- Obviously, this means that Kari Lehtonen’s first start in nearly a year has not gone very well. He’s allowed 5 goals on 28 shots - a mixture of goals that were his fault and goals in which his defense hung him out to dry (I imagine some Stars fans are nodding knowingly). The Penguins aren’t exactly an ideal team for a rusty goalie.
- Minnesota Star Tribune Michael Russo reporter just Tweeted that Derek Boogaard will indeed be suspended for 2 games. Here are a few of Russo’s recent Tweets:
“Boogaard loses $21,341.46 of salary bc he’s now a repeat offender. Loses salary based on games, not days.”
Boogaard:"It wasn’t like it was an intent to injure or anything ... . Was just finishing my hit. It’s not like I’m going out to hurt guys.”
