jonasTSN1050: Initial prognosis on Polak is four weeks. He has a strain in his left knee.

jonasTSN1050: Leafs are waiting on definitive timeline for Polak. Still waiting to see what degree of strain.

Tough time to lose him too with a very difficult December coming up.

On the bright side the Leafs are replacing him with a former top pairing defenseman in Holzer.

As first reported by freer in the GDT, Komrade Komarov is now officially konkussed:

Toronto Maple Leafs forward Leo Komarov will not play against the Dallas Stars on Tuesday night as he continues to recover from a concussion that he suffered over the weekend.

Carlyle says it wasn't a setback for Komarov. Says he wasn't feeling well enough and was kept off the ice.

He was well enough to skate before but wasn't now. Sounds like a setback to me. Either way, it's doubtful he plays tomorrow night.

Darn was hoping he would put  Burrow through the boards.

Nope. He's just feeling worse than he did yesterday. It's not backwards progress at all. Nothing to see here. ;D

The lying and secrecy regarding concussions annoys me.

Doesn't really matter to me tbh as long as they get proper care.

When a player is on IR, how long does he need to be out.

From NHL.com
Injured Reserve List
In the event that a player is injured and a Club wishes to place him on the Injured Reserve List the Club must follow these procedures:
A club may place a player on the Injured Reserve List if such player is injured, disabled or ill and unable to perform his duties as a hockey player after having passed the Club's initial physical examination in that season.
A player who has an injury that renders him physically unable to play for a minumum of seven days after that date of the injury can be placed on the Club's Injured Reserve List. Once a player is placed on the list, the Club may replace said player on its NHL roster with another player. All determinations that a player has suffered an injury warranting injured reserve status must be made by the Club's medical staff and in accordance with the Club's medical standards.
A player placed on Injured Reserve is ineligible to compete in NHL games for a period of not less than seven days.
Players on Injured Reserve may attend Club meetings and meals, travel with the Club and participate in practice sessions.

Thanks very much
 
A not-so-encouraging update on Komarov:

In a phone interview on Monday, Komarov?s agent said the Toronto Maple Leafs forward is still suffering from headaches that have been present ever since he was blindsided with an elbow to the head from Alex Ovechkin on Nov. 29. For that reason, he should never have been on the ice to begin with.

?You have to trust your instincts. If you feel something is wrong, then something is wrong,? Komarov?s agent, Mark Gandler, said. ?In my mind, he shouldn?t have practised. He shouldn?t have been on the ice that day.?

...

Days later, Komarov passed his baseline test and other concussion protocol. When the Leafs held him out of the lineup, it was merely described as a precaution. But behind the scenes, Gandler said something was not right.

Though Komarov was technically cleared to skate ? he had exerted himself on a bike earlier that morning without any issue, according to the team ? symptoms had not completely gone away. After the skate last Thursday, Komarov reported to a Leafs trainer that he experienced concussion-type symptoms and his injury was officially listed as a concussion.

Since then, the team said on Monday that he has been told not to work out, ride the bike or exert himself.

?I told Leo, you must report if you have a headache. You must not go on the ice,? said Gandler, who said the Leafs did not pressure Komarov to return. ?They cannot see. You have to tell them. And he said ?I have a headache.? There?s no problem here with Toronto. Where?s there?s a problem is with these tests, which are completely useless.?

This is the pitts, we need the Komrade back but only when he is well enough, they continue to win without him so get him well for the playoffs when we need his assets.
 
dalter: Roman Polak, among players taking part in Leafs practice today. Eligible to return to the lineup tomorrow should they choose to use him.

jonasTSN1050: Now 17 days since Leo Komarov suffered a concussion. He is not practicing again today.

jonasTSN1050: Actually, 19 days since the concussion. My mistake. Point is, no return in sight yet for Komarov. He'll miss his 9th straight game tomorrow.
