Cole Out 3-4 Weeks After Tearing Muscle
Feb 21, 2007
Raleigh, N.C. — Carolina Hurricanes wing Erik Cole will miss three to four weeks after tearing a muscle during warm-ups Tuesday night, coach Peter Laviolette said.
Laviolette said the tear was in the same area as the hip pointer that Cole suffered last month. He wasn't sure whether the two injuries are related.
Cole missed the Jan. 30 game with a hip pointer and sat out three more games after aggravating it in a Feb. 8 collision.
Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Atlanta Thrashers dropped the Hurricanes to eighth overall in the Eastern Conference standings, only one point ahead of the New York Islanders and Toronto Maple Leafs for the final playoffs spot.
