The next few weeks are going to be tough, without the best goalie in the league and Matthews (or at best a sub-par Matthews). I expect Matthews to be out for a while longer, just based on Berube talking about how he is "progressing." In any case, the chances of taking first in the division look to be pretty much gone. Make the playoffs, get everyone healthy, make some deadline additions and see what happens.
Oh, and fix the damn PP...
