Am I really allowed to write a Saturday game preview after what happened seven days ago? If we lose again, don’t blame me.
Indications seem to be that Mike Babcock is leaning — ever so slightly — to the depth group of Nic Petan, Jason Spezza, and Justin Holl. The trio played twice during the week, with Holl getting his third game in a row today while the two forwards get swapped out for Dmytro Timashov and Nick Shore.
Before the jokes, the last time Holl played three games in a row was game 81 of last year.
