Connolly, Kalinin Officially Out

I know there's a couple other threads discussing the possibility, thought I'd start one with the link to the story that Connolly is "day-to-day" and Kalinin "week-to-week"

I like the idea of novotny playing as it allows roy to stay on the drury/grier line, but Vanek does bring some punch that we'll miss with Tim out.

We won the first game in Ottawa, and the last two games against Philly, without Hecht.

 

We won the second game in Ottawa without Connolly.

 

At various times during the season we have won consistently without Hecht, Connolly, Dumont or Briere -- or without some combination thereof.

 

We have won with Kalinin either out or working his way back into playing shape.

 

We were less successful when we lost Numminen for a couple of weeks during the regular season and for two games against Philly. THAT is the guy I do not want to lose.

 

You never want to lose anyone, but the fact is that our forward depth is such that missing one or two of them still gives us plenty of options. Except Drury; that guy is too integral to all of our special teams.

 

Knock on wood.
