pazzloski 7 Report post Posted May 18, 2009 Just read this on TSN. "Martin Havlat skipped practice but head coach Joel Quenneville says he's fine and will play in Game 2 Tuesday night. One Chicago-based TV reporter says she saw Havlat limping when he entered the arena on Monday. - TSN" http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/feature/?id=11009 Anyone have any idea when this could have happened? Apparently its not a big deal but i don't think that i can recall at what point during the game he would have gotten hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicely done! i believe kronner went to hit someone and missed.. ended up colliding with havlat. Yeah he did and it was really weird looking, initially I thought Kronner was going to get the worst of it but Havlat didn't get up and they had to stop play. He must have twisted something (or something like that) because it wasn't much of a collision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rick zombo 3,739 Report post Posted May 18, 2009 It was definitely because of a collision he had with Kronwall. He wasn't the same after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted May 18, 2009 From wikipedia dot com: "Nickname in the Czech Republic is Martin "The Hands" Havlat." Maybe they're the only parts of his body he hasn't hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NGKEIB 32 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 Havlat sat out practice, and was seen limping around. PÃ¥hlsson, Walker and Keith also missed the practice. Keith missed the practice before game one too. PÃ¥hlsson wouldn't say why he has sat out so many practices, but hinted that it wasn't the mono he had had earlier. Several other players apparently had ice bags and wraps too. Taken from MLive: http://blog.mlive.com/snapshots/2009/05/bl...lat_on_the.html Havlat is probably hurt from the Kronwall (mis-)hit, but I assume that the others are from injuries/fatigue sustained in their earlier series. I guess going through Calgary and Vancouver has a price... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NGKEIB 32 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 Though I can't say I feel bad for them (except maybe PÃ¥hlsson, because he's new to the team and it's not making gelling with them any easier) - anyone think if Walker's crosschecks on Draper were made with the knowledge that Draper was coming off of an injury? Or was it just plain ol' frustration? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
