Penguins Lose Sabourin - Orpik Hurt

The Vancouver Canucks have claimed goaltender Dany Sabourin. Sabourin was waived yesterday to clear space on the 23 man roster for Chris Thorborn. Sabourin was the AHL's goalie of the year last season and had a very impressive camp for the Penguins. He will be missed, especially in Wilkes Barre-Scranton. He will most likely be the primary back-up to Roberto Luongo.

Brooks Orpik sustained a hand injury during a training camp scrimmage and it has gotten progressively worse. He will be out of the line-up for tomorrow night's home opener against the Philadelphia Flyers. It hasn't been determined if he will require surgery or not.
