We're almost three weeks into the 2010-2011 campaign and already there are some key injuries around the league. Let's take a look.
1- Craig Anderson from the Colorado Avalanche is not travelling with the team and is going to get his knee checked out by some doctors back home. This is not good news, but opens the door for Budaj to once again be the #1 goaltender
2- Jason Pominville is still feeling the effects of his concussion and is out indefinitely. Buffalo is feeling his absence and if it is prolonged, look for Buffalo to try and make an acquisition.
3- Brian Rafalski has already been out for a couple of weeks and is expected back in early November. How good is Detroit if they don't even need this guy to compete!
4- Drew Doughty was about to continue on his path to the hall of fame when a concussion came along and has kept him out of the game for a couple of weeks now. Let's hope its not too serious and he can come back and wow fans all over again.
5- Marian Gaborik is fragile like glass and again he finds himself on the IR, this time with a separated left shoulder. The Rangers need him back as soon as possible as he is their elite player and creates space for everybody else.
Notables: Pierre-Marc Bouchard is taking part in contact drills again which is excellent news for the Wild and their fans.
