Looks like they start Bachman in net tonight.
Hamilton appears to be near ready, but not quite. He's skating with the out of the lineup guys. There are two guys in that group who have been playing, Landry and Valk. I believe Landry was injured in the finale against Binghmaton. Valk would be a healthy scratch and join Pereira, Bubela, and Currier.
Pedan and Fedun are in for sure. After that Subban, Negrin, Shields, and Sautner are definitely healthy. Not sure about Ehrhardt, but if he's hurt along with Landry, the Comets only have 6 healthy D-men.
Forwards ready to go tonight look like:
LaBate/Hensick/Grenier - This has been a line for the last few games.
Jones/Cassels/Marino - Also a set line of late.
The next 2 lines could have several combos and depends upon the health of Archibald since he looks to be in the lineup based on the guys who were skated after practice.
Kenins/Friesen/Bancks They have been a line.
Gaunce and Zalewski have been together as wings, but if one goes to center, I could see
Archibald/Gaunce/Zalewski
Bancks could also center Z and Gaunce or go to either of the wings.
Archi could be the RW for Friesen and Kenins.
After that, Green has had a week to reset all of his lines. There are a multitude of possibilities, but Hensick on a wing is the most unlikely switch I can see. He has been the best center on the team since his arrival. So, we wait until game time to see the 2016 Calder Cup Playoff edition of the Utica Comets for game #1 vs the Albany Devils at 7:00 pm in Albany.
