Bouillon Has Post-Concussion Symptoms

from Jim Diamond of the Examiner,
Some tough news out of Montreal Thursday, as Cyberpresse’s Richard Labbe caught up with Nashville Predators defenseman Francis Bouillon at a charity golf tournament. Bouillon told Labbe that after working out for the last few weeks, the symptoms of his post-concussion syndrome have returned and he has had to discontinue his workouts as a result.
In recent weeks, Predators President of Hockey Operations and General Manager David Poile as well as Head Coach Barry Trotz had been encouraged by Bouillon’s return to physical activity, but this most recent setback will throw even more questions into who will man the blue line for the Predators this season.

Habs go gently into that good night versus Predators

Not a great game for the Habs this evening, as they were blanked by the Predators 3-0. But hey, it happens. Nice to see Francis Bouillon tally two assists and get second star. Also nice to see Sergei “The Mobster” Kostitsyn get roundly booed each time he touched the puck.
My big takeaway from this game? Jarosalv Spacek looked lost. He was reasonably good for a brief few games, because his ice time was down in the wake of the return of #79. But with the absence of Markov, Spacek is being relied on for too many minutes, and his age is showing. He was out of position on two goals, and it was glaringly obvious. Not to mention he missed a perfect chance in close to score early on in the game.

From the CP via TSN,
The Montreal Canadiens are calling for an NHL rule change after defenceman Francis Bouillon suffered a shoulder injury from a hit in the dying seconds of overtime.
The Canadiens feel that Pittsburgh defenceman Sergei Gonchar should not have been allowed to take part in a shootout after he was called for boarding with 1.6 seconds left in the five-minute overtime in Montreal’s 4-3 win over the Penguins on Saturday night.
