Practice: Scratches and Lineup
According to Steve Zipay, the scratches for tonight’s game against Washington will be Bobby Sanguinetti, Marc Staal and Brian Boyle.
…Not a ringing endorsement for Bobby Sanguinetti here. As someone on the bubble, him not playing tonight probably doesn’t reflect well enough.
Zipay also notes what the lines looked at during practice:
Evgeny Grachev-Chris Drury- Ales Kotalik
Enver Lisin-Brandon Dubinsky-Ryan Callahan
Christopher Higgins-Vinny Prospal-Marian Gaborik
Aaron Voros-Artem Anisimov-Donald Brashear
Michael Del Zotto- Dan Girardi
Matt Gilroy- Alexei Semenov
….Gilroy and Semenov could be the third defense pairing for the Rangers this season. Del Zotto looks to be taking the place of Staal in the lineup, but he could get switched around to play with different players.
