Demitra Out 4 Weeks

The Canucks received some bad news today, as Pavol Demitra will be lost to the team for the next four weeks, thanks to his rib cartilage injury. An MRI conducted showed that some of the cartilage was fractured, causing much discomfort in Demitra.

The next four weeks could cost Demitra upwards of 13 more games this season. He has been known as somewhat of an injury-risk, since he hasn't been 100% for a full season in a few years.

This is Dennis' second significant bit of player news today, this one being far more significant than the previous. Demitra also holds a spot in Box 3 on the Sheet and was taken once or twice, if I'm not mistaken.
