Today we see how these guys respond. They have no reason to get run out of the rink like they did last year by the Avalanche.
I would be taking Rinaldo out of the lineup myself, and likely try Janikowski to see if the tinman actually does have a pulse. If he doesn't respond than you go to the next guy for the next game.
If the Flames had not figured out that Winnipeg is going to try and grind it out with three lines, and a scoring line yesterday...they have no excuse to not be ready for that today. Hopefully they respond and play a lot more like they did on Saturday. Tkachuck got lots of buzz, but he has to do more on the ice today.
