Some news out of Portland tonight, where the P-Bruins are taking on the Pirates. Apparently Malcolm Subban has been injured and is being taken to a local hospital:

No word on this from the team yet. Zane McIntyre will get the start, and media at the rink are not sure yet who Providence's backup will be. This has not been a good couple few weeks for Bruins goalies, that's for sure.
UPDATE:
Here is the emergency backup goalie for the P Bruins, Joe Parker. Apparently he is a mens league goalie who had his gear in his car, and didn't mind getting his seats upgraded!
Before this, the P Bruins had Benn Ferriero as the backup goalie, a 28 year old forward who has played 7 games with the Baby B's
.@AHLBruins are currently using Benn Ferriero has a backup G at the moment. He's not in gear. He's just sitting where the backup sits.
