Stastny Out With Another Groin Pull

by Joe Dunman on Mar 14, 2008 12:51 PM MDT in NHL News

Sure enough, Paul Stastny left the game last night with what the Rocky Mountain News calls a "slight" groin pull.

[ADDENDUM: I think it's worth noting that intrepid MHH member Bob in Boulder totally called this during the game last night, and this blog, via his astute observations, was on the case before anybody on Altitude or in either Denver daily said a word. Good work, Bob.]

Stastny did not practice today because of it. Honestly, does anyone on that team ever stretch? The RMN says Son of Stastny will play on Saturday, but you have to assume that he probably won't, or he'll just hurt himself again.

Peter Forsberg did practice, so that kills my "hiding in a bunker" theory, but he won't play Saturday, nor will Adam Foote or Jordan Leopold.

At least Ryan Smyth is scheduled to suit up and rejoin the lineup against the Devils, so that's good.

Yes, the team should rename itself to

the Spinal Tap Drummers.

Re: Yes

Uh, that's STD.

I think that's the one thing nobody on the team has come down with this season, but I likely just jinxed Brad Richardson and Peter Budaj...ifyouknowwhatimean.

Re: Re: Yes

So we're not counting whatever is incubating in Theo from his fling with Paris "Petri-dish" Hilton? Just because he hasn't presented symptoms doesn't mean he has come down with some kind of viral genital cancer or something...

Re: Yes

Well, as much as I like talking about Theodore's genitals, we'll just have to trust that he's healthy. His performance this year would suggest that he's much better now, thank you.

Friggen Whammy

I think Brunette has pictures of the Whammy's wife, it's the only explanation.
