Default Kipper's last home stand?

There are still seven games left in the season, but the next three are at home, followed by four on the road. So like it or not, given the distinct possibility that Kipper may retire after this season, this week could be the last time we get to see the venerable #34 play at the Saddledome.

Seeing as how Joey Mac has gotten the last two starts (back to back) and has played well, I'm guessing they are auditioning him for next season. Even so, I have to think Kipper gets at least one more start at home -- my guess is that he plays against Detroit (better chance of having him leave on a winning note) as opposed to Anaheim or even Minny.

In a perfect scenario, I hope we're winning by 3 and they replace Kipper with a minute left in the game -- to allow fans an opportunity to give him a proper sendoff if in fact it is his last game on Saddledome ice.
