Rinaldo could go with somebody. I wish Kaleta is in so he could go with him.

I REALLY hope McCormick is in. Would Finley try Shelley or Walker? I see he's fought some heavies in the A. Kassian vs Rinaldo/Simmonds is a possibility as well.

I think our best bet tonight is Erskine vs Konopka. Erskine has fought in defense of team mates in 2 of his 4 games since Hunter took over. I can see Konopka either running a team mate or just challenging Erskine.

What does it matter, its about a 1% chance that Walker or Shelly are playing. Schenn is in, JVR is suppose to be back.

Walker and Shelly were actually skating together as the 4th pairing defense in practice yesterday. And Harry Z is the 13th forward. Let's hope Marshall plas bad and they dress Walker tomm.

I could see:

Rinaldo vs. Kassian or something a little odd Regehr vs. Simmonds.

McCormick is cleared to come back but not sure if he'll be in tonight. If he's back, I don't know if he'll fight because some reports said he had a concussion?

Finley does fight heavies in the A but I've heard that he sucks for his size. Def would like to see how he does if he fights Shelley or Walker.

Kassian would kill Rinaldo but Simmonds would be a better match up.

[Flyers2001]

Schenn is out of the line-up for Philly. So either Harry Z or Shelly gets moved back in. Setting 90% odds that it is Harry Z, who has more fights than Shelly this year.

Will Konopka be in tonight?

I wish Buffalo would come out and state it, don't you? Not be so secretive. He's a fighter, so not coming out and saying it really doesn't make any sense. If he's not 100% and can't fight, there's no reason why he shoud be in the line up.

I think Bourdon fights Kassian tonight. Just a hunch.

[ldyker]

I think Erskine is going to go with Neil tonight. It's gonna go like this:

Neil runs Knuble from behind,
Neil skates back to bench thinking he's safe,
Erskine hits Neil from behind and Neil turtles after seeing who hit him,
Erskine punches a hole through Neil's exposed love handles.

i like your shtick, how you showed up after being on here for years, suddenly touting Erskine (of all people) as the new p4p champ in every possible fights thread, but why him?

after an 8 year absence, 5 of your last 6 posts have been sucking Erskine off. what gives?

Philly/Buff game should be OK, IF the right people are in.
