Following the news that top blueliner Duncan Keith will miss time with injury, we look into how the Blackhawks will be able to piece together their defense corps and whether it'll ultimately impact their standing in the highly contested Central division.

We also look back at the dreadful decision by the Rangers to re-sign Dan Girardi in lieu of keeping Anton Stralman, and whether his contract is amongst the worst 5 contracts in the league. Plus, Patrick Roy makes an appearance with some rather suspect comments about his team's possession game.
