    Default Connolly (hip)

    BIGGEST INJURY SURPRISE EVER.

    "...Tim Connolly (hip) has been placed on injured reserve by the Sabres and he won't play on Tuesday.

    Joining him on the injured list is Buffalo agitator Patrick Kaleta, who also did not play on Sunday because of a hand ailment and will miss Tuesday's contest in Ottawa. Matt Ellis and Paul Byron were brought up from the minors to fill in for the team's injured forwards."

    This guy has the bone dexterity of a Saltine cracker...not surprised at all that he filled his yearly two injury quota with still another half season left to bump up his overall average.

    Yep oversight on my part...I meant his bones are supposed to be strong enough to where they're not supposed to crumble like a Saltine cracker any time they're pressured or stressed.

    What is really amazing is that a guy of his skill has been a FA for most of the season in my league! No one wants him.

    The kid has amazing hands and skill. I got to watch him a lot when he was on Eerie, one of my buddies was on the team, and he dominated games. Its a shame he cant stay healthy for any extended period.

    It's true.

    I plucked him off FA last year along with J Jokinen and they helped me win the league.

    Any sense of whether this type of injury is season ending? He was dropped in our league and wondering if he is worth a flyer.

    lol...maybe just Nodl....if you want to take a flier on him though that's not a bad idea depending on who you'd drop

    Maybe Greene in your case. With Roy on the shelf your top centers are Sharp and Krejci.

    I could see him being dealt at the deadline. He's a UFA this summer and it doesn't seem too friendly for him in Buffalo anymore.

    Wouldn't he look better on the 2nd line in LA than Stoll? Just saying....
