The IR: Wednesday

A lot of injuries to get caught up on.

*-> The Atlanta Thrashers have lost franchise player Ilya Kovalchuk for a month do to a fracture in his ankle. A huge blow for the Thrashers but good news for Thrasher fans Jason Krog has been called up. Hardly a replacement if I may say so.

*-> TJ Oshie of St Louis Blues will miss up to 2 weeks after having his appendix removed.

*-> The slow start of Philadelphia Flyer forward Simone Gagne could be attributed to the 2 hernias that Gagne is suffering from. Gagne and the team have yet to decide the next route as surgery is required but they may decide to hold off untill a replacement is found.

*-> Peter Budaj of the Colorado Avalanche has the swine flu and is expected to miss up to 2 weeks.
