Updated: Clutterbuck Boogaard out; Scott in
Posted by: Michael Russo under Wild game coverage Updated: December 7, 2009 - 8:06 PM
UPDATED: They're saying Derek Boogaard's sick, which is bizarre since he was perfectly fine and came over early to the rink with the rest of the team. Nevertheless, Boogaard's out, as well as Cal Clutterbuck, who was going to try to give it a go but can't. That means John Scott's in and either he or Jaime Sifers will play forward potentially.
Boogaard and Clutterbuck are roommates, so this plague is clearly contagious.
