VAIL, Colo. -- Lindsey Vonn remains unsure just what effect her latest knee injury will have on her Sochi Olympic hopes. Asked in an interview on NBCs "Today" show Wednesday whether she can put the kind of pressure on the knee she will need to train and make it to Sochi in February, Vonn replied: "To be honest, I dont know." The reigning Olympic downhill champion crashed during a downhill training run in Copper Mountain last week and partially tore a reconstructed ligament in her right knee. Vonn said her immediate plan is to resume training in Vail to test out the knee. She elected to skip the races this weekend in nearby Beaver Creek to give her knee more time to rest. The 29-year-old Vonn hasnt ruled out a possible return to competition in Lake Louise, Alberta, on Dec. 6. "If things go well, you know, Ill be racing next week," Vonn said. "If they dont, then Im going to have to reassess and kind of see where I stand and if I can make a comeback for this season." The four-time overall World Cup champion tore ligaments in her right knee in a high-speed accident at the world championships in February. Shes been well ahead of schedule in her return, but doesnt believe she was pushing too hard to make it back to the slopes. "I was skiing really fast. I was skiing confident. I was very strong," Vonn said. "It just was unfortunately a fluke accident. Thats the risk you take when youre going 80, 90 mph down a mountain. Thats just part of the job. But I picked myself back up and Im trying as hard as I can to keep going. "Im just fingers-crossed that I can be racing next week, because Ive worked so hard all summer to get back to this point and I just want to get back in the starting gate." In her crash last week, Vonn said she caught an edge, flipped over her skis and "went head-first into the fence." She said the knee wasnt the cause of the spill. "The fall caused my knee to give out," Vonn said. "If I hadnt have had my brace on, I definitely would not have had anything left in my knee. It was one of those fluky things that sometimes happen. "Unfortunately, it was really bad timing for me. Im still confident. I still feel like I have a lot left to achieve this season. ... I still have time before Sochi."

Phaneuf boarded Miller, who clearly had his back turned, during Torontos loss to Boston on Sunday night at Air Canada Centre. No boarding penalty was called on the play. In announcing the suspension, NHL vice-president of player safety Brendan Shanahan said that Miller should never have been eligible to be hit like he was. "At no point during his approach does Phaneuf see anything but Millers numbers, so the onus is on him to either avoid the hit completely or at the very least minimize it more than he does," Shanahan said. Miller left the game, but Claude Julien told reporters that he wasnt worried about the defencemans condition. That factored into the two-game suspension, as did the fact that Phaneuf has no previous history of discipline in nine NHL seasons. The suspension is the Leafs fourth during the regular season. David Clarkson got an automatic 10 games for leaving the bench to join an altercation during the pre-season,, Nazem Kadri got three games for elbowing Wild goaltender Niklas Backstrom in the head last month, and Carter Ashton was suspended two games for boarding Flames forward Derek Smith.dddddddddddd Phil Kessel was suspended three pre-season games for slashing Sabres forward John Scott during the brawl between the teams in September. Phaneuf told reporters at the teams practice facility in Toronto that he was not happy about the decision but had to accept it. Coach Randy Carlyle said the team had a difference of opinion with the league on the ruling. Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli did not have much more than that to add. "I accept the ruling," he said after the board of governors meeting. "Im just happy Miller wasnt hurt and hes able to play." Miller is expected to be in the Bruins lineup Tuesday night when they visit the Calgary Flames. Phaneuf will miss the Leafs game against the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday and their game at the St. Louis Blues on Thursday. Hell forfeit $66,666.66 in salary as a result of the suspension. ' ' '
