Sure looks like the Oilers rushed Khaira back. I thought it was weird that he came back so quickly after getting KO’d. What did he miss, 2 games? And then seeing his head spin again not even a month later disgusts me. Clearly the guy was not ready to risk another head injury. I’m really disappointed in the Oilers and all the people who let that happen. A player’s long term health was put at stake.

I don't agree with you at all. If he got hurt, missed a few days, then came back and got another, then I would agree. He got injured Mar 15. Over a month ago.


Last nights hit was... did he even contact the head? Did JJ’s head just bounce off the glass? I didn’t see it live, started watching in the 2nd and just saw the highlight of it but it didn’t seem like anything really. Then it was like his skate blade popped off and he couldn’t stand without help. Concussions linger, and can be misleading as you’ll have some good days. But the effects are long lasting and the slightest shake can send you back to square one.

He had his bell rung. I would argue he came back too quick also, but it’s so hard with concussions bc it’s a rollercoaster in recovery and often one is all it takes to have the effects last your lifetime.


Not that I saw. As a former rugby player though I'm unfortunately pretty familiar with concussions. A solid shot to the chest can still cause whiplash, which, if you've had a concussion recently, can rattle your brain just as bad as if you'd taken a head shot.
If it were my call I'd shut him down for at least the rest of the regular season. Nothing good can come from playing him earlier. It's too bad, as his game had really come around too.



It looked like whiplash to me, in the hit at least. From experience, whiplash can certainly mess you up right after it happens and going forward. I was briefly unconscious. I probably have 1 diagnosed and 2 or 3 undiagnosed concussions in the rearview, luckily for me with years in between. It's scary when you get physically sick after one and are noticeably off. Khaira didnt go down immediately but I don't know how. Knowing his recent history, it was a bit sickening to watch. I hope they just shut him down for as long as it takes.
