Aittokallio took a puck to the eyebrow area without a mask at practice so he might not be 100%.
What the hell is he doing without his mask anyway? I'm assuming this was no where near the net? I don't even want the hint of another head injury with another top prospect.
I'm cool with it. I can't help but see one of them getting shipped off though.
I hope not. We have so many ****** defenseman in the NHL so we need these two.

I don't think it was serious, I think it was just a bruise.

Still, the sound of pucks hitting eyebrows, or temples, or anywhere in that region is a little disconcerting. I'm way too sensitized to Av players and the C word. Especially when they always downplay them, or say it's nothing, or say they're symptom free.
Any chance Barrie and Pock will see time with the Avs after the lockout? Barrie looks about NHL ready in both ends and Pock looks like a guy who could establish himself as a 5-7 guy on most teams in the league.

I thought Barrie looked pretty good in his few NHL games last year. Still a few things to work on, but the guy has a good set of tools.

I think Barrie and Elliott will get some time with the Avs. I don't think Pock will play with the Avs but if he does continue to impress I hope they at least give him a chance because he can't be any worse than what we already have on defense.
