I don't see Hitch as that big of a fan of Halak for some reason. I feel like after last year Hitch looks at Halak like he's weak.
Hey guys, does anyone know if Pietrangelo's okay after leaving the game yesterday? I have fantasy playoffs on the line here!

nnnnnnnnooooooooopeAny updates on Halak at all?
Stress fractures often aren't apparent on X-rays taken when symptoms first present. It might take weeks, or even a month, for evidence of a stress fracture to show up on an X-ray. MRIs are slightly more sensitive to picking them up (still far from foolproof), but if their initial diagnosis was a bone bruise it's unlikely that they had one done.How does this happen? Medical staff needs to answer for this one
What's up with Nichol? Is he still injured or is he benched?

Once it became apparent that the foot wasn't healing as expected, they probably caught it when they re-visited the X-rays and/or performed additional tests (i.e. an MRI).
It sucks, but sometimes things like this happen. I'm not seeing any gross negligence on the part of the medical staff here.
No he's still injured.Benched. Porter has taken his spot as 4th line C and has been playing the best hockey of his career.
No he's still injured.
When did he get injured? I don't remember him getting an injury to keep him out this long.
