dallas

After missing four games with a strained shoulder, Stars center Pierre Turgeon said he will play tonight when the Stars take on Phoenix. However, Jere Lehtinen (sore ankle) and Jason Arnott (sore back/ribs) will be out against the Coyotes, though Arnott hopes to return Sunday--G Sean Burke attempts to hold the opposition to two goals or fewer for the 10th straight time for phoenix, not sure who is in nets for dallas but i would expect belfour since he won last start--

just checked and belfour is starting tonight for dallas--

theodore for montreal, khabibulin for tb...

richter to start b/b tonight for rangers and atlanta could go with backup tonight as hnlicka got hurt last night--

from atl journal
"With Hnilicka still feeling the effects of Wednesday's collision, the Thrashers will recall goalie Scott Fankhouser from the minors today. Fankhouser most recently has been on loan to Hershey (AHL). If Hnilicka does not feel well today, Cassivi likely will make his first NHL start."

wigs,

Fredrick Cassivi was in the Sens system for 3 years and I don't imagine him being anything great tonight against NYR if he starts. This adds to an already strong play with NYR. Thanks for the info wigs.

thanks for the update Horns, dont know anything about this backup. atl journal constitution is know for not being reliable so nothing is set in stone, will try to stary updated but i know hnlicka had to leave last game and atl thought nurminen needed some more work so he is already down..good luck tonight, HOrns, will definitely be watching some hoops tonight, might see a little of the stars, although i cant believe they are such heavy faves still w/o lehtinen and arnott, especially the way phoenix has been playing and their speed can give the stars fits, stars better stay in correct position tonight, b/c they will have enough trouble scoring against burke that they cant give up more than 2 themselves imo---later Horns take it easy

wigs,

Have fun watching the Stars, you are right, Coyotes playing great right now. Here is hoping our HORNS beat the Ducks tonight.
