i think dallas will play turco, with the young D in front of him, and maybe teppo and zubov to get them started.
i hope dallas plays the young guys again like in the avs-stars game.

Dallas said it would be unlikely for Turco to play until the middle/end of next week.
I just hope the game does not turn into the goon fest that the NYR game was. The Rangers have some real tools.
If I had to bet, a lot of the Stars roster will be made up mostly of guys that didn't play last night.
In goal, that probably means Bacashihua and Tugnutt (yeah, I said it!). Maybe Ellis. Smith is till hurt, I think.
On D, I'd bet that MacMillan, Sweeney, Robidas, and Jancevski will all play. Maybe Vagner, too.
At forward, DiMaio, Barnes and Turgeon should be back. Lemieux and Young should also be playing. The rest will probably be mostly the Utah crowd. Possibly Crombeen too.
This was a hell of a game, these two teams were hacked off at each other from the drop of the puck. There were 3 scraps and two other occasions where scrums and I mean heated scrums could have resulted in more fights. Barett Jackman and Jason Arnott were both tossed from the game for seperate spearinng incedents.
The 3 bouts were Reed Low vs Mike Sgroi-when they lock up Scroi is throwing all the punches and landing several to Low's helmetless coconut. in the Later part of this bout and it was a long one folks Low lands his fair share and he gets the takedown also on Sgroi at the end.
Decision Draw
Mike Danton vs Steve Gainey- these two have a spirited middleweight bout, they both land their fair share.
Decision Gainey for landing more
Mike Sgroi vs Brett Scheffelmaier-this one is a tough one for Scheff, Sgroi, nocks him down early but scheff gets up and lands some lefts Sgroi, Sgroi however nocks him down and continues to try and throw. Sgroi is a very tough kid.
In the game both teams had a good pace, Reinhard Divis played the whole game for the Blues and allowed a softie on the second goal but was otherwise soild. Have no Idea why there was no Johnnie.
Varlamov had a good game
Demitra and Tkachuk combined on the winner on a 2on 1 in overtime whenthe Blues were on a PP because of Arnotts spearing penalty
one more note, the refs actually called a dive in this one.
Barnes scored again, and again Turgeon got an assist, those two have some crazy chemestry. Noth average over a ppg in pre-season so far, I hope it's some kind of indication.
