Don’t know, but they were playing Philly. Sounds like he only played the first period of the game.

Here is all NHL.com has to say about it:

The Rangers could be facing even more trouble if they are forced to play without top-line forward Marian Gaborik. The speedy right wing didn’t play after the first period Sunday. No reason was immediately given.

If that’s true, and it’s a concussion, then we’re close to a trend of teams maybe being too late to evaluate head injuries. Er, I’m jumping to conclusions, but it seems to warrant a very close look.

2, the issue is 1.

The issue is supposedly about the television coverage as to why no Canadian based teams are in the “Winter Classic”

How about 1 American/1Canadian team. I think it would be fine on NBC and we know there wouldn’t be an issue for Canadian television. It’s not the same as a the regular Sunday game.

There are only 6 Canadian teams, which would disproportionately represent them (not that NBC cares about proportional representation…). I’m fine with two games if it allows non-Canadian teams a reasonable chance to play an outdoor game. It is silly if Pitt and Philly are going to rotate every few years.

Now that I think about it, there are notes on a couple of the recipes from my nanny. So probably before.

They’re certainly not the team they were last season. Is there any risk they won’t make the playoffs, though?

No team is like the team they were last year; it was a very unusual situation with the number of returning players and the limited number of injuries and call-ups.

Right now, this is about injuries.

Not right now, no, that shouldn’t be an issue.

Ok, the Bears don’t get shutout out a lot at home, but Walton or his researcher is wrong. You don’t have to go back to 2005 for a regular season shutout at Giant Center.

Evening, all. I saw a stat yesterday that the Bears hadn’t scored a ppg in seven (now eight) games. Woould need to check, but isn’t that roughly the number of games that AG10 has been out?

It’s probably more about the defense, it’s totally shredded right now. Nice of Edmonton to pub Souray on re-entry over the weekend, assuming he’s not getting claimed.

Upon further review the Bears were shutout at home in 2009. Still it’s been a long time since the Bears failed to score one at home.

Amen to that one. It looks to me that, as of late, many of the teams immediately below the Caps are struggling. Buffalo has lost 3 in a row. The Rangers and Montreal have both lost 2 in a row. And Carolina has not exactly been setting the world on fire, as of late.

For Hershey, at least Holtby’s well enough to play. Now we need to get him back in game day shape. (I recall it took a while for Varly to be back to normal after his injuries last year.)
