Seabrook out tonight

60 Comments

Chicago coach Joel Quenneville just addressed the media and said that defenseman Brent Seabrook will not play tonight, although Quenneville declined to say whether Seabrook has a concussion, calling it an “upper-body injury.”

Seabrook had to leave Wednesday’s game in the second period after a big hit from Anaheim’s James Wisniewski, who got an eight-game suspension. That led to some, um, interesting comments from Ducks GM Bob Murray, who today a conference call said, “I played in Chicago a long time. … It used to be a black-and-blue town. It didn’t have whiners” and “I strongly suggest Joel worries about his goaltending and stops trying to run the NHL.”

Asked about those comments a couple minutes ago, a clearly steamed Quenneville said, “I did hear about it, and it doesn’t deserve a comment.”
