGH GAME OF HOCKEY!
== In the NHL many injuries occur many times. Throughout fights and the checking that happened all the time in the games. For example on 12/07/09 Wade Redden from the New York Rangers got a shoulder injury, but is coming back in about 3 days. Paul Mara from the Montreal Canadians got injured also on 12/07/09. It was an upper body injury and he is expected to return on December the 8th. On Colorado their starter goalie got a neck injury causing him to be out for about 3days. ==

Good start with some examples. What are some of the most common injuries? Do the rules of the game allow more injuries to happen or do they prevent more injuries from happening? Work some background facts into your post. Ms. Darga

I think that fighting is a part of hockey, and it deffinantley should be allowed. Hockey wouldn's be intrusting without watching people get clobbered in the face and getting a bloody nose. It's just part of the game. -Ryan

I would say that the most common injury in hockey is a knee or something that has to do with the lowerbody. There are many rules that prevent injuries but there is not a rule against checking and thats when most people get hurt. There is also no rule on fighting in the NHL and that is another main reason why people get injuries in the game. Some examples of what i have just said is Mike Van Ryn got a knee injury and he is out for the rest of the season! The was not because of a fight it was because he got hit the wrong way during a game. Another example of the lowerbody is Chris Kunitz got a lowerbody injury, but he will only be out untill early December. Thank you so much for giving me more ideas for my posts! **

**Hey Kendra I love your information so far. I would like to be updated on the Red Wings wins and losses, as well as our injuries and inside rumours about the players. Love the topic, can't wait till your next post! -Maddy**

Hockey players are very tough, I've heard from some other people that hockey players actually like pain and pressure, but this is just word of mouth so it may not be true. But hockey players certainly do get up fast when they get hurt, I don't think it could possibly be good for them, but I guess if their doctor says it's ok I guess they go right back. In my new blog I will be talking about lots of hockey things to start I will talk about you home team The Detroit Red W ​ ings! Some people have been telling me that they want to hear more things about the Red Wings, well here it is. They played the Blues yesturday on December 9th. The Red Wings played a strong game for the most part, but went down early in the first and just could not pick it back up again. The Red Wings got many opertunities to score but the Blues goalie was on top of his game for the whole time. The Blues got a penelty early second period, but again thier goalie was there for the team stopping four shots that, if the Red Wings capitalized, could have been goals for the Wings. In the end the Red Wings never picked it up and they lost 4-3 to the Blues.

I also like hockey. But I would like to know if any of the players stepped up or who you think did the best. Except for that I really liked your blog. I would like to hear more things about the NHL and the Red Wings. -Nathan

Written by: cwconnor (Connor) 1/8/10 Kendra; you do realize that in the Detroit Free Press there are current injury reports. The newspaper also covers interviews regarding the injuries by players and coaches. They are completely relevant to what you are trying to explain in your posts. So far, all I’ve noticed was a just the injury reports not the whole cover story and opinions involved in the whole process. Also, regarding the injuries, it would make the post more complete if you told us weather or not the person who injured the player is suspended and if he has any thoughts on why this occurred. I appreciate the fact that you are the only one on the Wiki spaces, Intense Keyboarding group that stuck with the NHL as their key topic. If you just added more detail and the full report form many places, not just the Detroit Free Press or cbssports.com, I think you will be successful and many people will enjoy reading your posts knowing that they are getting the full rounded topic covered by many reliable places.
