Still not sure what happened to Mittelstadt.  It didn't look like anything happened to him, but the shift before the PP 1/2 way through the 2nd period, he just skated off the ice & straight down the tunnel.  Wonder if Gallagher's hacking him on the 2 on 1 w/ Hinostrosa broke something.

Never saw what happened to Jokiharju.  Wanted him and Dahlin separated but not this way.

Well stating the obvious, injuries happen every season and it's usually disappointing to have to adapt but it's early.  Let's hope that Mittelstadt and Jokiharju recover quickly and fully and come back strong and let's hope that the injury bug does not spread to anyone else.

Ruotsalainen and Butcher you're up and Borgen if you want to come back via waivers you will be welcome.

problem this season is there is not a lot of depth on the roster

Plus side - his replacement actually might not be too far off from his level right now (Ruotsalainen)

Down side - we had Casey at 1C. The replacement is closer than it should be because we were weak on C depth to begin with.

Right shot count also down to 2, on the defensive side. Injuries wreak even more havoc when depth chart is shaky to begin with.

Though, if anyone can keep team moral up through this, it's Granato.

Unlike previous squads who would have used an injury to a key player or two as an excuse to underachieve, I can’t see Granato letting them fall into that trap. Next man up. No sulking and feeling sorry for ourselves allowed.

Well that sucks. Feel for Mittlestadt.

Hopefully he stays connected to the team and rehabs and gets back to health soon. 

why wouldn't he stay connected to the team?
