Any word on Doug Murray's eye injury from last week?

[Brian]

Another eye injury?  Good lord somebody give that man a visor!!!!::idea::

[Brian]

Vesce got another assist last night.  Does anybody know what happened to Charlie Cook, he's gone from the Philadelphia roster.  Check out the AHL scoreboard of the Barons game, the opponent had a player score five goals and another player had 6 assists, wow!

[cbuckser]

Did Doug Murray suffer a new eye injury this month?  He has played in all five of the Barons' games this season.

Cook was listed on the roster when I checked the webpage just now (9:18 Sat. PM).

He is listed on the roster but hasn't played in several weeks!  Vesce picked up two more assists last night and Iggulden had an assist.  Hynes was not in the line-up for Portland.

in the coyotes-mighty ducks game today, now in progress, it looks like lenny replaced joseph after joseph gave up 3 goals on 11 shots. coyotes still losing 3-2 in the beginning of the third...

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

You may be right there.  I've been looking for his name in the results, but it isn't there.  Precious little info on the Phantoms webpage, tho.

I checked Trenton's roster and he's not listed there.

Injury maybe?

Cujo was pulled after the 1st, Lenny played the 2nd and 3rd periods.  He played pretty well.  Gave up 2 goals on 17 shots, but neither of them was really his fault.  First goal was a shortie by Anaheim.  Faceoff was in the Phoenix end.  Lenny stopped a quick shot after the faceoff, Anaheim picked up the rebound and shot again, he stopped the shot initially, but it trickled ino the crease behind him, and the anaheim player skated around poked it in.  None of the phoenix defenders got a body on anybody...it was ugly.

Second goal was with about :30 left in the game.  Leneveu was skating to the bench for the extra man, there was a turnover at center ice, puck was shot before he got back into position and slid by him for the goal.

Pretty good video of both goals at NHL.com

I was at the game yesterday and agree he played fairly well.  The last  goal was really bad luck for him, although the Ducks did hit two posts in the 2nd  period, so I guess 2 GA in 2 periods was about right for his performance.  He made some good saves in the 3rd including a sliding pad stacking save to rob Selanne.  He certainly didn't deserve the loss, as Phoenix outscored Anaheim 3-2 while he was in net.

From the Coyotes website-- LENEVEU TO START TUESDAY
Following Monday’s practice, Gretzky announced that rookie goaltender David LeNeveu would get the start in goal on Tuesday against the St. Louis Blues.

“David has been real good this season and we wanted to get him another game on this home stand,” said Gretzky.

Coyotes tie it up early in the third, 17:13 left

[Jacob '06]

Lenny picks up his first NHL win, 5-4 over the blues in OT

[DeltaOne81]

Coyotes win 5-4 in OT and Lenny get his first NHL win... glad it came in a game of hockey and not in a skills competition (shootout).

[Pace]

True enough, I didn't see all of the game, but that was not a particularly good performance from Lenny. Still, I'm happy he got his first NHL win.
