A lot of puzzles come in pieces, and as Florida Panther Keaton Ellerby said Tuesday, “We know it’s a big piece of the puzzle that went missing Monday night.”
Ellerby, speaking after Tuesday’s practice in Coral Springs following Monday’s 3-2 shootout loss to the Boston Bruins, was referring to veteran defender – probably broke it – during a first-period fight with Daniel Paille, and he could miss substantial time. The fight was Jovanovski’s first of the season and it will keep him from going on the Panthers’ upcoming three-game road trip.
So, in the overall picture, Jovanovski’s counter-punching against the Bruins turned out to be counter-productive.
“He’s going to see a specialist Wednesday morning and won’t be going on the road trip with us,” coach Kevin Dineen said. “He’ll be getting an evaluation and a diagnosis and a length of treatment, so we’ll wait until Wednesday to make any statement on that.”
Is Dineen confident, readily admitted the season has been frustrating. “It’s never fun to sit out and watch,” he said of minimal playing time. “It’s been a long year so far personally."
Nevertheless, he said he has been learning -- particularly from Jovanovski. He.
THEODORE TO TRAVEL
Goalie Jose Theodore skated Tuesday and Dineen said he would make the upcoming road trip, which begins Wednesday at the Avalanche.
The Panthers sent goalie Brian Foster back to San Antonio, and Dineen said, “That’s a fairly telling statement. I wouldn’t send him back unless Theo was close. But it’s really day to day and I haven’t got today’s report.”
Asked if he expected Theodore to play on the road trip, Dineen said, “I do.”
STRONG FINISH?
The Panthers have won only one of their past five games and are trying to put that behind them and finish with a flourish in their four games before the All-Star break.
“We want to finish up strong,” Dineen said. “We look at the next four games as extremely important to us. That really has been our focus since our Christmas break, but it hasn’t gone great in the standings or on the scoreboard so far. “
FORWARD HO
The Panthers have gotten suddenly healthy at the forward position. Marco Sturm (concussion), Jack Skille (shoulder), Scottie Upshall (hip) and Sean Bergenheim (groin) have all been practicing.
Sturm is the only one who will not make the road trip.
Dineen said “there are no guarantees” on who will get playing time. “No matter what language you speak, we can all count. If there are 14 healthy forwards, that means there will be two out,” Dineen said.
Injuries duck, ey? Wonder how the chemistry will be affected by all the returning players--something like the beginning of the season?
On Jovo: first signs of life we see from him all season long. Unfortunately, he busts his hand; however, I think the team rallied around that scrap.

yesCoach Kyle Shanahan – and his father before him – has experienced success with running backs who were not high draft picks.
A year ago, some thought the 49ers might use their top pick on Leonard Fournette. But Fournette was not among the Top 3 players on the team’s draft board. The 49ers selected defensive lineman Solomon Thomas with the No. 3 overall pick after trading back one spot with the Chicago Bears.
The Jacksonville Jaguars selected Fournette with the No. 4 selection. Fournette is likely to return to action Sunday against the 49ers at Levi’s Stadium after missing a game with a quadriceps injury.
“It’s been proven that you can get guys (running backs) later,” Shanahan said on Wednesday. “But that by no means makes it that I’m going to say we’re never going to draft a running back high.”
Fournette leads the Jaguars (10-4) with 923 yards rushing and eight touchdowns as a rookie. He has also caught 29 passes for 213 years.
“When you find a special one (running back) and you think that makes sense for your team, you should never hesitate to do that,” Shanahan said.

ROLL CONFIGURATIONS
The roll configurations shown are representative of the most common methods of roller coating used in industry today. Double coaters, such as Models A and B, apply coating from the top and bottom rolls to both sides of the material (but can be used as single top or bottom coaters). Single coaters, such as Models C and D, apply coating from the top or bottom of the rolls onto only one side of the material.
The liquid coating in Model A is held in the crotch or trough formed by the coating and doctor rolls. As the rolls rotate, the material is metered through and a controlled amount of coating is applied to both sides.
Coating material for the top coating roll in Model B is held in the trough or crotch formed by the coating and doctor rolls. The bottom roll receives the coating material from the pan in which it runs. The coating material for Model C is held in the top crotch or trough with the pan underneath.
In Model D, the coating material is held in the pan in which the roll runs.
A wide variety of roll coverings are available, including Neoprene, gelatin, Thiokol, Urethane and plated steel. The rolls are usually smooth ground but can be corrugated depending on the type of material used for coating and the amount to be applied.
HOT ROLL LAMINATORS
This particular machine was designed to laminate a protective plastic onto one or both sides of EPS foam core. Both foam and film pass through a set of heated teflon-coated rolls at a precision-controlled temperature and speed for greater accuracy and effeciency. Quick change chucks and air brakes ensure proper tension on the film while it is being laminated.
ADHESIVE ROLLER COATER
This machine was specifically designed to apply water and solvent based or phenollic resin adhesive to the top/or bottom surface of clutch and brake facing plates in a single pass.
SPECIAL APPLICATION COATERS
Union Tool's expertise in roller coating technology enables us to design and build coaters to meet virtually any special need. Many times an existing machine can be adapted for a special application with a minimum of additional tooling.The story of Dorothée Pullinger has recently started to gain attention mainly for her pioneering work as a woman in engineering before the First World War and for designing the Galloway car in the 1920s, as a “Car for women built by others of their sex”. She was the first woman to be inducted into the Scottish Engineering Hall of Fame, in 2012. Yet, her Scottish connection is still very much unexplored.
Born in France to a French mother and an English father, Thomas, she first came to England at the age of 8 when her father’s work as one of the early car designers brought the family to the Midlands. By the time she finished her schooling in Loughborough she knew she wanted to become an engineer like her father. Thomas Pullinger was by then the manager of the new Arrol Johnston car works in Underwood Road in Paisley. Dorothée persuaded her father to let her train as an engineer at the Arrol Johnston factory, which she did until 1916 when she was recruited to be the Superintendent in charge of thousands of women munitions workers at Vickers in Barrow-in-Furness, at the age of 22. She was awarded the MBE for her war service.
Arrol Johnston’s new factories at Heathhall (Dumfries) and Tongland (near Kirkcudbright in Galloway) built aircraft in the war. The Galloway Engineering Company in Tongland in particular carried out advanced work on aeroengines using new designs and materials. This factory was conceived as a training establishment for “girl engineers” and after the war was converted to general engineering and subsequently production of the Galloway car. Sadly, the Galloway Motor Company and its parent Arrol Johnston folded by the late 1920s. By then Dorothee had married and left Scotland to build an industrial steam laundry in London, using her engineering and managerial skills to set up a very successful business, whilst also having two children.
During the Second World War Dorothée’s industrial skills were again called upon by the Nuffield company and by the government as they again struggled with managing the training and productivity of thousands of women working in
