Injury Report: MAY 6: Neal, Orpik work in full gear during optional practice

[rkhum]

Very Fat Chance.

1. Pascal Dupuis will not be taken off of Crosby's wing.
2. Cooke will not play on the 4th line.
3. Murray will only play with Niskanen
4. Despres will not play over Engelland
5. Vitale won't play lol
6. Bylsma won't bench Fleury after one game (I agree with this)

I think we willl see the same lineuo as we did Friday night, unless Orpik is back which...I doubt.

Kunitz-Crosby-Dupuis
Bennett-Malkin-Iginla
Morrow-Sutter-Cooke
Glass-Jokinen-Adams

Eaton-Letang
Martin-Engelland
Murray-Niskanen

Fleury.

No Neal?

 

[Fire Shero*]

So has Neal definitely been rules out?

Go pens

 

[Fordy]

No Neal?

He practiced for a whole ten minutes.

 

[Darth Vitale]

Would be shocked if Neal played today. You gotta figure he would need at least one full practice first. And yesterday I forgot today's game is so early there probably was no morning skate, optional or otherwise.

They don't pay him to practice, now.

Soon . . . if it makes you feel better. Unfortunately, he'll be about as effective when he comes back on an Iginla-Malkin-Neal line as he was today.

I didn't hear that. Do you have a link?

Bad news, man: Neal has AIDS cancer. Drop him and pick up Tanner Glass. Glass has been clutch for us all year when guys were injured.

Link not required. It's common knowledge that most of our players who are out with injuries and required for hockey pools, eventually die at the zoo. It's inevitable.

Afternoon..

Lord Elrond is but a mythical character, churned out by an invented writer, spawned by Grandpa Smith. There is no past as you know it, only invented memories... and... the future. Our future.

African wild dogs got him...

Don't try to understand how African wild dogs escaped from their pen in the zoo and killed James Neal; instead only try to realize the truth.... there are no wild dogs.

Well played, sir... well played.

 

[Beaudangles19]

any line news?

 

[steveg]

Well played, sir... well played.

Agreed! Nicely done!

 

[IcedCapp]

Practice is staring, but it's optional, so we won't learn too much. No one skated early.
