Big test for him, let's see how he handles the defending champs in their own building.

Both players have one fight this year:

Corvo won over Joey Crabb, while Turris lost a close decision to Briere.

I don't think I'd pay money to see these two go at it. But if they do,Ifully expect Turris to lose unless he fights dirty. And that would be delicious, too.

Given the talk about this, I highly doubt there will be a fight at all.

Au contraire mon frere... the hype has created a situation where they simply MUST fight. No way out of it.

Let's get ready to rummmmmmmmmmmmmmmbbbbllllllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

That, or they actually want Bingo to win some games for a change.

The NHL hates this kind of stuff. Imagine either guy gets hurt in any way, or that it leads to other fights or hits that end up with someone getting hurt? The media would have a field day, the NHL would end up looking like a bush league, and Shanahan would rain fire down upon everyone, but especially Corvo and Julien.

No, I'd put money down on there being no funny business involving Corvo tonight.

If he really wanted to do something, Corvo needed to shut his mouth and just do it during the game.

If it's left unresolved, and the game gets one-sided later, then I could see some stupid stuff taking place.

Either that, or maybe just nothing happens.

More important is how Lehner performs and if we can be more competitive against the Bs.

Best thing the Sens can do is injure Timmy T. Something season-ending. Oh, and then maul Rask as well.
