Nah. We need to win to clinch second in the league and home ice over everyone but the rangers. Tonight is still a get the W game. 
 

I think we will see all the rooks though. We are morning skating in a few hours so we’ll know more then.

This board is as close to social media as I get, so any info on morning skate lines, who may be sitting tonight, etc., is appreciated.

It’s only Walt(best reporters not on the road) since it’s a road game so as soon as he posts I’ll forward it.

Looks like we might be going full on rest o_O

[Harbingers]

Don’t like it personally. You’re still playing for home ice advantage!

I'll bet Burns is getting the night off. Wonder who else.

Maybe RBA has already talked with CBJ and they're going to go soft tonight like Ottawa did for the Rags.

“Teravainen - Drury - Necas
Nadeau - Kuznetsov - Fast
Comtois - Kotkaniemi - Noesen
Lemieux - Martinook - Blake

Skjei, Burns, and Orlov are rotating on one side of things, while Chatfield, DeAngelo, and Morrow work at the other end.

Spencer Martin is in what is normally the starter's crease.  Pyotr Kochetkov is at the other end.

By process of elimination, here's who is not skating:

• Sebastian Aho
• Frederik Andersen
• Jake Guentzel
• Seth Jarvis
• Brett Pesce
• Jaccob Slavin
• Andrei Svechnikov

(plus Staal)

It is possible that one or some of them wind up playing, we'll see what Rod Brind'Amour has to say after the skate wraps up.

The newly-recalled Dylan Coghlan is not on the ice either, but I am guessing that he has not arrived yet.”

 

We going full on no injuries. I don’t know if burns Ironman streak gets broken if he sits healthy.

Rod just spoke to the media. When it goes up I’ll give it a listen.

Yep, just what I thought. Martin and rookies.  I’m sure they will play hard but it’s all about rest and not getting our big guns hurt. Treating it like a glorified preseason game.

This is going to be a wild game lol. Glad to see the rooks playing!

I’m hoping for zero defense.  10-9 type game!

Dallas is tied with us at 111 with 1 game left. Boston and Vancouver could catch or pass us. Need the W tonight.

Both Boston and Vancouver lose on RW tiebreaker so they are out no matter what. Dallas is the only team that can pass us if we lose, they play their final game tomorrow I think against the blues. If we win we are guaranteed second in the league.
