Handzus mini-update
I'm told, through a team spokesman in London, that Handzus practiced yesterday and is ``likely'' to play this weekend. That's all I've got. I don't know specifics. You have to understand that Crawford hands out injury information the way most people hand out $100 bills. If I hear anything more, I'll certainly pass it along.

what about frolov? Crawford said he's hurt and he hasn't played all that much..
Frolov, again, strained his groin at the end of camp in L.A. He was scheduled to miss a week and be back for Saturday. If he doesn't play, then there was some sort of setback in practice today or tomorrow.
Rich,
Looking at the O2 site, they say they can do NHL hockey on their amazing "ice floor".
Is this temporary ice? Can you find out what they will be playing on? Also, is the rink NHL or International sized?
John,
You have to remember that the O2 Arena is in England. This is the country where people refer to cigarettes as "fa.." well, you get the point. When referring to "ice floor"i'm certain that they're just talking about the ice.
It's my understanding that the O2 is suited for olympic sized ice, but they're going to be using the smaller NHL size rink.
These are NHL games...it has to be 'NHL' regulation sized ice...duh.
Sounds like Crow is taking cues from Bowman about injury updates
let him rest
