The New York Rangers will be playing Wednesday's game against the New York Islanders at the Nassau Coliseum without their top star, Marian Gaborik, who left Monday's 5-2 win over Phoenix after a collision with Coyotes forward Petr Prucha. He also leads the team in his new york rangers jersey with 18 points in 12 games.
"He won't be playing tonight," Rangers coach John Tortorella told the media after Wednesday's morning. "I'm not going to get into what he has." P.A. Parenteau, a right wing who was leading the AHL with 8 goals, was recalled on Tuesday from Hartford and will play against the Islanders. "I have no idea" – That’s a reply from Tortorella when asked when Gaborik will be able to return to the lineup.

Bill Daly's statement on Oct.28
The deputy commissioner of the National Hockey League Bill Daly, state in that following words: "In Phoenix today, a tentative agreement was reached among the parties to amend the NHL's offer to purchase the Coyotes franchise out of bankruptcy, and a proposed order, mutually agreed to by the parties, will be filed with the Court seeking approval of the NHL's amended bid.
"If there is no objection from the parties involved, and subject to any potential objections and a hearing if necessary, the parties hope to close the sale of the Club to the NHL by Monday, Nov. 2. It remains the NHL's intention upon taking control of the Club to stabilize the Club's operations and, as quickly as possible, to re-sell the Club to a new owner who is committed to operating the Club in the Glendale/Phoenix market." But where can fans buy coyotes jerseys?

Colorado's Darcy Tucker left the ice with a concussion
Colorado Avalanche left wing Darcy Tucker was taken to a hospital with a concussion after taking a hit from the Carolina Hurricanes' Tuomo Ruutu at the second period in Friday night's game at the Pepsi Center. The Avalanche reported that Tucker had regained consciousness and was fully alert. "We know he suffered a concussion," coach Joe Sacco said after the Avs' 5-4 victory. "He was alert and he was moving, so those are positive signs.”
Tucker fell on his back and lay on the ice for several minutes and taken to the hospital. "The League will take care of it," said Carolina coach Paul Maurice. "I'm a huge Darcy Tucker supporter, so I hope he's OK." "Ruutu's got a history," said Foote, the Avs' captain. "He hits late, he hits from behind. So I felt like it was probably dirty if your guy is laying there." Hope he will return to the team in his avalanche jersey soon.

Wakefield's surgery is a success
Tim Wakefield, who spent the entire season limping because of a loose fragment in his lower back, underwent successful surgery at Massachusetts General Hospital on Wednesday. Wakefield's herniated disc was repaired and the fragment removed, making the right-hander to have a productive offseason. The 43-year-old Wakefield stated late in the season that he decides to play at least one more year.
According to a Red Sox spokesperson, Wakefield (in red sox jersey) can start his rehab immediately, and he should be fully recovered before the start of Spring Training. "Wake is someone that is in our plans, and we hope he makes starts for us next year and is a member of the rotation," general manager Theo Epstein said the day after the Red Sox were eliminated from the ALDS. "We haven't sat down and finalized anything. Obviously, we want to see how the surgery goes, and then both sides will sit down and talk."
