Thanks! Yea a lifetime of immunosuppressants is definitely not ideal but way better than dealing with the ups and downs from day to dat y that come with a non functioning organ.

 

I’d be curious to hear about time it took to feel back to their old self pre diagnosis. I know everyones different but it would be great to know if its months or years

I asked him about this and he said it took him about a year to feel grounded after the adjustments in routine/lifestyle. The first 6 months were the most challenging because he had to stay on top of his meds and look out for specific things just in case. He mentioned that it was difficult at times to remember he had to take it easy for a while. He’s a pretty active guy so slowing down was an adjustment.

But yeah, he said a year. To get into the flow of “a new way of living.”

Can Laviolette coach the Raiders?

 

I can't even look at McDaniels anymore without getting the urge to projectile vomit.

They just fired McDaniels and the GM. This tweet hurts my soul smh

Hey all, was wondering if anyone in here has had a major organ transplant as it would be good to speak to someone who’s gone through something I’m about to go through.

 

Last August I developed blood clots in my liver central vein that essentially killed it with no hope of it recovering. Been managing with a lot of meds and doctors visits since then but It’s looking like I’m moving up the list and can be getting a new liver sometime within the next 6 months

 

so yea if anyone has gone through something similar I would love to chat about recovery and life after transplant.

 

Not me, but one of my closest friends had a kidney transplant. His quality of life increased a great deal after the procedure for numerous reasons. Dialysis took a huge toll on his body and he was pretty much fed up with it when he recieved the call. Off the top of my head the most challenging part has been the side effects from the immunosuppressants he has to take. There are also certain physical activities he's had to give up or really dial down (was an avid climber) but he's adapted. Some weight gain and a little hair loss are also things he's learning to manage.  If you have any particular questions you'd like to ask him, I can take it to him and get back to you.

I'm glad to hear you've got a good support system around you (really important) You've got this, dude. Keep us posted.

It's so quiet on here today you would think we lost last night.

There’s not much to complain about LOL

Rangers are adapting to a new system and the glimpses of what we’ve seen thus far gives fans a lot to be excited about. We can expect the process to be bumpy, but there’s lots of improvements to be happy about. 

I’m just happy to see the days of pond hockey are over. They still have tendencies to get too cute from time to time but a balance will come.

No excuse though we should be winning this game. We have way more talent. Just getting plain old outworked.

Yeah. This team has been guilty of relying more on talent then hard work plenty of nights. I think it’s something laviolette is going to work out of them. 

Check the other ref into the boards.. accidentally on purpose.

I mean, honestly, I was expecting an extremely rough start. This is a tired core who just went through trauma collapsing the way they did against the Devils, only got older, and are now facing their third coach in like four years? There's just no way in hell they're going to gel and look good until November, earliest.

Best case, I think they're .500 heading toward Thanksgiving, and can hopefully get it in gear right before so they don't end up trying to play catch-up.

should infract you for this depressing post smh

Punt Quick into orbit rfn.

I see the mods are in mid-season form already with how long it took for this thread to be made.

Is “fucking clown” allowed per board rules or?

No. And let’s not start with the bullshit. I’ll infract you all. That goes for you too @CCCP

Chytil looked pretty good. Someone needs to teach this guy how to win a faceoff. It's bad. 

 

Everyone else was kinda meh. Need a good showing from Jones here. Step it up oid. You're future here is seriously riding on you having a good pre season. 

 

When is Lafreniere going to play? Probably next game. I'm sure he'll come out and kick ass. This way he can show the coach he deserves top line minutes.  

What do you mean? He's playing right now.

What are some other theories as to why this would take this long? He can't think he's worth more, does anything else come to mind?

He hasn't posted on Instagram since July 3rd so hopefully he's too busy in the gym and at the rink to post pics or sign contracts. 

 

Another positive. Over the last three seasons:

In the gym he says

Punt boone and cashman into orbit. They’re out of ideas and this team needs new leadership.

Imagine he's holding out for more money?

 

I can't imagine a funnier scenario.

Would send him straight to Montreal. They probably added a workout clause and he’s refusing to sign. 
 

I will never root for this motherfucker. Not one single Kings player on that squad ever.
