Report from Rob Kerr on the radio is that Dion Phaneuf was not at practice today in favor of going to the doctors' to get x-rays on one of his legs. I am hoping this is just a precaution and that Phaneuf will not miss anytime. Phaneuf has been the Flames best defensemen by a mile so far this season and with the d-corps struggling, this comes at a very bad time.
Anyways things need to be shaken up for Thursday's game against the Canucks so these are what I think the Flames lines should look like to shake things up a little and get things going again.
FORWARDS
1- TANGUAY-LANGKOW-IGINLA
2- HUSELIUS-LOMBARDI-MOSS
3- NYSTROM-CONROY-NOLAN
4- GODARD-YELLE-NILSON
Langkow needs that spark back that he has sort of lost, Conroy just doesn't cut it in between Iggy and Tanguay. Lombardi needs to be given a shot in the top 6 and Moss needs to get some goals. Along side Huselius they could make a very good line.
D-PAIRINGS
1- PHANEUF-AUCOIN
2- REGEHR-HALE
3- SARICH-WARRENER
Warrener practiced today and from Peter Maher was out because of a throat infection. He should be good to go, so now every Flames fan doesn't have to have a heart attack or nervous breakdown every time Eriksson steps onto the ice.
STARTER- KIPRUSOFF
BACK-UP- KEETLEY
No change here, for a must win game in my books anyways.
