Upshall high ankle injury

[Rusty Pickles]

Out two weeks at least. Tolpeko probably gets the call back up.

I have no idea what happened as i did not see the play but hopefully a high ankle injury doesnt imply a sprain. That means it\'ll be more like 6-8 like it was for Fleury and Crosby.

7:25 p.m.
Philadelphia Flyers General Manager Paul Holmgren gave an update today as to the injury status of Scottie Upshall. Upshall will be out for 7-10 days after sustaining an ankle sprain, and will remain in a cast until the weekend.

It is a different injury from a high-ankle sprain and also separate from his previous injury (sprained right ankle) that kept him out of the line up for five games from Dec. 30, 2007 through Jan. 10, 2008.

Upshall suffered the injury in the second period of last night\'s contest against the Washington Capitals.

As I said, two weeks.

My apologies for not being a doctor. I hear \"high\" and \"ankle\" i think Crosby & Fleury.

[Rusty Pickles]

that\'s \'cause they changed the injury after examination, no biggy.

Thanks, boost back at ya

Just because I have an ingrained disliking of the rangers doesn\'t mean I\'m evil.:laugh:

I\'m a fan of the game so I always find players I appreciate even if it\'s a team I am supposed to root against. I will go to the Garden sometime to see a game, just not vs my flyers I think lol. Yes, there are players on the Rangers that I think are good and awesome. I am not blind. They will be good, I just don\'t know if they can pull it all together this year.
