Gilman said on air that tonight's roster will be very close to what the home opener will look like. So I guess that means Booth will be in a hospital room.

Hm, looks like Gaunce may sit.
Too bad. He's far more deserving than either of Sestito or Hamill, IMO.
Schroeder out 3 weeks according to Torts.
Plus it has been twice now he's called out Tom Kowal for not calling any penalties against them in preseason. Why is he calling out officials by name already?
You know, the joke is only funny the first 50,000 times.
I'm guessing that unless Horvat tears it up tonight, he'll be sent back. Gaunce may be given a few games in the reg season up with the big club.
Same with Shinkaruk. He's auditioning for a few reg season games as well since Kassian will be out.
I also think that Santorelli and Richardson are auditioning for 3rd/4th line centre roles.
Will we get a pp?!?!

Torts: lineup for last preseason game will be as close to opening night as possible
I think Santo gets 3C has he has more offensive vision than Richardson.
Unless Higgins-Richardson-Hansen continue good chemistry then IDGAF.

What's a PP?
When the other team has 5 players and we have 4
Oh I thought that was ES hockey and our coaches just can't count.
Sometimes after the opponent is winning by a lot they give us a pitty powerplay
I think the strategy on Horvat and Shinkaruk is pretty clear. Get them each a couple of NHL games' experience before sending them back to junior, dominating their respective leagues, and representing Canada at the WJCs. It'd give them a heck of a confidence boost among other things.
I expected a little more energy out of him to be honest, didn't expect alot of hitting , but just some energy and a little more hustle.. either way i will be happy with him on the 4th line, just no chance i want to see him near the 3rd line. which was rumored for a bit
