Darren Dreger has tweeted that Peter Chiarelli, in Boca Raton, Florida for the NHL GM meetings, is saying Marc Savard could be done for the entire season as a result of the Grade 2 concussion he sustained from the blindside elbow he took from Pittsburgh’s Matt Cooke on Sunday. Whether this is for real or Chiarelli is obbying for a stiffer suspension on Cooke remains to be seen.
Ironically, a hot topic of those very same meetings is the NHL’s stance on blows to the head.
How timely.
