| 2/9/2010 | Marian Gaborik, RW, NYR | Gaborik limped off at practice on Tuesday after the New York Rangers' leading scorer was cut on the right knee by the ice skate of goalie Henrik Lundqvist in a collision. Gaborik skated in on Lundqvist during a breakaway drill and tried to jump over his teammate's outstretched leg when contact was made. The Slovakian right wing, who has a team-high 35 goals and 69 points, fell to the ice and stayed down for a few moments. Analysis: Gaborik skated off slowly with assistance and didn't put weight on his right leg. He received stitches at the practice facility, but didn't require X-rays.

Gaborik is also slated to play for Slovakia at the Vancouver Olympics. |

Analysis: Kadri had 26 goals and 66 points in 42 games with the London Knights of the Ontario Hockey League. "He skated well," Leafs coach Ron Wilson said. "This was a great opportunity for him to see what the NHL is all about. He had a lot of turnovers, and things he can probably get away with in junior hockey, you can't get away with in our league, let alone against a top team in the league." |

"I thought we outplayed a pretty good team," Giguere said.
