So just saw it via TSN... that's a big chunk of time for your number 1 Dman to be out... that'll hurt the Pens.

I knew not drafting him last night was a good thing.

Not really. They didn't have Hossa for most of the season. I get to watch 2 of the top players in the game every game. Who is the good young player they lost before opening night?

Ah. Whits has been out for a while now. Sykie only has the cold, so he will be back for the opener, unless things go south. I'm not worried at all. The team will make the playoffs without Gonch and Whits. What makes it better is, almost like a trade, these 2 will come back for the playoffs and make the team so much scarier to play against. Yeah, I got to watch your team win the cup as well, and in person. Beat that!!!

Well I was there in the 1997 finals. I think in a few years the roles will be reversed Detroit has a lot of veterans who are due for the retirement home soon
