Injury report

John Zeiler missed practice with a strained groin. I believe he's the only active injury situation, other than Marc-Andre Cliche and Richard Clune. No timetable on Zeiler's return although it certainly doesn't help his chances of making the team

So for all intents and purposes, we have 15 forwards.

I imagine we'll carry 2 extra as healthy scratches (along with 1 defensemen) so could it be that only 1 of the following will be sent down to start the season...???

Armstrong
Boyle
Brown
Calder
Frolov
Handzus
Ivanans
Kopitar
Moller (cool!)
Moulson
Purcell
Richardson
Simmonds (cool!)
Stoll
Westgarth (gone?)

(This assumes Cliché, Clune, and Zeiler all are still injured starting next Saturday.)

Wavesinair,
I think we have carried 13 F, 8 D and 2 G in the past.

Not sure if we will do the same this year, but that being said, PoS, if and when, will take a spot, so I think 3 need to be struck from your list. Unfortunately the two cool ones will probably at least be of the 3 if not 2 of the 3.
