The NHL hasn’t quite figured out that showing preseason games might actually help build the sport, so I’m not watching the game tonight but I am listening to the Kings radio stream. And, based on the TOI reports, here’s the lines to start the game…
- Sakic, Tucker, Stewart
- Stastny, Hejduk, Smyth
- Guite, Laperriere, Hendricks
- Willsie, N Smith, Parker
- Foote, Montgomery
- Clark, Campbell
- Liles, Vernace
Budaj is between the pipes. Smyth has a PP goal (there were 4 forwards on the ice, so it appears Sakic is still making an appearance on the blueline with the man advantage). Tucker also has a goal.
Also, Foote is wearing an A (along with Lappy).
Foote wearing an A, and rightfully so.
