Both dinged, I think.

Expect to see Lemieux tonight?

Anyway, let's see if the Cowardly Caps wanna play hockey tonight or will they just try to play keep away?

Edit: Sorry for the long post. 

Noesen has/had the flu/covid going around the league. Necas got his shoulder fuged up by Orlov in practice yesterday(it was an open practice and somebody got it on film, I’ll post below.) No word on Fasty, but since he wasn’t at practice I think he’s still in the protocol. 

Clearly he got his shoulder crunched, on a not even that hard hit by Orlov.

If all three can’t go we’d only have 17 skaters even with Lemieux and TDA aka 10-7 tonight. Which would be really hard on the guys on a back to back. Thus the need for a 11th forward.

If all three of our starters can’t go I’d frankly have brought Suzuki and Pono up(if we had the roster space) with Drury and gotten a good look at them on a line together. But sadly we don’t have the roster space so TDA it would be. 

That said I suspect Pono is just insurance for the back to back in case someone else gets dinged up. Though I really want to see him play at the top level. 11-7 with 3 missing starters on the road vs a division rival isn’t the best situation to throw him into.

As far as physicality goes. Probably not a better lineup you could have out there sans Noesen. Svechnikov, Bunting, Lemiuex, Orlov, and DeAngelo should all provide a physical presence.

Lemieux and Wilson had a nice fight in 2019, it’ll be interesting to see if that rivalry is renewed.
