In a way it seems like we’ve been waiting forever for the regular season, yet at the same time it seems like we were just here. Either way, the puck drops tonight at about 8:16pm Mountain time and I can’t wait. And I know you can’t either.
Here’s what the lineups will look like:
David Moss - Olli Jokinen - Jarome Iginla
Nigel Dawes - Daymond Langkow - Rene Bourque
Curtis Glencross - Craig Conroy - Dustin Boyd
Fredrik Sjostrom - Eric Nystrom - Brandon Prust
Dion Phaneuf - Robyn Regehr
Jay Bouwmeester - Mark Giordano
Adam Pardy - Staffan Kronwall
Cory Sarich did not skate again today. He is “status quo” according to Brent Sutter. Foot issues continue.
For the Canucks:
Daniel Sedin - Henrik Sedin - Alex Burrows
Sergei Shirokov - Ryan Kesler - Mikael Samuelsson
Mason Raymond - Kyle Wellwood - Steve Bernier
Darcy Hordichuk - Ryan Johnson - Rick Rypien
Willie Mitchell - Sami Salo
Kevin Bieksa - Alex Edler
Shane O’Brien - Christian Erhoff
There was some question as to whether or not Bieksa (groin/lower body issue) and Rypien (flu) would be good to go tonight, but indications are both players are set to go.
