a guy on the other board has a friend who works in the bell center who saw something very interesting:

"A guy I know that works at the Bell Centre said he saw Kovalev walking around on crutches; that 'tweak' that we've heard about may be more serious than we know. Anyway, it's from a pretty reliable source, but still, take it with a grain of salt as always."

Kovalev hasn't been himself at all these past few games. Seems like everything is rolling the Canes way. If we can come back from this, what does that say about our team's character.
