This afternoon, George Richards wrote that Greg Campbell left practice early for an MRI, while Stephen Weiss didn't do any on-ice practice. McCabe is getting closer to returning, which is good news.
Former Panther Alex Auld will start against the Cats tomorrow night.
LetsGoAmerks.com says Rory Fitzpatrick will be back in the lineup on Friday when the Amerks take on the Toronto Marlies and Peter Aston was practicing again, too.
That, along with this practice report from yesterday have painted a great picture of how coach Benoit Groulx is handling things. It looks like he knows how to coach a hockey team. Hopefully guys like Plante and the defense can step up and give the struggling offense a chance to give them more goals than the opposition.
Plus, is Curt Styres looking for options on the goal-scoring front? Someone to boost the offense would be a huge plus.
Over in Sweden, Jacob Markström has had a little bit of a rough go of it the last few games and Brynäs has fallen off the top spot, dropping to fifth. They're still only two points off the pace with just as many games as the teams ahead of them, so no need to worry just yet. He's only 18, and he has held up remarkably well to this point, so some stumbles ought to be expected.
Markström's past three games have yielded an 0-3 record with a 5.00 GAA and a save percentage slightly below .840 at around .838%.
