why would you go a head and say that? As a goalie you need to instill confidence in your team that you can stop the puck. There is a reason why Curtis Mchilenny (no idea how to spell that) couldnt win a single game with the Flames.
Claiming you are playing injured kinda kills your team's confidence in you, which is never a good thing. Especially in the middle of a playoff series. There is a reason why teams do not disclose injuries at this point in the year. Teams will hone in on weaknesses and exploit them. And that is something you definitly dont disclose right before an elimination game where your back is against the wall.
