Cumiskey, Dupuis Recalled

Let's just recap the latest injury news:

Adam Foote has an injured triceps and will be revaluated in a couple of days. He is out against Nashville. Daniel Tjarnqvist will probably take his place in the lineup, and Kyle Cumiskey has been recalled as well. UPDATE: Foote has been placed on IR retroactive to Sunday, so he is out at least for the next 3 games (Nashville, Chicago and Pittsburgh).

Ian Laperriere has a stiff back and is "day to day". He's also out against Nashville. Philippe Dupuis has been recalled from Lake Erie, but since Ben Guite is also available (he was a scratch against Minnesota), Dupuis is probably just insurance in case...

...Chris Stewart's sore foot will keep him out. According to the RMN article above, he's expected to play, though.

I haven't seen any mention of the status of Darcy Tucker, who was X-rayed after his deranged outburst against Minnesota. I assume that means he's going to play against the Predators. Hurray for us.

To summarize, sounds like Foote and Lappy out, Tjarmin and Guite in.

I love Charmin Ultra, but if they’re gonna call Cumiskey up, they may as well dress him.

Foote

updated above – he’s now on IR and will not get to push around Sydney Crosby

DD, could you make an assessment of the current pay-check we’re putting on the ice per game vs. the league wide average? I’d do it, but I’m still a bit shakey on all the Cap clauses (bonusses etcetera) and it would probably deserve to be frontpage post.

Sweet

let’s call up the two best players for the Monsters, stick ’em in the Nashville press box (party, anyone?), and go out and kick some Predator ass.

Frankly

I’d like to see Dupuis over Hensik right now.

I believe in Peter Budaj

Yeah

I can’t stress how sharp he looked in the game I saw him play in. From the very first shift of the game, he blew a guy up in the corner, took the puck, made a sweet pass, and got a scoring chance. Everytime he was on the ice, he was the best forward out there (Cumiskey is just awesome). He looked like an NHL player on an injury rehab assignment or something.

They call me Bubblegum.
