Tanguay is out and I bet Stastny too. He didn't last long in warmups.

 

[Avs]

Go team!

 

[hockeyfish]

Crap Roy. How freaking hard is it to call up a spare forward.

 

[the_fan]

What happened to Tanguay?

 

[Bensch88]

So, Holdenn as 4th line winger?

 

[Hans Landaskog]

So, Holdenn as 4th line winger?

Doubt it. He'll play with Barrie.

 

[Bensch88]

Doubt it. He'll play with Barrie.

Are we going to play with 11 forwards then?

 

[PeterTheGreat]

Doubt it. He'll play with Barrie.

Agreed. Avs will play with 11 forwards and 7 dmen.

One of our top guya will get double shifted with the 4 line.

 

[Avs For Life]

Is PAP in with Staz and Tangs out? I would certainly hope so...

 

[Gigantor The Goalie]

Crap Roy. How freaking hard is it to call up a spare forward.

Do we even have any healthy forwards in LEM?

 

[Ceremony]

That's an interesting trophy ya got there

 

[Hans Landaskog]

Crap Roy. How freaking hard is it to call up a spare forward.

We're fine, a few guys will get an extra couple minutes this game. Not a big deal.

 

[Avs]

Do we even have any healthy forwards in LEM?

Malone

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

Columbus sure has scouted a lot of Avs games.

 

[Bensch88]

Malone

What about Carey?
Thought he head a decent camp?
Anyway, let`s trash Capt. Saccos`s army!

 

[Cypher]

Are we going to play with 11 forwards then?

No, Wilson is going to play forward.

I mean, he can't be any worse than he is at defense, right?

 

[Avs]

Cliche moves up to 2nd line center with Stastny out, no?

 

[tigervixxxen]

Stas took like 5 mins of warm up and left. He didn't look terrible, just a little slow but was turning on the ankle quite a bit. Duchene looks locked in today. Was getting his shot in the net all warm up.

Lake Erie has almost everyone back now so a full buffet of options. I wonder if the Olympic break forces them to not call anyone up though. I think some rule if they are on the roster after Jan 24th the CBA entitles them to the full Olympic break.

It's a busy week. It would be nice not to have to do it.

 

[Ceremony]

At least there's no excuse to scratch Parenteau again. Get a goal or two, please.

 

[Ceremony]

Bordeleau's 100th game! Good for him. Now never play again please.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Really hope Duchene gets some puck luck today and scores a couple, he deserves it.

 

[Avsboy]

Is PAP in the lineup? I'd love to write papapapap today
