Thanks Key Lime for the update. A close personal friend of mine works at the General part-time as a nurse abd she's working today.  She's gonna try to find out the latest ... after her shift today.

 Heard that Saks is at home but not traveling with the team and won't play in Carolina.

Koivu returns home; not cleared to play


TSN.ca Staff

Saku Koivu returned home from the hospital yesterday, but contrary to a published report in a Montreal newspaper today, Koivu is not yet in the clear and most definitely is not scheduled to return to the Carolina-Montreal series.


The Canadiens are encouraged Koivu has been released from hospital, but is still undergoing tests on his damaged eye. Those tests cannot be completed yet because there remains too much blood in and behind the eye, so it's likely another day or two at least before a definitive prognosis can be made.


A source close to the Canadiens described as "ludicrous" the report that suggested Koivu is a strong possibility to return to face Carolina in the playoffs.


Koivu was struck by an accidental high-stick from Justin Williams while rushing to the net to accept a pass from Chris Higgins in the second period of the Hurricanes' 2-1 overtime win on Wednesday night.


Williams tried to lift Koivu's stick, but missed and the stick shot up under the Finnish centre's visor. Koivu dropped to the ice, clutching the bleeding eye, then rushed off the ice for treatment.

Well I guess I can't trust my PEI source anymore.
Anyway, still seems like good news so far.

It's not just your home sources, the entire Montreal media has been sending out mixed signals each and every day. I'll believe that Saku returns when he and BG say so; not before. Meanwhile let's be glad for Begin's return, and keep the good thoughts and/or prayers out there for our Capt.

GO HABS GO!!!
