The players looked rested and ready to go during practice.
Ron Hainsey – Will he be able to play tonight? What happened? Not expecting injury to be long term. Any reaction to firing of Boucher. What would he like to see from his group? Getting Enstrom back.
Evander Kane – Any reaction to firing of Guy Boucher? What is he expecting from his group today? Feeling energized after a day off? Challenge faced by players when coach gets fired mid-season?
Tobias Enstrom – Is he good to go for tonight? Biggest challenge he will face being off this long? What has he seen from this team watching from Press Box? Looking forward to race for a playoff spot.
Mark Stuart – Is he ready to go tonight? Is Tampa more dangerous because of coaching change? Emphasis has to be getting back to the way they play when winning. Controlling their own destiny.
