Blake out two weeks

The Kings are announcing that Rob Blake is out two weeks with a non-displaced fracture in his left ankle. A Kings spokesman says Blake suffered the injury when he blocked a shot against Edmonton and continued to play in discomfort the past six games. He returns home to get treatment while Peter Harrold comes back up from Manchester to take his place on the roster. I'll see if I can get anyone else on the phone about this.

Wow... The only guy that could not get hurt gets hurt... Luckily it's only two weeks and he should still be trade bait but still... Worst time ever for this :P

What about Dallman?
I know he's in Manchester for conditioning, but shouldn't he be given the first shot in the event of an injury.
What a cnfidence destroyer, when you're coach has absolutely ZERO confidence in you.
i bet he's sorry he ever signed with this organization.
