Darroll Powe injury update

In this Inquirer article about the Flyers' possible move to practice at the Wachovia Center on game days, we get this footnote:

Powe sidelined. Center Darroll Powe suffered a mild concussion after colliding with Atlanta's Jim Slater in the Flyers' 7-0 win Tuesday, general manager Paul Holmgren said. Powe appeared to hit his head on the boards, and he also suffered a bruised knee.

Holmgren said Powe was day to day.

The Flyers likely will promote Steve Downie or Jared Ross from the AHL Phantoms to play tonight against the Islanders. Stevens appeared to be leaning toward Downie.


Considering that Downie got FOUR assists last night, it's not surprising to see his name being discussed as a possiblity for our next callup. Ross had a great game last night also, including scoring our game-winning OT goal, but Downie was outstanding last night.
