Pitkanen
Pitkanen apparently left Tuesday's game with an LBI:
The Canes played the third period without defenseman Joni Pitkanen, who left late in the second with a lower-body injury. Muller said after the game that he did not know of the severity of Pitkanen's injury.
"Losing (Pitkanen) was a big blow for us tonight," Muller said.

Hmmm. I've been waiting for this.
Here's the thing. If Pitkanen misses games, is there a bonifide QB? I've read pp time on ice in Faulk's favour and Corvo and McBain. Would there be a clear favourite? Whoever it is, this could be big, especially if Pitkanen is gone for a while and with his injury past, its a possibility. Can't find anything.
Yeah, I also haven't seen anything on how long/serious, if at all, this may be for Pitkanen.Originally Posted by bluejays
But assuming it's anything, I agree with your assessment of the PP situation. I think it'd be a clear win for Faulk, followed by Corvo, followed by McBain (though all would see an uptick in PP time as a result).

Well it looks like he's day to day with a lower body.

Joni Pitkanen left Saturday's game with a lower body injury.
Pitkanen returned from a lower body injury on Saturday, but logged just 6:02 minutes in his return. It's not clear at this time if he's aggravated his original injury or if this is an entirely new problem.

Pitkanen did some early skating before the morning skate, Muller said. Still "day to day."
Thanks. Losing Pitkanen, Green and Karlsson has been a killer for me this year.
