Chaulk has a setback

Komets captain Colin Chaulk, who has missed 20 games because of a foot infection, is back in the hospital.

Obviously, his return, which the Komets had hoped would be this week, has been pushed back.

That's all I know.

After two periods at Memorial Coliseum, the Komets lead the Cincinnati Cyclones 2-1.

Brett Smith scored a power-play goal in the second, redirecting Tyler Butler's shot from the blue line.
