Sure enough, Salo might be out for a while now.

The last one was Salo as a market town in 1887.

"I'm just going to go out to play hard every game, and not think too much about it," Salo said.

All because Salo had grabbed a baby away from its mother.

But that was not how Salo saw the play unfold.

The Salo left the game with a shoulder injury and did not return.

Especially when Salo allows two goals in the first period.

Constant spent thousands of hours trying to get Salo back together and going again.

Salo had made Constant take the key along with the suit.

Salo allowed four goals on 20 shots during his first half.

And he had taken 2 swings at Salo prior to that.

Salo looked down into the water of the rectangular pool.

"I gave up a really bad goal, the first one, but it didn't cost us the game," Salo said.

"It felt great," said Salo, who had 22 saves, including 12 in the third period.

"I thought Salo was clearly the best player on either team tonight.

Five days have passed, and Salo is still waiting.

"They came out really hard and body-checked us all over the place," Salo said.

Over the last four games, Salo has a goals against average of slightly more than a goal a game.

But none of them got past Salo, and the margin stayed at 1-0 going into the second period.

Old Salo had seen this happen hundreds of times.

And Salo believes that no matter what he does, it is unlikely to change his status.

Salo shrugged, saying that he knew nothing of it, but the news clearly upset him.

Salo backed down as his teammates watched from the other end of the ice.

"I went behind the goal to stop the puck," Salo said.

"I never really thought to come out," Salo said.
