02/07/2007 -

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -The Carolina Hurricanes suspended defenseman Anton Babchuk on Wednesday for failing to report to their American Hockey League affiliate in Albany.

The suspension came the day after Babchuk was sent down and the Hurricanes activated defenseman Frantisek Kaberle from the non-roster injured list.

Babchuk had two goals and 12 assists in 51 games with the Hurricanes.

Kaberle missed 55 games while he recovered from offseason shoulder surgery, and is best known for scoring the decisive goal in Game 7 of last season's Stanley Cup finals against the Edmonton Oilers.

He picked up where he left off Tuesday night, scoring the game-winner in his first game back, a 2-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
