Only thing announced is that Duchene will take JT\s spot in the lineup, but Babs won't be making any changes to the defense corps st this stage.

Not like they could use a jolt from a high-scoring defenceman or anything :whistle:

Dammit! Just heard I might have to work off site tomorrow so my ability to watch or listen to the game is probably going to be nonexistent.

Hope we beat them just so they can have another inferiority complex meltdown that we somehow fixed the game.

USA Already has their one fix for the tourney. They don't get another.

I like PK. I mean really like his game. But the way the Canada D is skating I don't know who you sit to make room for him at this point.

You feeling okay? You sound like you have some non-descript, nearly symptomless bug of some sort. You might perhaps need some rest.

PK should at the very least be dressing over Hamhuis and getting those 5 minutes of ice time ... even if its just to come on the ice for 1 power play shift, that would give you more than Hamhuis would provide

5 mins of PK gives you a 50% or better chance of producing a goal than Hamhuis at 10 mins. Im not sure why hes on the ice and not in the stands but I do like Hamhuis more for Penalty Kill time and a more defensive style. that being said we have 6 elites in front of the 7th Id have PK over my own teams dman

Worked some extra hours this week so I could take tomorrow afternoon off... pretty pumped. This has been hockey's biggest rivalry since the 96 world cup IMO.

I think bergeron slides to fourth line centre and then see MSL or Duchene with Crosby.

Duthie was on the radio and said as of right now it looks like Duchene will be centring line 4 and bergeron will stay on Sids line

I hope the US doesn't decide to shake things up. Love the top D pairing of Suter-McDonagh and the Cally-Backes-Brown line has been causing all sorts of havoc out there and producing.

You do realize that one Sidney Patrick Crosby has a knack for showing up at exactly the right time and driving daggers through opponent's hearts, right?

I'm calling it now. He scores the game winner tomorrow.

And Harper will force him to mate with Poulin and churn out a bazillion little clutch babies.
