Injury Woes

Well the Highlanders are starting to pick it up. Week 3 looks to be a 40+pt week that has me knocking on the door of the Ramapithicines and Severed Heads for the lead - a big improvement from the last couple of weeks lurking in the shallow end of the pool - but now is the time that try men's hearts, injury time.

Sheldon Souray and (according to last night's summary) Bryan Berard are out. Souray's separated shoulder will keep him out at least 3 weeks but probably he's gone until the wiaver draft (in December). Hopefully Berard's groin pull is minor but its always a concern when a player with a long period of inactivity, say all of last year, comes back to play significant minutes.

We'll give Mara and Schubert a chance to prove that they belong and hope that this upcoming week is even better than the last.
