Alexander Ovechkin was ejected from yesterday's IIHF game against Switzerland for  a high hit on a Swiss player. He has been suspended for one additional contest, and the board will be reviewing it on Monday to determine whether further suspension is warranted. 

 

Tuuka Rask signed a three-year entry level deal with the Bruins yesterday. Expect a year of seasoning in the AHL before he takes a crack at the big club.

 

Canada will play USA at the Worlds on Monday. 

 

In practice, Marcel Hossa was demoted to the fourth line, Straka bumped up to the top line, and Nigel Dawes played with Shanahan and Avery. You may see Ryan Callahan scratched. 

 

In a harmless looking play, Mathieu Schneider sustained a broken wrist and will be out for the remainder of the playoffs. Brett Lebda, however, is now healed from his sprained ankle and will step back into the lineup.

A pair of Canucks will undergo surgery in the coming days. Brendan Morrison will undergo surgery to repair a sports hernia, while Kevin Bieksa has a torn oblique muscle.

Keeping Karlsson Short Shifts – Thanks for Vejmelkmories

Elizabeth and Lewis reunite to bring you all the latest fantasy news and strategy, such as how our siblings would fare if called on to fill our roles like Owen Sillinger did for bro Cole. Then it’s onto news including coverage of the postponed CGY/LAK game and defensive injuries piling up in MIN and putting some strain on Gustavsson’s performance. Injuries and outjuries include a pair of goalies returning to their teams in Ingram and Shesterkin, as well as how Monahan’s wrist injury opens the door for big minutes for Fantilli. Finally, the pair touch on Voronkov and PLD’s hot streaks, and discuss John Carlson’s rollercoaster in light of Chychrun’s production.

Keeping Karlsson: Tuch Hunch

On this edition of the Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast mega-show, Elan and Brian tour every team, ranking a slate of the least bad goalies, noticing the wind in some Red Wings’ and Stars’ sails, dangling snoozer status above a pair of commonly rostered power-play quarterbacks, and rushing or strolling, accordingly, to some skaters on the up and up.
