Red Wings are in Toronto tonight at 7:30pm. They are bringing with them a pretty stacked line up. With 2 games remaining in the preseason there are still a few roster spots undecided. This will be Babcock’s last two looks at Jensen, Marchenko and Ouellet to decide who he will keep at the back end and he will also be watching Ferraro as he cannot be sent down to Grand Rapids without clearing waivers. Mitchel Callahan is said to have the edge in the forward position but he is not playing tonight.
Here is our line up for tonight:
Nyquist – Zetterberg – Franzen
Pulkkinen – Andersson – Abdelkader
Weiss – Nosek – Cleary
Miller – Glendening – Ferraro
Kronwall – DeKeyser
Smith – Marchenko
Ouellet – Jensen
Gus gets the start in goal.
This is a great opportunity for one of our young guys to take a spot especially with Datsyuk being out for a little bit. Toronto gets to see Stephane Robidas in action tonight for the first time but they will be missing Bozak and Kessel who are both nursing injuries.
Let’s Go Red Wings!
