LEHTONEN RE-INJURES GROIN!

Kari Lehtonen re-injured his groin and was pulled 11:30 into the first period in Atlanta’s 5-3 win over the Rangers tonight. In an interview after the game, Don Waddell was quoted as saying “certainly, he’ll be out a while.”

What does this mean for the 1-6 Thrashers? Possible call-ups from Chicago are Fred Brathwaite (0-2, or Ondrej Pavelec. My money’s on Pavelec. He’s started both games for the Wolves this year, posting a 1.49 GAA and a .935 save % while going 2-0.
