- - Nilstorp (http://forums.dobbersports.com/showthread.php?t=144085)

Nilstorp came out of the about midway through the third period. Had to really stretch out on a shot early in the period and was in obvious pain afterwards. He played through it for a while but was pulled for Lehtonen. No word yet on exact injury or severity.

Coach Gulutzan reported that Cris Nilstorp "tweaked" his groin.

And there's the answer. Seemed obvious enough when it occurred, but now it's official. A followup tweet listed him as day-to-day.

So will Bachman get a start now to give Lehtonen another game to rest?

According to Mark Stepneski Lehtonen will get the start tomorrow night against Columbus. Look for Bachman to be in against Detroit on Tuesday in the second game of the back-to-back.

Nilstorp returning from groin injuries

Quote:

The Dallas Stars have activated center Derek Roy and goalie Cris Nilstorp from the injured list.
Roy, who missed five games with a groin injury, will be available Monday night at Colorado. Nilstorp and defenseman Jordie Benn have been sent to the Texas Stars of the American Hockey League.
Nilstorp's assignment means Richard Bachman will remain the backup to Kari Lehtonen.
Roy has two assists in four games for Dallas. He came over in an offseason trade with Buffalo. Benn is scoreless with four penalty minutes in eight games for Dallas.
Nilstorp missed four games with a groin injury. He was 0-2 filling in for Lehtonen. Nilstorp appeared in 28 games for the Texas Stars before joining Dallas after the lockout ended.
