Think Mathew Tkachuck has a "lower body injury" from last nights game and Shea Theodore is down with an 'upper body injury".
Too bad, it has been entertaining hockey for sure.

I don't want to see any player being hurt but injury and taking one for the team has been embedded in the DNA of the NHL for 100 years. Last night's game will create a whole new group of fans who are tired of pro sports played by a bunch of overpaid and pampered prima donnas.
I suspect that there will be some serious 'come to Jesus' meetings by the officials about consequences in the future.
