Likely Opening Night Lineup Revealed

Earlier today, coach Jack Capuano told media that was present that the teams lines at practice today were likely the ones they would be utilizing for the teams season opener Friday against the Hurricanes.

Those lines were:

Conacher-Tavares-Okposo

Grabovski-Nelson-Strome

Bailey-Nielsen-Kulemin

Martin-Cizikas-Clutterbuck

A little disappointing about Anders Lee who after his performance last season and a pretty good camp should definitely be in this lineup.

Meanwhile, the defense will likely look like this:

Leddy-Boychuk

Hickey-Hamonic

Strait-Reinhart

That is assuming Visnovsky isn't ready, if he is then Reinhart will go down and Visnovsky will form a 3rd pair with Hickey, according to Newsday.
My issue there is I feel like having Strait and Donovan up over Reinhart isn't icing the best team.  Reinhart should be given the opportunity over Strait who has already had multiple chances.
