The first one bites the dust...

Darren Dreger has just tweeted that Simon Gagne was injured the first day of camp and is not expected to return. Jeez, maybe they were right about the whole insurance issue?

I doubt this seriously impedes his chances of making the team, but as a guy who's definitely on the bubble, it's got to kill him to not be out there.

  2. Another anonymous commenter. Hiding behind the anonymous label is gutless and what you say will be disregarded by not only us, but Stevie Y, Coach Babcock and anyone else that makes the decisions on this team!
