Hmmm, Svatos didn’t play either, I hope he’s ok.

Best news of the night:

CHICAGO (AP) - Ryan Smyth’s power-play tip-in at 3:07 of overtime lifted the Colorado Avalanche to a 4-3 preseason win over the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday night.

Smyth had a tip-in goal! On the powerplay! Last season, I remember him scoring about 2 tip-in goals all year. For a player whose bread & butter is tipping in pucks in front of the net, last season was just horrible. I hope this early preseason trend continues and Granato keeps putting him where he belongs, in front of the net, not behind it.

No Jones, nor Hensiiick tonight either. Doesn’t that mean the decision has been made on them? and which way are they going?

Personally I think Jones is staying and Hensiiick is going back to Eire, until that first injury.
