PrintJamie Benn will be out for 2-3 weeks after having his appendix removed... that hurts.
Double trouble for the Stars as Mike Ribeiro's knee injury is expected to keep him out for at least the next two weeks as well.
Mikko Koivu is going to be re-evaluated today but initial reports say that he could miss at least a month due to a shoulder injury.
I missed this on Saturday, Blake Wheeler left the Jets game after taking a puck to the throat. He was taken to the hospital and everything checked out ok but he didn't travel with the team for their game tonight.
Alexander Steen has missed the last eight with a concussion but he may be able to return as early as tonight.
I declared yesterday that Craig Smith was a healthy scratch on Saturday night but apparently he has a "virus".
Returning to action from the injured list last night: Jeff Skinner & David Booth.

Got home late from work last night and checked my weekly (Beta League) roster to see if Bogosian was good to go for the week – no word, so I put McBain back in and it was then I noticed Benn was out for awhile. Now I’ve got like 3 minutes until midnight to find a center as Koivu is also on my team and I only carry 3 centers. I’ve been lucky with injuries so far and still had Giordano on the IR so I had to clear up that before I could make a move. Anyway, I quickly dropped Mcbain, activated Giordano and then had to look for a center – clock is ticking… gotta move fast. Noticed Bolland is streaking and now had to drop someone for him – O.K. Flash and his 1+3=4 and – 15 in the last month, yer dead to me, tough call but clock is still ticking… make the move. Put Bolland in at center for Benn but it was at 12:02 (and takes effect next week) and now I’m stuck with an appendixless Benn at center this week. Crikey!

Less excitement is sometimes appreciated.
