Seguin 'can't picture' missing Game 1 of playoffs

Dallas Stars center Tyler Seguin is on the road to recovery, and continues to provide photos to prove it.

After undergoing a procedure to mend a rather gruesome Achilles injury, Seguin addressed the media for the first time since the announcement was made that he'll be out of the lineup for three-to-four weeks.

"Yesterday was a little bit better than today," he told reporters. "(I'm) starting to get a bit more feeling in the foot today after the surgery."

Seguin admitted he was concerned following the incident, especially as he thought of scenes from the horror flick "Hostel." He considers himself both unlucky that it happened and lucky that it wasn't worse. While there's no firm timeline for his return to the lineup, he has an idea of when he'll be back.

"I can't really picture myself missing Game 1 (of the playoffs)," he said. "Even if I come back for the last game of the regular season, that'd be quite the goal for me. There's a long way to go until then and I'm looking forward to getting better."

Seguin later shared a visual update on his Achilles injury, which he said looks a bit more gnarly than the first:

Look for Seguin to wear thicker socks upon his return.
