I really thought Ovie wasn't going to make it about two weeks ago but he's really been on a tear. Let's hope the Protas injury isn't as bad as it looked. That would be a huge loss.

I was going to inquire if anyone had heard anything regarding Protus?
Yeah, missing him from playoffs would hurt some kind of bad. When I saw the "injury" It looked like achilles to me (having suffered a minor strain to mine at one point.....thereby making me an expert) That would be horrific and about worst case....Did someone else say this already? Seems like I saw that somewhere, but don't recall if that was here or elsewhere.
Anyway...I heard Joe B and the gang speculating after the game and they seemed to think he caught a skate across the boot?
I've watched the replay several times and I can't see any contact at all...he just bends down and grabs at his ankle.
I did find a clip of them taking team photo in locker room with Ovi and big Pro is there, standing, so hopefully it's just something minor.
