funny thing is this is the first twinge of excitement I have had for this season is seeing that lineup

I don't remember hearing they invited Dimitrakos.... Seems serviceable as a 4th liner..... Last NHL game '06/'07 though.. Niko Dimitrakos hockey statistics & profile at hockeydb.com

Dimitrakos and Eriksson just got their PTO invites a couple of days ago.
one of those "no-risk, warm bodies to fill out the lines" kind of deals.

First group on ice at Rogers Arena. All the regulars + Parent, Pinizzotto and Ebbett. Read into it what you will. Nolan out there too

 

[mooger_35]

I liked Pinizzotto's game yesterday.

that was a heck of a line at times. (Schaefer + Jensen).
I also liked Roussel's energy and smarts - covering defensively specifically
and Tanev has taken that extra step in confidence.

Polasek was awful except for the breakaway diving play.
