You mean Lehtinen? He was day-today with a groin injury, and is expected to play tonight.

Jere Lehtinen remains day-to-day with a groin injury for the Stars. He skated on his own in practice Tuesday and could play tonight.

Its a bit harder in a noisy pub with SportsJunky asking if Ovechkin has already been picked and Aeneas throwing peanuts at people.

Junky took forever....next time we should bring the Jeopardy music.

As for the picks, you're going to see unconventional picks in odd rounds, in a draft of 11 players with 14 participants there is a fair bit of leeway.

The Stars are expected to allow highly touted free agent Fabian Brunnstrom to make his NHL debut tonight. He has been skating on a line with Brad Richards and Sean Avery.

Looks like Fabian scored a hat-trick in his first game!

Yah, I think a round for the league participants would make a good penalty.

And "show up 35 minutes late" Locke should ante up for a round himself.

And finally, troutman.http://www.sportsnet.ca/thewire/hock...orik_out_with/

Minnesota Wild star Marian Gaborik will miss tonight's game at Florida because of what the team is calling a lower-body injury.

Gaborik has been plagued by groin injuries throughout his career, missing a total of 75 games the past five seasons.

No worries. Arnott will miss 2-3 games max.

Gaborik is not hurt - he was pulled out because he is on his way to MTL.

Lehtinen will play in next DAL game.

Havlat already has 5 points.

Team Brittle Bones will prevail!

I screwed up. That 6 point night took me out of the running for the hockey cards.

I guess my playing footsies with Lynne didn't distract her enough. Well, random, accidental kicking of a foot under the table isn't really footsies, but I can dream.

Another shutout for Lynne.

And a good thing Aeneas got a bet in with Bruce. He's looking in tough with everyone else, especially Eddie.
