Dealing with injuries is part of life in the NHL, but there is one position that makes coping way more difficult than others.
Over the weekend, news emerged that the Ottawa Senators had forward Artem Anisimov dress in goaltending gear after losing scheduled starter Anton Forsberg to injury during pregame warmups and losing scheduled backup Matt Murray less than five minutes into the second period. That would be the equivalent of the Wings losing Jonathan Bernier and Thomas Greiss.
Losing two NHL-tested goaltenders is somewhat alleviated this season by taxi squads, but only to a degree.
