A USC would seem reasonable, but probably not getting that call at High School Varsity, let alone an NHL game....but lets say he hits the ice awkward and hurts himself or tangles up his leg and hurts his knee.

A 1-0 win today vaults the Pool into 12th place, at least according to the Live Table. Still only 5 points about relegation, but with 4 games to go and a bunch of teams below them, I'm hoping they are ok.
