Maxim Afinogenov did not dress last night. He has a groin injury. He is unable to skate and will be out for the next several games. He was just about to turn it around, too…

 

Dan Paille was rocked by Anton Volchenkov last night and left the game dizzy. Sounds like he'll be sitting for at least a week.

 

After being a healthy scratch for two games, Kyle Wellwood will be back in the lineup tonight.
Andrew Raycroft will get the start against the Flyers tonight.

 

The Flyers have recalled Steve Downie. Don't expect a lot of ice time for the rookie this time either.
Jason Jaffray is playing between Naslund and Pyatt on the second line. I don't think it will last, but keep an eye on it. He has minor league offensive talent.

 

Because the Hurricanes are desperate for a puck-moving rearguard, and Casey Borer was doing just that in the AHL, he is a viable fantasy option right now. He picked up two points last night.
Andrei Kostitsyn has 14 in his last 13, turning things up a notch. The Kostitsyn brothers could be 1-2 in Montreal scoring some day.

 

Glen Murray has been skating and should return to the lineup within a week or so.

 

Andy McDonald (chest) is expected back in the lineup today.

Dallas sent Chris Conner to the minors yesterday.

 

Sergei Zubov (hand) is questionable for today's game.

 

Martin Erat missed practice yesterday and could miss today's game with back spasms.

 

Straight from the rumor mill. Is Teemu back? It's sketchy, but it gets your attention regardless. Let the speculation begin.

 

In the Expert League I am trying to right the ship. Details here.

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.
