The Boston Globe had a small blurb about Capitals defenseman, Brian Pothier, on the weekend, saying that the 31-year old blueliner will likely miss training camp, thanks to the same post-concussion syndrome symptoms that he was suffering from last season.Pothier only managed to play in 38 games last season, scoring 5 goals and adding 9 assists. The injury caused him to miss the last 41 games of the season and the 7 games of the playoffs for Washington.
If he could get his head back together, he could very well be a useful defender for the Capitals and those who would take the chance on him in their hockey pools, but now with a huge concussion under his cap (quite literally), he does have the tag of having a soft head, which doesn't play well in the fantasy leagues. At best, he'll be a mid-season pick-up for your pool, but it will have to be on the wait-and-see basis.
