Things Not Looking Up for Tucker
There doesn't appear to be any good news on the Darcy Tucker injury front, actually, it regressed. He showed up today to practice wearing a cast. No timetable has been set on his expected return to the lineup. This new scenario hurts the Leafs in 2 ways. Firstly, he's one of the top players on the team, who desperately need his scoring touch and grit. If they are to get into the playoffs, they need him healthy and in the lineup. The second way it hurts the Leafs, if they choose to go this route, is that his trade value is decreasing. The trade deadline is approaching and if he is out for an extended period of time, teams may not want to chance giving up prospects or high draft picks.
