The lineup closely mirrors the one that hit the ice for the start of preseason in Newfoundland — the Tavares line, a potential fourth line of Moore, Gauthier and Spezza, and the Muzzin – Barrie pairing are all back in action tonight.
One tweak is Frederik Gauthier shifting into the middle with Jason Spezza on his right wing; expect the two to take draws on their respective strong sides and share center duties at different points, but Babcock iked how well Gauthier skated over 200 feet of ice in the opener and may well go in this direction if Goat can keep up the stellar play.
