Now Salo just went to the bench holding his right leg, couldn't put weight on it as he went to the bench

It's not just you. That happened.

And just to keep the hits coming, Salo injured. If we are going to have any kind of sucess with Stammer out, we need Sami. We need everybody.

Aulie left the game too. Which means we're down to six defensemen, and one of them is Mark Barberio.

Funny how insignificant the loss seems right now. Boston might have just knocked us out of the playoffs.

Aulie has an upper body injury and Salo has a lower body; Yzerman did not have full extent of severity, but sounds like Salo might miss Mont

Don't know who's coming up, but have to think #tblightning will make a recall or two ahead of Tuesday's game in Montreal

Salo lower body, doubtful for tomorrow, Aulie is upper body, no update on his status for tomorrow RT @sfintampa: Any word on Salo or Aulie?

 

[FiLe]

Is there any word on Salo?

According to Finnish media, Salo's injury is nothing major, and he should be sidelined for "a few games" at most. The source is probably Salo himself.

Any word on Salo?

Last I saw they were saying it wasn't serious and he'd miss "a few games." Not sure if anything more has come out.

 

[CarpeNoctem]

Salo was DWO, diagnosed with old It's best for him to take a few games off anyway.

Cooper said that Salo will not play tonight, but expects him back on the trip out west; Aulie out longer, Pyatt getting closer #tblightning

Salo

D Sami Salo took part in Thursday’s morning skate while donning a red practice jersey reserved for injured players.

At the time, the injury wasn’t considered serious and Salo remains listed as day-to-day.

“He won’t play tonight, but he’ll play on this Western trip,’’ Lightning head coach Jon Cooper said.

Aulie

D Keith Aulie, who suffered an upper body injury on Monday in Boston, is on injured reserve and is still a ways away from returning, Cooper said.

Pyatt

C Tom Pyatt, who broke his collar bone on Oct. 8 in Buffalo, has been skating on his own for the past week. He could join the team for the upcoming road trip, but is not ready to return, Cooper said.

 

[Tampa Bay Kiwi]

Pyatt should be close, Collar bones heal to roughly 80% and then don't change for about 2 years. Will be great to have him back.

Who do you think goes back down? Looks like Brown, but I'm wondering if it might be Labrie. Anyone know his waiver status?

I'd prefer if it was Labrie going back down. IIRC he'd have to clear waivers though.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

I'd prefer if it was Labrie going back down. IIRC he'd have to clear waivers though.

I'm not sure if they want to do that though. They had that choice last season to add him to the Crunch before the playoffs, but they didn't want to risk it, meaning they think someone would pick him up.

 

[DFC]

I'm betting we could deal him. I don't see a big body like that clearing waivers with teams like Montreal so sorely needing size. Might get a late round pick for him, or a fringe defenseman.

I like Labrie, but I feel like Brown is an NHLer right now. And I think there are better big bodies out there that we could acquire if we wanted.

 

[HoseEmDown]

There's been much better heavyweights placed on waivers and cleared so he should clear. Plus with Malone in his spot I don't see him getting any games anymore so losing him isn't a big deal.

 

[chasespace]

Probably Labrie if they're wanting the best possible team in Tampa.

Either Brown or Connolly if they would prefer them to get top minutes over 2nd/3rd line time.

I'm not so sure he clears with that contract. Could be wrong.

Connolly looks like he's gonna get top-six minutes with Stamkos out.

Speaking of Malone, he hasn't spent a whole season healthy in some time. Hate to say it, but he might hurt something sometime before Stammer comes back. *knocks on wood* We just had a freak thing where 3 players were injuried in the same game. I say don't risk losing Nacho if we can help it. You don't know when we might need him.

I'm not so sure he's even the best option on that 4th line without Malone. He has some value as a fighter, I guess, since Gudas nor Crombeen are heavyweights (although I'm pretty sure Gudas thinks he is).

Some sort of minor arm issue, with score out of reach no reason to send him back out on the ice RT @Bcurt1364: what happened to Barberio?

Sounds like there was a discussion on whether to send Korobov back to Syracuse tonight, no decision made yet though

Wonder if Barberio getting a bit nicked will allow Korobov to stick around a little bit longer

RT @bestbradever: Any word on Barberio? >> Team says he's fine. Perhaps an arm issue. With game in hand no need to put him out there in 3rd

At least he doesn't have the flu

I would keep Korobov for the west coast trip, let him get a game or two, then send him back when Salo comes back.
