Cullen Looks Like A Go...
Some quick hits for tonight...
It appears Matt Cullen will play tonight. He skated this morning and said he felt fine afterward. Look for him to step in tonight and the Canes will utilize a brand new line that will feature Cullen centering for Sergei Samsonov and Tuomo Ruutu.
Ray Whitney who played over 13 minutes in his return from ankle surgery last night will again play. His role will enhance as he is slated to play with Eric Staal and Erik Cole.
Justin Williams, who injured his back last night , will be out for an indefinite period. It could be as long as 7 to ten days. His back "seized up" during the first period. His flare up was not induced by contact.
Peter Laviolette is leaning toward dressing a line up with seven defensemen. Look for Dennis Seidenberg to play tonight.
For the Lightning, an odd twist. Kari Rammo, who played so well against the Canes will not get the start. The Lightning will give Mike Smith, who they acquired from Dallas, another look. Smith was the third star in their 2-0 loss to Atlanta on Monday night.
See ya !

I was afraid the Canes had peaked too soon. They have played so well over the last several months. I hope they can get it back tonight!
GO CANES!
