The joys of blocking shots. T.J. Brodie of the Flames left last night's game against Carolina with a lower-body injury, after blocking a shot in the game. There was no word in the morning about his status, but he tried to play on the injury, but couldn't go any more than five shifts in the 2nd period. The Flames will host Columbus on Friday and we'll probably know just before then, how depleted their blueline will be.More bad news for Mike, who is relying on the Flames blueline to help him through this rough patch, but it doesn't look like it is going to help him at all. Currently, midway through Week Eighteen, his team is 31 points better than last place, so there is a buffer, but he'll be in good for a great draft pick next year.
One of those nasty bugs have gotten the best of Red Wings forward Riley Sheahan, as he hadn't been on the ice much this week and missed out on Wednesday night's game against Tampa Bay as well. He's listed as out day-to-day, but after the morning skate on Thursday, he is expected to draw back into the lineup in Florida on Thursday night, taking Teemu Pulkkinen out as a healthy scratch.Cindy's team has been somewhat stagnant in the standings, sitting around 15th & 16th spot for the last month. This bit of news won't force her to drop Sheahan, but she might have to find something to give her team a boost this week.
