Defenseman Marc Methot will be out for some time after an injury on Friday night. Methot blocked a shot with his hand, breaking his finger. "It exploded when he got hit by the puck. It was opened up to the point where ... well, I don't want to gross anybody out, but it was ugly. It exposed the tip, put it that way. They stitched it up, but the top part of it is broken," said coach Scott Arniel. He will be out of the lineup on Saturday.
