News And Notes

Not much Isles info today, so I'm going to do my best to get a post in here.

-Tomorrow night is Mike Sillinger's 1,000 career NHL game. I hope all the fans congratulate him well, and I have a feeling he will do something good for us.

-Here are the probable lines for the game tomorrow night-

Goaltenders
39 Rick DiPietro
34 Wade Dubielewicz

Defensemen
32 Brendan Witt - 24 Radek Martinek
25 Andy Sutton - 47 Marc-Andre Bergeron
14 Chris Campoli - 8 Bruno Gervais

Forwards
26 Ruslan Fedotenko - 89 Mike Comrie - 7 Trent Hunter
11 Andy Hilbert - 18 Mike Sillinger - 13 Bill Guerin
20 Sean Bergenheim - 63 Josef Vasicek - 81 Miroslav Satan
12 Chris Simon - 10 Richard Park - 2 Aaron Johnson

17 Shawn Bates


-Doesn't look like Bates is playing. Maybe it would take too much attention away from Silly.

-Tampa's coming off a 6-1 loss tonight, so the Isles are in for a similar situation as Saturday.

-There are still some trade rumours strolling around. I'd guess they involve a Dman. This is VERY unlikely, though. (14%)


Okay, maybe I did a pretty good job of putting together a post. Happy Halloween, everybody!


Let's Go Isles!!!
