Looks like Backlund will be out at least a week, along with Kiprusoff.

Street has bee the Heats best play all year long, including when Baertschi was there.Good for Street to be given a shot would prefer Horak but o well hopefully Street can make the most of this chance.
Kiprusoff was placed on IR retroactive to February 5th with a Grade 1 MCL sprain. He is expected to miss approximately one week, according to a team release. Backlund is out with a Grade 2 MCL sprain and could miss 4-6 weeks, according to the release.

This is real bad, 4-6 weeks is hard to swallow, especially from a player who was finally breaking out. I hope street makes the most of this opportunity
So what was essentially the second line on opening day (Sven - Backlund - Cammy) is now all injured. That's no small blow to the team's depth.
Fortunately, they were only the 2nd line on opening night because the actual second line was injured / grieving.So what was essentially the second line on opening day (Sven - Backlund - Cammy) is now all injured. That's no small blow to the team's depth.
At least 2/3 of that line is only week to week.
