    Default Andy McDonald

    He took a puck in the face with about 3 seconds to go. I watched the game but didn't get anby updates with him. He skated to the benhc. It wasn't a concussion type hit or anything like that but with his history of injuries, anytime he goes to the bench it's scary. Anyone have anything about this situation?

    I think the Blues play again today... so you'll know soon.
    Probably something will be on their team website too.

    Why is this such a critical matter?

    Why are any injuries critical? Because we obsessed poolies and we like information yesterday.

    He has a good chemistry with Tarasenko and I don't want to see that line lose any momentum.

    I'm sure a slap in the face is critical to Andy considering his concussion history ... But I'm sure a puck to the face won't be as concerning but wouldn't rule anything out

    I'm also working on a deal and one of the components of that deal is to include McDonald in the deal. So if he is healthy, it makes the deal much more possible.

    Whew, I traded for McDonald just for this year because I thought 48 games is the only way he could play a FULL season!
