The Cannon

Falcons Game 67: Points Lost and a Look Around the "A" - The Cannon
Points in the standings count as much in October as they do in March. When points slip away this time of year though, it stings just a little more. The Falcons got stung Saturday night, dropping a 3-1 verdict to the Adirondack Phantoms in Glens Falls, NY. Coming away with no points opened the gap to three points in the battle for the eighth playoff spot in the AHL's Eastern Conference.

Sanford Done, Wiz Concussed - The Cannon
The injury trail continues for the Jackets, as head coach Todd Richards has announced that Curtis Sanford has a "torn muscle" in his leg (almost certainly his quad) that will end his season. Allen York has, not surprisingly, been recalled once again. Look for him to get at least one or two starts as we stare down the final ten games of the regular season.

Game 74 Recap: Hats Off to (Roy) Harper (and/or RJ Umberger) - The Cannon
R.J. Umberger been mistreated, babe, by his game this season. But tonight, he shook 'em on down.

Oilers Recall Chris Vande Velde - Oil On Whyte
Vande Velde’s call-up is likely to help replace Shawn Horcoff in tomorrow’s game versus the Blue Jackets. Horcoff is said to be suffering from back spasms suffered late last game.

G76 Oilers at Blue Jackets - Lowetide
Ryan Whitney is once again the key. IF he’s healthy and mobile, then the Oilers top 4 should be good enough and Sutton as a depth option is fine.
