The curse of Box 25 has finally hit Carolina, as Drayson Bowman has found his way to the press box for a game. Bowman did not dress for the game against the Rangers on Friday night and may be on the verge of a demotion, since he has yet to register a point in seven games with the club. It wouldn't be terribly surprising if he did go down, since most of his selection sheet counterparts have found that fate already.
With Nikolai Khabibulin returning to the net on Friday night against the Blackhawks, the trio of goalies in Edmonton needed to have one sit and the victim was Box 16's Jeff Deslauriers, who sat in favour of Devan Dubnyk. The Oilers goaltending situation is a tricky one, since all three would have to pass through waivers to get down to the minors and the situation with Khabibulin is still up in the air, so I'm expecting to continue watching this trio of goalies cycle around for a while yet.Link to the Injury/News Page
