Your game in 10:
1. It’s not the note we wanted to start on, but we’d be remiss not to cover it. Whether this is more precautionary than serious remains to be seen, but we couldn’t get through camp and to the first regular season game without a Joseph Woll lower-body injury, seemingly again of the non-contact variety. What else needs to be said at this point outside of the old cliche about availability being the best ability? Once an accident, twice a coincidence, three times a pattern…
Coming off a three-year contract extension that doesn’t kick in until next year, and after Brad Treliving and Craig Berube were constantly asked about his durability all preseason as they kept Woll’s workload quite light, this was a game-day gut punch, not of the gravity of last May’s Game 7, but a similar sort of untimely curveball.
