Something doesn't make sense. Why would they call up a left-handed D-man to sub in for a right-handed D-man? It matters...as we've all seen the arguments about...

Is Phillips hurt? Or someone else?

@SpezDispenser Played left in playoffs and at the start of the season, but they swapped him and Gryba recently. Should be fine either way.

Brian Lee was in the press box, so it doesn't matter what side somebody plays. Lee was insurance for both sides.

Is he a left-handed left-side D-Man or a left-handed right-side D-Man?!?!?! Or maybe he's an ambidextrous right-side D-Man playing on his off-side?!?!?!?

Doubt it. He looked esp. good in the 3rd period last night.

At any rate, it'll be good to see some of the kids, at some point, anyway.

Lee not making the trip to Toronto.

Sens have recalled The BoroCop and Petersson.

I'll update the original post soon, I ran out of time this AM.

Eerily quiet on the starting goal tender front... when's the presser this morning?

EDIT: Anderson confirmed to start for the Sens.

It'll add some excitement and freshness to the roster for sure. Just in time for one of the bigger games on the slate too.

If we can become a Carkner free zone for the playoff drive all the better. He's brutal and only good for thugging up the other team.

If this is a serious comment, then thank you. Been saying this for years. Awful player.

As per Siegel: Kadri appears to be out for Rosehill.

I don't get all this $hitting on Carkner lately. He's never been a particularly good puck manager, but his strengths -- physical play, clearing the front of the net, blocking shots -- were and are the same. He's a little more rusty than usual as a result of his time on the IR this year, but that's to be expected.

Scraptastic.

Komisarek may be the odd man out on D tonight... Gardiner is expected to be in the lineup for the Leafs.
