Philadelphia - Simon Gagne finally returned to the Flyers line-up after a bout of 'dizziness' and promptly lasted two periods before exiting with symptoms like, 'dizziness'. It's pretty evident that Gagne is suffering concussion like symptoms from a hit almost three weeks ago. he's improving, but expect him to be out for quite some time. The benefactors of advancing on the roster are Joffrey Lupul and Mike Richards. The Flyers generally will miss Gagne's scoring ability. Mike Knuble likely the most, as he is the one that gets the "garbage" after Gagne and Briere attempt to create offensively
Fantasy Impact:
Lupul - positive
Knuble - negative
Briere - even
Flyers offense - negative
Buffalo - hard to imagine the offensive starved Sabres could been in a worse condition, but after hearing that Tim Connolly is out with an oblique muscle, well, it got worse. Look for the Sabres forwards to try and step up, but the depth on the team is clearly being tested. Daniel Paille, Jochan Hecht and McArthur should get extra minutes, but on a team with a shaky confidence offensively (see Tomas Vanek, it might be a tough ride until Connolly returns.
Fantasy Impact:
Paille - positive
Pominville - negative
Hecht - even
Vanek - negative
Sabres PP - negative
