What team beat writers are saying late this morning:
- George Parros made sure to hold Jared Boll accountable for the way he played last night. That’s why you have enforcers in the line-up.
- Goaltender Kari Lehtonen is back at practice for Atlanta today. Good news for the Thrashers, as Lehtonen could help turn around the team’s recent fortunes.
- Marty Turco is a trooper. Nice to see a player of Turco’s stature give back to the fans.
- Here are the Devils’ lines from practice this morning. This team is starting to look more like the team Lou Lamoriello envisioned at the beginning of the season.
- Michael Russo with more on the agent controversy story he broke this morning in the Star Tribune. Fascinating read.
- Here are the Bruins’ expected lines for tonight’s game. They have been absolutely tremendous defensively this season.
- Here is the latest on the rumors that the Sabres are for sale. Really doesn’t seem to be as big a deal as people are making it out to be.
