Short Shifts
Notable lineup changes from around the NHL:
As reported earlier, Vaclav Prospal will be out 2-3 weeks. Erik Christensen will dress in his place and Brandon Dubinsky will replace him on the top PP unit. Dubinsky is expected to step up and could provide some excellent short term returns. Rangers Lines
Kevin Bieksa is day-to-day with a lacerated ankle. He could miss extended time upon re-evaluation today. Canucks Lines
Martin Erat is day-to-day with a knee injury suffered last night. Preds Lines
Nick Foligno is probable to return to the lineup tonight for the Sens, but the way they’ve played lately they might not need him! Sens Lines
Marc-Andre Bergeron moves to the 4th-line tonight to make room for all of the healthy Habs’ D-men. Pacioretty is the odd man out. Habs Lines
