Rhett was injured in last night's Islander game. He suffered a concussion. Here is from the Isles' Newsday blog talking about who practiced today.
Rhett played on the 3rd line last night with Josh Bailey and Jeremy Colliton.
That's too bad. And unexpected as he was listed on the depth chart on one of the Islander blogsthis morning.
Hope it won't keep him off the ice too long.
In depth article from Inside Lacrosse on how the upcoming DU/Duke lacrosse game in Long Island was put together. Duke gave up a home date with DU to play this neutral site game. Tierney gives his insight in the following quote.
Tierney also sees this as a great opportunity for a variety of reason:. “This is a great thing for Denver lacrosse. We are a growing program and are very proud of what we have accomplished, and to play against a fantastic coach like John Danowski and his defending national champions in this environment is a great challenge.
“We need to continue to establish a presence on Long Island. One aspect that I am really looking forward to on April 9 is the opportunity to, in a way, introduce people to the lacrosse movement out West, to see what Denver lacrosse is all about. We are very excited to have the chance to play in front of Long Island fans.”

No new info on Rakhshani. He has a concussion and will be evaluated this week is the only thing I was able to confirm last night on the Islanders' live game blog that originates from the press box much like DU's live game blog.

The Pioneers are probably going to be a little rusty for the first period or two tonight, due to the bye-week layoff and players integrating themselves back into the lineup after a month away from college game play (Zucker, Shore and Bennett if he plays). The key is going to be Brittain and the defense holding firm early and not getting into a hole.
Bump! DU steals a point, we are one point out of first place, CC lost, UND lost, UNO tied, all is well in the world. Oh and I stayed awake 'till the end!!
Hey, did Bennett play?

He didn't get too much ice team in the first two periods. In the third he seemed to be getting his timing back and made an incredible move on a D man before passing the puck off late in the third. I expect we'll come out with a little more passion/discipline tonight. I watched the CC/AA game last night. AA shut the Tigers down by playing their typical perimeter game. I'm worried about them. Our schedule is funky--we have another bye after that series.
Amazing perseverance against a tough MSU team. Great 3 points on the road, although they did it the hard way. Now the guys need to be focused on a Seawolf team that has at least 2 points vs CC this weekend.
