This is very unfortunate, has had a strong pre-season, thought he outplayed Weiss and Franzen tonight.
Ohhh noooo, i am so sad.
Wait no, I can't even pretend.
Team is better without him and his hooked on phonics level of offensive awareness.
I seriously doubt he misses a single game.
Will you please enjoy the Dats-Z-Cleary line with me?
How has no one mentioned the obvious yet?
What hands?
If Cleary starts out on line 1, I won't even bother watching the first game of the year.

Wings said Abdelkader sustained cut to left hand and is being stitched up, result of fight near end of game.
Why does he need to fight if he's on the top line? Come on.
He didn't seem real interested in dropping his gloves when watching it they were pushing and what not. Think the injury happened on the fall. But he kept one on and had both gloves still on when the Pittsburgh player really engaged in the fight. Had no problem with him pushing back, heck a slash to the hand might have started all that, no reason for him to take business when they are losing 5 to 1.

What? How does what line you are on have anything to do with if you should fight back or not. Did anyone ***** about Shanny fighting from the top line? How about Probert riding shotgun for Yzerman. What an odd question.
He was praticing today (I think), how long will he be out for, if at all?
Crap, this is really gonna hurt his chances on getting on the Team USA Olympic roster...
Anyone who thinks Abdelkader is a fighter is kidding themselves. He's going to get killed if he crosses the path of guys like Lucic and Neil, real power forward/fighter types.
