Projected Lineup
(Subject to change)
Gustav Nyquist - Pierre-Luc Dubois - Cam Atkinson
Alexandre Texier - Alexander Wennberg - Oliver Bjorkstrand
Nick Foligno - Boone Jenner - Emil Bemstrom
Jakob Lilja - Riley Nash - Sonny Milano
Zach Werenski - Seth Jones
Ryan Murray - Markus Nutivaara
Vladislav Gavrikov - David Savard
Joonas Korpisalo
Elvis Merzlikins
Scratches: Josh Anderson (upper-body injury, day-to-day), Scott Harrington, Dean Kukan
Roster Report: Tortorella said he still has not settled on the bottom of the defensive lineup, with eight players who deserve to be among the six who dress each night, but Gavrikov and Savard comprised the third pair in practice this week. Anderson missed Monday's game with the injury and will not play vs. the Ducks, Tortorella said, while the Jackets have not yet named a starting goalie.
I would be quite happy if it works out that way.Vladislav Gavrikov - David Savard is interesting. Kind of like Cole-Savard from the playoffs?

Of course, that assumes that the projected lineup is what Torts actually goes with, which, well... even odds, maybe.
doesn't matter, it will all be blown to hell by the 2nd period anyway.
Cannon-blasted to hell, just like the spirit of the Ducks after they get roasted tonight.
Don't know, but this is the first of a back-to-back, so it's not impossible.Any chance Elvis gets the nod tonight?

In past years, this probably would have been a game where Torts would start Korpi to save Bob for the strong Metro team the following night. Of course, it's an entirely new paradigm now without Bob, so who knows.Don't know, but this is the first of a back-to-back, so it's not impossible.
Mmmm. Roast duck.
We should win this game.
