Chicago and Detroit both dressing a bunch of stiffs tonight. DET with a slightly better lineup imo - looks like Chicago dressing nobody from top 2 F lines and top D pairing. Raanta starting in net.
Detroit missing lots of bodies too, but have top D pairing playing, and Howard in net.
Chicago also getting into DET late due to plane problems. Not sure it's relevant, but there you go.
In the TBL-NSH game, it looks like the Preds will be quite a bit deeper, starting 4 of their top 6 forwards, and 3 of their top 4 D, while Tampa is starting nobody from their first line, and just one from the second (Palat), and only one of their top 6 projected D (Gudas). Rinne will play at least some of the game, and Tampa has Gudlevskis getting most of the work.
FYI all the talk of rosters is based on dailyfaceoff projected lines, so take it with a grain of salt.
I'm scouring the interwebz for as much info as I can find on who is playing in each exhibition game.
FWIW I'm on Detroit and Nashville tonight (and Minnesota, but that has already started).
Might have more on later games to come. GLTA
