Jamie 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.
