From my personal experience, he is probably experiencing soreness and they just did not want to push him. Let him stay on Long Island, rest up, get a skate or two in with a goaltending coach, and then proceed to play at the Garden tomorrow night. The announcement of some type of injury is just necessary work in order to be able to recall Yann Danis. I watched him land as well and I didn’t see much to it.

If DP really is tweaked from that, it'll be just as dumb as the Florida State football player who tore his ACL after doing that idiotic move: http://www.collegefootballtalk.com/2008/11/20/fsus-mcclure-suffers-season-ending-injury-on-celebration/ Why are players so fragile? It was great seeing DP in goal. A big difference between him and JMAC and Danis seems to be how he doesn't allow for second chances/rebounds. He pounces on the puck and eliminates those second opportunities. Sheesh…those damn jumping chest bumps.

This team needs DP at the Garden Monday night. If Joey Mac continues to play, we will continue to lose. I don't understand why everyone thinks Joey plays so "Good". Don't get me wrong, the kid throws in a decent fight, but can never seem to get it together past the second period. This clearly shows he is not ready for the NHL. To make this short, Without DP, We're doomed. Save your money and don't bother going to any more pending losses. The Big One. Plain and simple. This team needs DP at the Garden Monday night.

Seems like it would have been prudent to avoid any unnecessary jolts, landings, etc. Ah, well.

Not sitting back home while the boys were in buffalo. Knowing the way Rick is, if he was 100% fine, he would have fought to play, or at least be on the bench… salavating to get out there.
