    Knee into the boards. Hopefully just a stinger. Looked a lot better than the Latvian injury.

    Tavares out for the remainder of the Olympics.

    Source says Tavares has a knee injury, done for Olympics. No word beyond that as of yet. #Isles
    Head coach Mike Babcock said after the game that Tavares wouldn’t be able to play again in Sochi.

    This sucks even more because JT is an 82-game guy, and I'd hate for this to be the start of something that makes him injury-prone for the next 3-4 seasons (as with Kesler, who used to be an 82-game guy)

    Hopefully it's not too serious.

    On the bright side, Duchene will see some action. Does Canada get to recall anyone?

    Tough break for Canada and mainly the Islanders. Hopefully it isn't serious.

    @blayze - No, rosters are locked. Must continue with remaining players already on roster.

    Definitely.

    Although I do feel Kesler has been the product of bad luck. A lot of his injuries have been freak ones that don't really have to do with durability (i.e. fracturing a bone in your foot from a blocked shot).

    You can call it bad luck but when you play with the manic fervour of a rabid dog injuries are eventually going to become a factor. It's what makes Kesler so endearing but also what puts him on the shelf.

    I'm in the exact same boat right now. Despite that, I couldn't keep from laughing when I read your note.
