BUFFALO, N.Y. — The McGinn family reunion tour hit upstate New York on Thursday, though it appears as if any catching up will be restricted to off the ice.
Lightning RW Tye McGinn picked a good week to be recalled from Syracuse in the AHL as he was able to face younger brother Brock, a rookie with Carolina, on Sunday and have dinner with him after the game.
On Wednesday, Tye McGinn was able to have dinner with older brother Jamie, a forward with Buffalo, as the Lightning prepared to face the Sabres.
But Tye McGinn may not be able to complete his week facing both of his brothers on the ice as he is scheduled to be a healthy scratch, pending the availability of C Cedric Paquette, who took regular line rushes during the morning skate and will be a game-time decision.
