On the Wings

Tonight it all begins. The Kings are coming to town for the home opener and we’ll see two former Wings in their lineup: Sean Avery and Luc Robitaille. Sean Avery will probably start something and we’ll probably see a different Luc than we’re used to. He always seems to play better for the Kings, for some reason.

Brian has already given the lines so I won’t repeat them here. The defensive pairings are expected to be:

Hatcher-Lidstrom
Chelios-Fischer
Schneider-Dandenault or Woolley.

Scratches- Hudler, Joseph, Dandenault or Woolley.

Dominik will obviously get the start, with Manny backing him up. Don’t expect Hasek to dominate in the first game, he usually takes a few games to warm up. Same with the rest of the team, though hopefully they’ll be less rusty than Dom.

Just a couple hours away. I can’t wait! GO WINGS!!!
