But hell, this kid probably won't even be able to stay on his skates for 10 seconds, even if these two were to drop the gloves. And Its not like there's even any hope of him landing a punch.....

what makes you even think rechlicz is gonna get much of a chance to be on the ice that much tonight?

to say labrie should never see nhl ice again if he doesn't fight rechlicz is just plain dumb hump...labrie actually can play the game which is why he got a contract from tampa, unlike rechlicz. im still wondering as to why or how rechlicz got a deal from washington. then again, john scott has an nhl contract so i guess pigs can fly.

Rechlicz may find a fool.
Parros vs. Bissonnette [if he's in]
Not counting on much else, almost every night has been disappointing.

[Stevens Lindros]

Anyone know if McGrattan is in or not?

Haha.

Do you honestly believe Carkner would only look to fight Lucic just to "take him off the ice for five minutes?"

Give the guy some credit. He's not gay. He'd fight Lucic because he has some pride and was upended in their first fight.

Last I checked, Barch doesn't play for Tampa.

I have not found anything confirming it for sure, but it looks like he will be in. Smithson and Boullion are out. I did see that Kassian is in and Staubitz is out... so odds are good. Heck, the guy has not played in 5 games... he's going to be ready to get his first fight on the road. I hate Staubitz is out... was hoping to see Gratts warm up with him.

First of all, don't put words in my mouth - Second of all, i think that he would take the trade off in a heartbeat, like i said it would have nothing to do with revenge, mainly just to get Lucic off the ice - Of course Carkner would fight him, he'd fight probably anyone...

I don't think Carkner took their first fight personal, at all.

[demodogpack]

Didn't Tampa also call up another fighter today, I think his name is Angeldis or something??

Well he was in the same state

[Stevens Lindros]

Harry Z is scratched but Shelley is in again tonight, sweet. Not to mention, Jags is back.

[DevsFan30]

Could be some fireworks right away in Philly.

Starting lines:
Glass - Slater - Thorburn
vs.
Shelley - Holmstrom - Sestito

They recalled Labrie today, but I can't find where they recalled Angelidis. They had him up and sent him back for the AS break, but haven't recalled him again.
