Canada's defense is just getting pummelled with injuries!
"Sportsnet has learned Chris Pronger had an MRI Thursday that confirmed the hulking defenceman has sustained a crack in his right foot. It's believed the injury happened in the first period of Edmonton's 6-5 win over Anaheim Monday night. While swelling at times has been a problem, the star defencman still feels he can continue to play without jeopardizing the team. Although the Olympics drop the puck on hockey next week, Pronger's first commitment is to play through the injury for Edmonton's remaining games. Pronger suffered a similar injury during the 2003-04 season as a member of the St Louis Blues and managed to continue to play through the pain. "
