News: Gordon (back) will miss yet another game Friday, the Washington Post reports.
Impact: It is getting to the point if you wonder if Gordon will ever get right. He tried to play in one contest, but left after only four-plus minutes on the ice. We will continue to update his condition, but it may seem long-term injured reserve will be next for him if he is not progressing.(RotoWire,

News: Gordon (back) is out again Tuesday, the Washington Post reports.
Impact: Gordon's back problems are becoming very serious and concerning. He missed 13 straight games and returned last Saturday only to have to leave the game with back problems again. This is not good news for a team that could use the services of a good two-way player with face-off skill.(RotoWire,

Mon. Nov 9, 2009
News: Gordon (back) fully participated in practice Monday, the Washington Post reports.
Impact: Gordon, who has missed 12 straight games, will hopefully be back into a lineup that has managed to get some wins without their superstar Alex Ovechkin. They could really use their main starters all back and get some chemistry brewing.(RotoWire,

News: Gordon (back) did not make the trip to Atlanta Thursday and will miss his sixth straight game, the Washington Post reports.
Impact: We do not think Gordon or the team thought this injury was so serious. He has battled these same back problems in the past, so possibly they are being more delicate with the situation this time around. No timetable on his return.(RotoWire,

Mon. Oct 26, 2009
News: Gordon (back) was not on the ice for practice Monday, the Washington Post reports.
Impact: Gordon who has been held out of the last four games may miss number five Tuesday. Bruce Boudreau described it as "lingering" and the Caps surely miss their two-way center, especially in the face-off circle.(RotoWire,
