The Rematch…or something like that.

It’s time for revenge from a game that was played two weeks ago.  An embarassing home effort with an even more embarassing loss, we didn’t play in front of rookie goaltender, Steve Mason.  Tonight, we need this win.  The last two games at home have been absolutely brutal and tonight it’s time to change that.

Mason is in net tonight, I expect him to have a great game, coming off of his first NHL shutout.  Pascal Leclaire will be backing him up.  Hopefully someday soon we will have a decision on the three headed goalie monster that we have going right now.

Here are the lines for tonight:

Huselius-Brassard-Nash
Modin-Umberger-Voracek
Chimera-Malhotra-Boll
Torres-Peca-Dorsett

Voracek moving up to the second line is great, he needs to get going again so he and Brassard can compete for the Calder!  That fourth line is absolutely brutal, Torres and Dorsett are some hard hitters, and Peca doesn’t mess around either, it’ll be great to see them together.  Dorsett isn’t afraid of anything and I love having him up.

And the defensive pairings:

Commodore-Hejda
Tyutin-Methot
Backman-Tollefsen

And, with tomorrow being Thanksgiving, here’s what I’m thankful for in life and with hockey.

* My family, obviously.
* My amazing friends, that I have met through the hockey blogosphere, there are some great people out there.  Especially Teebz who puts up with me on a daily basis, and Cat who listens to me complain about the dumbest things, Hammer, Twin, and everyone else who I can’t all name.
* Ken Hitchcock.  Could you imagine where this team would be if we hadn’t hired him?  Good. Lord.
* The Rookies, so fun to watch, they keep giving me hope for a post season!
* Blogging on Kukla’s with some of the most amazing people I have ever known.
* My amazing niece!
