On Wednesday afternoon, the Pittsburgh Penguins placed rookie defenseman
Simon Despres on the Injured Reserve, because of an undisclosed injury. On Thursday morning, it has been reported that Despres suffered an MCL sprain in his knee, which will keep him out of their line-up for the next 2-to-4 weeks. Despres hasn't been a popular player this year in the hockey pool, with a lot of his time being spent in the minors, even with all the injuries to some of the more prominent defensemen. It does look like he'll be a good pick in a couple years down the line, but just not right now.
