Oilers lose Souray for season: Edmonton Oilers defenseman Sheldon Souray will miss the rest of the season with a left shoulder injury, the team announced Tuesday. It comes a week after the team announced Shawn Horcoff would be out for the season with a shoulder injury. Souray underwent arthroscopic surgery last week after being placed on injured reserve. Souray has been hampered with shoulder problems since suffering a second-degree sprain during a game at Vancouver last October 13. Tom Gilbert will likely take over Souray's spot in the top defensive pairing with Joni Pitkanen. (Updated 02/13/2008).
Injury Report
Shoulder - Probable for start of training camp (Updated - 5/10/08)
Fantasy Analysis
Souray is in his first year with the Oilers after signing a five-year, $27-million deal in July following a career-high 64 points with Montreal last season. He has three goals and seven assists in 26 games but when healthy he is a solid No. 2 Fantasy defenseman. Release him in all but keeper formats now that is he definitely out for the season.
