Injury Update-According to Tarik El Bashir of the Washington Post, Mike Green will have an MRI today or tomorrow to determine the extent of his shoulder injury.

Caps win 6-4 over Ducks, lose Green




The Caps 6-4 victory over the Ducks last night in Anaheim,could be a costly one. Mike Green absorbed a hard hit from Chris Pronger late in the first period,violently sending him shoulder first into the end boards. Green did not return and was seen walking around the locker room after the game in a shoulder sling. Green and the Caps hope to know more this morning after the morning skate. Green's injury does not necessarily mean a recall is iminante. The Caps hope Shaone Morrisonn will be able to return to the lineup. It also appears Tyler Sloan will be staying with the Caps a little bit longer. I'll post an update as soon as more is learned on Mike Green's injury.
