Lineup News: *Ruslan Fedotenko skated yesterday and is currently on the ice for the morning skate and will be a Game Time Decision. If Fedotenko is able to go, he is expected to play with Staal and Kennedy and Cooke will move to the fourth line. Michel Therrien has been very mum on whether Mark Eaton will return to the lineup. By the looks of the morning skate it does appear Daryl Sydor is going to play but in practice yesterday they alternated. Following the morning skate I’ll post any lineup changes if there are any
