Joseph leaves games with ankle injury

Associated Press
2/11/2004

DETROIT (AP) - Detroit Red Wings goaltender Curtis Joseph left Wednesday night's game against San Jose in the first period with a sprained right ankle.

Joseph was knocked over by the Sharks forward Jonathan Cheechoo, who tripped and fell into Joseph's legs in the first period. Joseph had surgery on Aug. 19, to remove bone chips from his right ankle.

It was Detroit's first game since Dominik Hasek announced his injured groin would not allow him to play for the remainder of the season.

That announcement made Joseph the Red Wings' unquestioned No. 1 goaltender this season. He was replaced Wednesday night by Manny Legace.

Broken leg sidelines Blake indefinitely

Associated Press
2/10/2004

DENVER (AP) - Colorado Avalanche defenceman Rob Blake has broken his left leg and will be out indefinitely.

Blake says he's not sure when it happened, but he thinks it may have been caused by a shot he stopped.

``Rob underwent medical testing yesterday, confirming that he has a hairline fracture in his lower left leg, which will result in him being out for an indefinite period of time,'' said Head Athletic Trainer Pat Karns. ``This time missed will allow for the leg to completely heal."

``I'm a little surprised just because I was playing on it and getting some things done on it,'' Blake said before Colorado's game against the New York Islanders. ``It wasn't getting any better. It was getting worse and worse, so it was time to get it looked at.''

The veteran all-star ranks second among NHL defencemen with 40 points, behind only Washington's Sergei Gonchar, and he is tied for third with 11 goals.

``He's definitely having a Norris-type season,'' teammate Adam Foote said. ``He's doing it all. He's getting points. He's coming up with big hits, big plays at the right time. He's been there every night for us.''

The Avalanche called up defenceman Brett Clark from the minors to fill Blake's roster spot. Clark has eight goals and 16 assists in 50 games with the Hershey Bears.

Red Wings' Joseph out at least a week

Associated Press
2/12/2004

DETROIT (AP) - Red Wings goalie Curtis Joseph, placed on injured reserve Thursday, will be out a week to 10 days with a sprained ankle.

Detroit recalled Marc Lamothe, who has an 18-12-5 record with Grand Rapids of the AHL, to take Joseph's roster spot.

Joseph left Wednesday's game against San Jose after the first period because of a sprained right ankle. He was knocked over by the Sharks' Jonathan Cheechoo, who tripped and fell into Joseph's legs in the first period. Joseph had surgery on Aug. 19 to remove bone chips from the same ankle.

It was Detroit's first game since Dominik Hasek announced his injured groin would not allow him to play for the remainder of the season.

That left Joseph the Red Wings' unquestioned No. 1 goaltender this season - after the team tried to trade him for months and put him on waivers twice.

Joseph was replaced Wednesday night by Manny Legace. Detroit won 4-2.
