I believe he was. Nothing was formally announced as him being injured, but I can think of a few occurrences where he blocked a shot and they either got up very slowly or was noticeably favouring that body part the rest of the evening (hand, leg). I think he was nursing some sort of injury.

Also, how has he looked this season. Does he look like he has any chance of becoming a useful NHLer at some point?

Health is a big concern with him. He's constantly getting banged up, whether small things or larger injuries that keep him out. It's hard to judge his play when he is out being hurt or when he does play, given very sheltered minutes. I don't think he's played a minute heavy game in a couple months now and he hasn't earned a full time D-man spot, he was still rotating with the first year guys. He desperately needed to stay healthy this year to catch up on what he lost last year with the injury and he can't.
I'm starting to become skeptical of him making the NHL at this point. I don't think he has the durability to play against those caliber players.
