New York Rangers' Marc Staal out indefinitely after eye injury
NEW YORK,[url=http://www.yubikeys.net/]true religion sale[/url], March 6 () -- New York Rangers defenseman Marc Staal will be out of the lineup indefinitely as he recovers from taking a puck to the eye, the team said Wednesday. Staal was hurt during the third period of Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers when he was hit in the right eye by puck off a deflected slap shot launched by defenseman Kimmo Timonen. He immediately fell to the ice, writhing in pain while holding a hand over his eye.The Rangers said an examination performed Wednesday by an ophthalmologist and a maxillofacial surgeon revealed Staal's condition had improved, with the doctors expressing optimism he will make a full recovery.Staal does not wear a visor and the incident has re-ignited a debate on whether such face shields should be mandatory in the NHL, as they are in most other levels of organized hockey.The players' union is opposed to mandating their use,[url=http://www.fbrecs.com/]Jimmy Choo Sale[/url], but the league is pushing for a rule requiring visors. "The league continues to support a rule that would make visors mandatory in NHL games," Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly said in an email to The New York Times.
