Predicted Lineups

With Fabbri injured and no call-up from Grand Rapids, we’re rocking an 11-forward lineup. Optional morning skate with about 12 players showing up so I’m deciding what the lines should be on behalf of Lalonde. Let’s get that top line back together!

Red Wings

DeBrincat-Larkin-Raymond
Rasmussen-Copp-Sprong
???-Compher-Perron
Kostin-Veleno-Fischer

Walman-Seider
Chiarot-Petry
Gostisbehere-Holl
Maatta

Husso
Reimer
Lyon

Lightning

Sheary-Point-Kucherov
Hagel-Cirelli-Stamkos
Eyssimont-Paul-Watson
Merelä-Glendening-Jeannot

Hedman-Perbix
Sergachev-Raddysh
de Haan-Cernak

Johansson
Tomkins

Keys to the Game

  1. Stay out of the box jerks!!! Yes, the refs are always bad and wrong and out to get us but somehow we have to find a way to not make our goonery so egregious it leaves someone sitting in the Bad Boy Box. Penalties are what turned the tide away from our favor against the Devils and Wings need to remain cool-tempered. Looking at you Larkin, no punching anyone and getting suspended in a home opener against Tampa…
  2. HONK THE HORN! It is the maiden voyage of the new LCA very real and very physically existing goal horn. No more horn.mp3 in our house! Let’s give it a workout.
  3. Two more points for us and two fewer points for them. Playoff spots are up for grabs and no sure thing in the Atlantic. Every point we can take for ourselves and take away from the rest of the Atlantic counts.
