Hurtin' Unit

TSN.ca is reporting that Carlo "I'm more injury prone than Forsberg, Havlat, and Gaborik combined" Colaiacovo will miss the next 4 to 6 weeks with a torn groin muscle. Not that this affects the team that much, already being out of the playoff race, but this guy has got to start doing more conditioning or working out or stretching or something. Fuck Carlo, you play about 30 games a season, and you've injured every part of your body it seems.

Staffan Kronwall has been called up to replace the injured Colaiacovo, who will miss the rest of the season unless the planets align and the Leafs win their final 8 games of the season and the four teams ahead of them do really shitty. Not likely.

Colaiacovo played 28 games this season and had two goals and four assists. In the six years he has been in the NHL he has played just 101 games...that's ridonculous!

Sundin and Antropov are still at least one week away from returning, and Boyd Devereaux could be returning within the next few games as well.

Friday & Saturday Back-to-Back Games: The Leafs finish off their three game road trip this weekend when they travel to Buffalo and Ottawa to (I guess) try to gain as much ground as possible.

- Buffalo has won their past three games, including a 6-2 win over the Leafs last Saturday, and are coming off a crazy comeback to win 7-4 last night after scoring six unanswered goals in the 3rd period.
- The Leafs are 6-0-1 in their last 7 road games.
- Ottawa sucks, their captain is a red-head and their best player killed his friend in a car crash.
