We did not make any moves. There were a couple players out there who were offered (to us) but they were veteran players.
More Quotes from David Franke:
We think it is a positive for the city to have the United Hockey League's All-Star game. We think it's a positive for our fans to see the best players in the league. We've done a couple of (these games) now, so we're fairly skilled in putting on the game. It will be a fun night for our fans.David Franke
In the interim, we'll probably change our lines around a little bit. There's no way we're going to replace him over the weekend. How we replace him, we're unsure at this time. We don't know if maybe we can get somebody who's in Europe now and wants to come back (to North America), or maybe we make a trade to acquire an offensive forward.

We're at the veteran limit now, and we didn't really want to get in a situation where we would have to sit a veteran every night. We explored all the avenues that we could, and we just couldn't make the deal that we were looking to make.

I'm very disappointed. We made the commitment to Mark in the summer when he signed on board. He told me personally (Thursday) that it had nothing to do with the team, the players on the team or the coach. He just felt this was an opportunity he could not refuse and he was going to take it.

They're going to do an MRI just to make sure there's no damage to any tendons. I'm not sure when the MRI will be done probably in the next couple days. Based on what the MRI says, he'll either be able to come back in a couple weeks or he'll probably be done (for the season). Right now, we're looking at him being out a couple weeks. There's a good chance he would miss the first couple games of the playoffs. But we'll know more after the MRI is done.

It's a situation where we can't provide the ice time for Jeff. And he's never complained about his ice time. Never. He's always taken what was dealt him and handled it really well. We can't give him the ice time he needs.
