It was Saturday that Ottawa's second goalie Anton Forsberg was carried out on a stretcher after getting Edmonton Oilers forward Zach Hyman over him.
A few hours later, the club's general manager Pierre Dorion announced that Forsberg had torn the internal ligaments in his knees and will thus miss the rest of the season.
A heavy message to leave to the fans considering that the first goalkeeper Cam Talbot is already on the injury list with a lower body injury from before.
In their absence, others have been given the chance to shine and you can't complain about the results so far.
On Sunday, Dane Mads Sögaard saved 34 shots in the victory game against Calgary, and last night fourth goalie Kevin Mandolese stepped up and saved 46 shots when Ottawa was able to pick up the team's second straight victory after the 6-3 loss against Edmonton.

He wasn't afraid of the moment, Ottawa coach DJ Smith told NHL.com.
