Rotoworld says it's his thigh.
Maybe the Charley Horse they initially said was nothing (that has kept him out almost a month) was actually a groin injury. A DTD/IR Mid to Lower body Week to Week/Practiced twice but won't take the flight injury.
This guy is the worst. An embarassment of riches as far as talent goes but an embarassment to have on your team. Washington was smart in only signing him for the one extra year. That's low risk even though the tag was 6.7 mil.. still less than Brian Campbell or Chris Drury.
In retrospect, I think Eric Fehr scores 30-35 goals in 2013 on the first line with Backstrom/Ovechkin.. and more importantly, plays all 82 games. And Semin by that time is toiling in Nashville wearing cowboy boots and injures himself line dancing at a Kenny Rodgers show.

I hope he's not developing one of those calcified Jagr bruises. I gambled and traded Joe Thornton for him and a waiver pick two weeks ago. Thank God Thornton pretty much sucks.
Pretty soon he'll be playing sledge hockey in the special olympics. Too bad he doesn't have the heart for it.

DiPietro and Semin are rolling around in bed tonight in their piles of money. Semin plans on teaching DiPietro how to efferctive use the "bitch slap" in preparation for his next fight
I just got back from Caps practice....didn't stay long. It was a Caps Kids Club day so there were probably 1500-2000 people there.
Alex Semin is again wearing a yellow not contact jersey. I took a picture, but it isn't the best quality...here it is.
I saw a tweet that Neuvirth was practicing and doing groin stretches. The tweet made it sound like he has been on the ice lately, but he has been fully participating since Sunday, so it isn't really news to me.
Caps/Lightning recap will be posted in a few hours.

That is kind of what I am thinking. I really don't know what to make of this whole thing. Honestly I am hoping he gets traded before he puts on a game jersey again. Hopefully he will be rested enough when he does come out to make a difference for the team and go the rest of the season without injury.

From Katie Carrera via twitter:
Also of note from her...Boudreau said Semin will be ready to play next week and that he's 'skating better'. #Caps
(I will post this in the Malkin thread as well.As many have said, wow. RT @pghpenguins: #Pens coach Bylsma: Malkin has torn MCL and ACL.

What the hell is going on? This gamble I took on him is not working out at all!
Can you slip some arnica-montana into his water bottle? Promotes healing.

Semin underwent emergency surgery to amputate his vagina. As a result, he practiced on a line with Laich and Perreault today. Doesn't mean he's definintely in for tomorrow's game, but I guess it's a start.
