Taken from Khan's Twitter.

Nice, interesting to see Hirose sitting.

 

[Ricelund]

I have a feeling this one's gonna be particularly brutal.

6-1 Bruins.

Looking forward to seeing what Fabbri brings to the top six.

 

[lhsgolf19]

I just looked... not only are we last in the league in points but our goal differential is -11 worse than 2nd Worst... That's insane lol

 

[Ghost of Ethan Hunt]

from Khan:

Newly acquired center Robby Fabbri will be wearing No. 14.

Jonathan Bernier in starter’s net for RedWings.
lines at skate:

Bertuzzi-Larkin-Mantha
Athanasiou-Nielsen-Fabbri
Perlini-Nielsen-Erne
Abdelkader-Ehn-Helm

Looks like Hirose (no goals, 5 assists in 18 games) is scratched tonight.
added 11:08am Should be Filppula, of course, between Athanasiou and Fabbri.
​

added 10:47am, Dana Wakiji tweet,

Nemeth-Hronek
Cholowski-McIlrath
Bowey-Green
​

added 10:53am, Khan...

power play units:
1. Bertuzzi (net), Larkin (slot), Fabbri-Mantha (half walls), Cholowski (point).
2. Perlini (net front), Filppula (slot), Hronek-Athanasiou (half walls), Green (point).​

This is gonna be incredibly ugly. Hopefully Fabbri plays great.

If we add DK and Glenny back into the lineup, we suddenly can at least roster a couple of competent lines. Still going to suck but it’s looking better than it was

 

[Winger98]

I'm not really looking forward to this. Maybe the Wings will come out big and surprise us, but Boston always seems to put a hurting on us.

 

[Avery Rule]

5-2 Bruins

 

[TheGoldenGod]

Lets go Fabs!

Wish this was a nationally broadcasted game...

 

[RedMenace]

I never like to see anyone injured, but I wouldn't mind Big Mac pounding Marchand into the concourse.

 

[RedMenace]

from Khan:

Newly acquired center Robby Fabbri will be wearing No. 14.
​

I wonder why he didn't take 15 like he had in St. Louis. Does someone in GR have that reserved?

Edit - Oh, I bet he wanted 14 in St. Louis, but it was retired... hmm... oh well.

 

[Ricelund]

I wonder why he didn't take 15 like he had in St. Louis. Does someone in GR have that reserved?

No one wears 15 out of respect for Sheahan.

 

[Tasteslikekevinbacon]

No one wears 15 out of respect for Sheahan.

I mean the guy scored the last goal at the Joe so he’s got to be a prolific goal scorer of course. Right?

 

[GreatGordie9]

Boston 4 Wings 1

 

[ElysiumAB]

Boston 4 Wings 1

Found the optimist!

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Can't wait for the day I see Nielsen, Helm and Abdelkader off the wings active roster

 

[GreatGordie9]

When do we bench Howard?

 

[ArGarBarGar]

Oh boy, can't wait to see how our defense/goaltending holds up against guys with a 2.00 PPG.

 

[RedMenace]

When do we bench Howard?

Well Bernier is starting, so maybe it starts today?

Oh boy, can't wait to see how our defense/goaltending holds up against guys with a 2.00 PPG.

Pasta with a hatty, all one-timers from the circle.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

It's cool to see Fabbri getting a real shot.

 

[Kronwalled55]

We've had some success with #14's lately. Shanahan... Nyquist...

And of course, Derek Meech.

 

[lhsgolf19]

Can't wait for the day I see Nielsen, Helm and Abdelkader off the wings active roster

I really believe Stevie will buy out one of the big deals this offseason (Nielsen or Abdelkader)... Pointless to buy out Helm because he's a UFA after next season.

 

[TheOtherOne]

AA 29 goals.
Bernier 1 assist.
