Quick Update
Jose Theodore is expected to start in net tonight against Boston, while the rest of the lineup should look a lot like it did in Pittsburgh on Wednesday. In a few minutes, I'll have some additional notes and quotes from the morning skate and a bit about Bruce Boudreau's recent conversation with Karl Alzner about playing hard and not worrying about being sent down.

reporting here in case someone has a tix for me.
I'll start with doom-inator stuff, and the big danger of tonight:
Do Not Make Their Goalie Look Like a Superstar.
Repeat: Do Not Make Their Goalie Look Like a Superstar.
I don't care how many shots on goal you have if he can see them all... NYI outshoot BOS 41-27 but they lost last game... key is TTF: Tough Traffic in Front.
On a side note... I'm almost tempted to make the trip for the game tonight... anybody has a ticket by any chance?

I would prefer to scratch bradshear, I think Clark is a much better player.

@Capt_Kirk_in_AZ
Are you on heavy drugs boy? I mean that had to be sarcasm right?
It was Ted's idea to rebuild in the first place, GMGM is a contracting genius, and BB is only the freakin coach of the year!

I agree with the doom sayers and totally disagree with myself.

All I have to say is some people are too literal.

yes - it was
i actually believe they have the tools to make a run right now - with a little luck from the goaltending - meaning theo pulls a second half of the season like he did last year. problem is he's not in a contract year

"lineup should look a lot like it did in Pittsburgh"
