Radek Martinek to Miss 4-6 Weeks; Blake Comeau Sent to Bridgeport

Radek Martinek will miss 4-6 weeks with an "upper-body injury" (OY!), likely a shoulder injury suffered against St. Louis in the first period, after a hit by David Backes.

Also, young forward Blake Comeau has been sent down to Bridgeport after reportedly arriving to camp out of shape and with a bit of an attitude problem, although Scott Gordon only commented on his conditioning. After sitting out the first 3 games of the season, apparently Gordon has decided the best choice would be to have him play a few more AHL games before coming back up to try out the NHL.
