Mangene (torn triceps) might make it back for the playoffs unless he has to have surgery.

I would not count on him for the playoff's even without surgery. That is a significant injury that requires a lot of time to heal without surgery.

This team is the walking wounded. Sucks. I wonder how Mangene tore his tricep? That had to hurt.

It happened in practice earlier this week. You were marked absent on Tuesday.

Oh my, an unexcused absence. Grounds for discipline.

The news about Mangene is a total crapper. He might not put up a ton of points, but he plays balls to the wall every shift. Be fun to watch over the next few years. Hopefully the tri heals sooner than later.

From the sounds if it, the exhibition games came at a good time. Get some key guys healed up.

Nice to see Jimmy playing well for a Detroit team that hasn't hit their stride yet. Picked up a 4-3 shootout win over Minny. Over his last 8 he had put up a 1.97 and an overall 2.18 in 30 games started. Almost a .93 save percentage too. Not bad...finally getting the chance.

On the other hand Dustin Penner has had some struggles over the last couple of years, especially with some coaches. In a recent SI article, Penner is featured in an article titled Dog House Diaries. A great quote from Penner:

"Typically the first sign of the doghouse is decreased ice time, followed by some form of verbal abuse. This is followed by headaches and diarrhea. Merck is working on a pill for it."

Does anyone else find the bit in this article about Sawyer Arena's ice humorous but at the same time sad? Why can't we get these guys/equipment at Alfond???

Here's my opinion on why the ice is better at Sawyer. The air temperature is colder. The Alfond has to be warmer to accommodate basketball. For anyone who has been to Sawyer Arena they can vouch for how cold it is.
