It is a good reflection of the opening day lineup, regardless of Jack being there or not. Jack finished the game the other night and even scored a goal. He practiced today even longer than usual and did some faceoff work (videos posted on Twitter). I highly doubt he's injured, and if he is, it's most likely minor given what I said earlier. Our first game is also in a week.Keefe said tonight's lineup would be a good reflection of our starting lineup. He said that earlier this week. How does this change before puck drop? Why not have Jack play before next friday? Just want him to be healthy.
CORY!!!
If the people who ran the goaltending department and the team actually realized at some point in the last 4 going on 5 years, 3 head coaching changes, 13 different goalies and 3 or 4 assistant coaching changes we needed a change at the goalie coaching position, maybe he could have worked here.Good for Cory!

Get out the bubble wrapI just don’t see the utility in extra practice when you can practice an entire preseason game. I’d respect it more if they just said, “Listen, the game doesn’t matter and we don’t want him taking a hit like he did last game.”
Even if they came out and said exactly that people would still freak out and think he's injured. He practiced extra mostly on faceoffs today. It's valuable time spent. He's not playing cause he's resting and the game honestly doesn't matter. It's 1 week of rest and focus. That's good imo.I just don’t see the utility in extra practice when you can practice an entire preseason game.
