Third Period Open Thread

A wild second has the Caps still holding on to that one-goal lead. More importantly, however, John Erskine has skated just one shift since his first period. Third period ahead...

And then comes this:

Not only is defenceman Dennis Wideman not in the lineup tonight for the Washington Capitals, there’s no telling when he might return.

Wideman is currently in a Washington hospital with a significant leg hematoma as a result of a hit Tuesday by Carolina’s Tuomo Ruutu.

A hematoma is caused by a contusion where blood escapes or leaks from an artery, vein or capillary into soft tissue, such as a muscle, where it does not belong.

It can cause significant swelling and pressure, which often times can only be released by making an incision to drain the blood from the soft tissue.

Sources tell TSN that is precisely the situation in which Wideman now finds himself. While no one knows exactly when, or if, he might return to the Caps lineup, it’s more likely to be classified as out indefinitely as opposed to day-to-day.

That could be a significant loss for the Caps, who are, for now anyway, also without top defenceman Mike Green as well as veteran Tom Poti.

That is rough

I’m sorry to hear that – and I hope Wideman recovers quick from it

It will slow down recovery if there is damage to anywhere else, like his knee if that is also where this big bruise is.

I saw Barcelona at the show the same day I saw David O Russell’s debut Spanking the Monkey and have fond memories of them both. I thought it was a worthy follow up and though Nichole and Eigeman were excellent. Like you I don’t think it is as sharp as Metropolitan. Last Days of Disco is likely my least favourite of the three. I found it a tad too pat and predictable, and teh dialogue not as sharp. That said, I mourn the fact he hasn’t made a movie since. I love good dialogue and miss Stillman’s writing on the big screen.

A mix of both. The 2nd one is all Neuvy in my mind. The poor rebound control was much more worrying overall. Varly by contrast last night was lights out save for that really soft goal that tied it and in the shootout (which is irrelevant to me come playoffs).

by aaw6848 on Mar 31, 2011 10:04 PM EDT up reply actions  

I’ve seen parts of recent games, and their offense is struggling. They’ve been playing a tight defense, and Fleury’s been pretty good. If he plays at his best in the playoffs, I think Tampa will lose. However, if Crosby comes back, things will change. There’s been a lot of discussion over this recently, and that’s the one big question mark.
