The problem with icing another skeleton crew on Saturday is you don't want too many guys sitting too long. We all didn't like how sluggish they looked after other long breaks and we wouldn't like it even more if they did the same for game 1.
As long as Peters monitors the game and sits out the top line if the Oilers start to get stupid I think they'll be fine. I could also see him sitting out the top line or if it's early in the game giving them limited shifts if Johnny reaches 100 points.
