Several others have missed 1 or 2 games with injuries resulting in the GeeGees worst game of the season in London when they played with only 2 1/2 lines. It holds well for them that others like Jalbert, Forster, Marcoux, Layton and Oulette have stepped up their game but missing their top 3 forwards will make it tough to be a contender.

I know saturday if we had Louis-Seize, Wright and Farrow in the lineup, would have been a much more exciting game with Ottawa, possibly even beat them. Just didn't have the bodies capable of doing it and didn't test Abbott enough.
