Updated Thursday, November 23

Atlanta Thrashers: D Niclas Havelid was out to attend his mother's funeral in Sweden, but he'll be back for Friday's game. - Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Marian Hossa said he spoke with former teammate and fellow Slovak Peter Bondra twice in recent days. He said Bondra is working out on his own but has not received an offer he has wished to pursue. - Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Boston Bruins: If Hannu Toivonen performs well in three minor-league starts this week and his left ankle, which he sprained Nov. 11, feels good, he will be recalled to Boston after the weekend. - Boston Globe

Carolina Hurricanes: Andrew Ladd returned to the lineup in place of Andrew Hutchinson and played in Scott Walker's spot with Eric Staal and Justin Williams. David Tanabe was a healthy scratch for the third straight game. - Raleigh News & Observer

Colorado Avalanche: Highly touted Avalanche rookie Wojtek Wolski was benched for Wednesday's game against Anaheim in a move coach Joel Quenneville hopes will send a stern message. - Denver Post

Dallas Stars: Marty Turco will spend some practice time with goalies coach Andy Moog, and the Stars will "read and react," on just how they move forward with their goalies, coach Dave Tippett said. If Mike Smith plays well as a starter, he might get the nod again Friday against Los Angeles. If he's good then, would the Stars consider playing him against Detroit (a team against which Turco holds a 1-7-5 career record)? - Dallas Morning News

D Jaroslav Modry was a healthy scratch Monday against Colorado. He was replaced in the lineup by Jon Klemm. - Dallas Morning News

Florida Panthers: Jacques Martin said Rostislav Olesz was sent to the minors to gain some confidence. The Americans are playing four games this weekend, with Olesz scheduled to rejoin the Panthers on Monday in Montreal. - Miami Herald

Minnesota Wild: Benoit Pouliot, a left winger in Houston, played a little left wing with Mikko Koivu and Branko Radivojevic and a little center with Mark Parrish and winger Mattias Weinhandl against Montreal. - Minneapolis Star-Tribune

Montreal Canadiens: Flyers captain Peter Forsberg was scratched from the lineup. He missed practice on Tuesday because of a stiff lower back and is day to day. Forsberg was injured when he hit the boards during Monday's loss to Pittsburgh. He slipped into the boards when his ailing right foot, which has caused him so much trouble this season, gave way. The team continues to search for a solution for Forsberg's surgically repaired right foot. - Phillyburbs.com

Phoenix Coyotes: Rookie Enver Lisin was scratched Wednesday to make room for captain Shane Doan. Coach Wayne Gretzky said Lisin needs a game or two off so he can watch games and figure out how to better position himself defensively. - Arizona Republic

Pittsburh Penguins: : The Penguins recalled C Erik Christensen from Wilkes-Barre yesterday. The 22-year-old forward leads the AHL team in scoring with 12 goals and 12 assists for 24 points in 16 games. Christensen centered a line with Maxime Talbot on the left and Michel Ouellet on the right, while Evgeni Malkin took Sidney Crosby's spot in between Mark Recchi and Colby Armstrong. - Pittsburgh Tribune Review

Pittsburh Penguins: : LW Ryan Malone, who has missed the past 13 games because of a broken left forearm, has had his cast removed and has been skating with strength coach Stephane Dube, but he will need at least several more days before he has enough strength and flexibility in his wrist to return to the lineup. - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

San Jose Sharks: : With Jonathan Cheechoo missing his third straight game because of a leg injury and Milan Michalek out with an arm problem, Sharks coach Ron Wilson was forced to come up with new line combinations. Wilson ended up using Joe Pavelski on a line with Patrick Marleau and Steve Bernier. Joe Thornton - who finished with a goal and two assists - found himself between Mike Grier and Mark Smith, who missed the previous three games with a charley horse. - San Jose Mercury News

Vancouver Canucks: Dany Sabourin, whose one and only start came way back on Oct. 17 in Edmonton, is expected to be in goal tonight when the Canucks visit the Nashville Predators in the second stop of a three-game trip that concludes Saturday night in Denver. - Vancouver Sun


Somebody at TSN's doing some wishful thinking... biggrin.gif

I thought with Arnott being injured it would affect them. Obviously not. Guess it wasn't a good idea for Vancouver to put Sabourin in goal to start with.
