A first, a reply to my own message!
 
In a private, unattributable (kind of like Deep Throat) e-mail, I was
informed that Greg Quebec did not break his ankle but his injury was severe
enough to have screws put in.  His recovery period is 6-8 weeks at best, he
hopes to be back by playoff time.
 
O'Connell is out for a few games apparently and Vuori also suffered a
shoulder injury, how severe is not known.
 
This information is from someone I never corresponded with before but I
suppose it is reliable.  To follow the "All the President's Men", if
anybody can confirm this information (even on deep background), I and the
list would appreciate it.
 
Thanks.
 
Greg Ambrose
