As expected, Carlsson has been sent back to Hershey with the activation of Carlson. Fucale has also been sent back.

I was hoping to see Fucale in net.


So the Hawks are THE worst scoring team in the entire NHL (barely behind Columbus) so let's see if we can keep the GA to less than 5 this game.


Kuzy with Mantha and Smith.  Woah! watch out for those snipers....serious scoring threat there.

Mickstix:
Wish he'd just put 8-19-77 on a line and short shift/wait for a PP. Those 3 are just slow as molasses, unfortunately. Good for an offensive zone draw and a quick backtrack if needed, while fresh. But 5v5 it can get ugly if we do any defending for any length of time. Whatever.. Go Ovi!!  :)
