The latest injury for Stars goalie Ben Bishop likely will make the club review his off-season conditioning program.

The combination of age (32), size (6 feet 7) and up-and-down nature of the position make Bishop vulnerable to soft-tissue injuries such as strains to the hip flexor, groin and hamstring.

"We have to look at his off-season training,'' coach Jim Montgomery said. "He's getting to the age where these type of injuries happen more and more. We have to re-evaluate how he trains in the summer so that we can try to avoid this.''
