Dunham is a decent back up BUT if this team is going to advance into the playoffs they need a healthy DP on his game 2) Still not certain that DP didn't sustain another concussion else the team would simply say so. The secretive way in which they are keeping this leads us to believe that at the very least he suffered a mild concussion( If you see the replay it seems impossible for him to not have!) Time will tell ofcourse how much of a lasting effct this will have on him. 3) As for tonight if Mike pulls out a win tonite in Sen country it will be HUGE! The Isles have a lot going against them: a) they never play well in Ottawa b) Ottawa is playing as well as they have all year c) The Isles haven't been the same team since the trade deadline(chemistry problem) d) Their back up will be playing. 4) These are the games that help define a team! Lets see if this group is really different that in years past when they would wilt in a contest like tonight! (PS Note our changed blog address) 1) Great news if true.
