Parker Says Injury Better Long Term Than High Ankle Sprain 
Corey Trivino may be out for the rest of the season, but the broken fibula he suffered against Maine on Saturday is actually a better scenario for Trivino long term than the ankle sprain that the team originally believed he he had.

Parker told the Daily Free Press that “There should be no long-term ramifications.  That bone heals easiliy –– it’s a non-weight bearing bone. It’s almost better than the high-ankle sprain except that he’ll be out the whole year. The injury itself will heal better than a nagging high-ankle sprain.”

Trivino Has 15 Points for the Terriers This Season

Also interesting is that Parker did not rule out the possibility of a return for his centerman if the Terriers could find a way to make a very deep run into the playoffs.

“We’re probably going to be missing him for the whole year,” Parker told the FreeP. “If we ever got to Detroit [for the Frozen Four], he might be able to come back for that.”

One more reason to hope for a repeat, folks.  A triumphant Corey Trivino return in dramatic fashion in April.

There is still no official word on how Jackie will shake up the lines on Friday in Providence to fill the gap on his first line left by the injury.  Kevin Gilroy is a likely candidate to fill Trivino's spot in the group of 12 forwards.
