Reports out of the Thrashers organization are saying that Box 22 forward Radek Dvorak suffered an upper-body injury early on Tuesday night against the Canadiens and didn't return. There were no other updates to his condition available on Wednesday morning, but we'll consider him day-to-day if he isn't able to go on Thursday night in Philadelphia.
The Penguins are starting to get healthy again, mostly in their depth player more than their superstars, but every little bit helps. Mike Comrie, who returned from hip surgery on the weekend, was made a healthy scratch on Tuesday night, making room for Mark Letestu, who had come back from an injury as well. Comrie didn't play too much in his return and was likely slotted into the line-up because of their injury situation. I would expect some more practice for Comrie before jumping back in.
There are also reports out today that Box 25 forward, Eric Tangradi, is almost ready to return to the line-up soon, as he has been out with a concussion, since big dust-up between the Penguins and Islanders, that resulted in all of those suspensions. Tangradi is just waiting for the green light for game action from team doctors and that might not be too far away.
