You can probably kiss any chance of a W against Ottawa goodbye. Im not saying MArkov will be the deciding factor, but he will be a big hole gone that wont be able to be filled. Bad enough Bonk, Kovalev, Souray and the gang arent exactly doing good health wise as it is. We cannot afford to lose our best D-man this year. Even if what he did in my opinion was just. It proves that our team is pissed, and coming from a guy like markov who normally is a quiet guy...i think that says alot. Montreal will be looking for a good game against Ottawa. They are pissed and who better than to make a statement against than Ottawa?!
