Niemi and Havlat still on hold

No news is as much good news as we?ll get about the Sharks? injured players today:

?From my understanding, he?s close,? said McLellan, before adding he still hadn?t talked to the team trainers or doctors yet about his number one netminder. -Sharks Talk


Eeek gads but that is discouraging.  Time to interview the doctors, guys.  Get on that, would you?

News on Havlat is better but no more conclusive.  Saturday before the game, he was on the ice early and late, ending with some board work in the corners with Vandermeer and McLaren.  As expected, there was a lot of pushing and shoving involved in that.  According to Kurz, he was out there for the full practice today.  So that all sounds good. Still, waiting for strength to return is a slow thing.  So I won?t expect him back on Friday, but he will be back.
