Sioux and Huskies

Fighting Sioux beat writer Brad Schlossman has the lines posted for tonight's game and there are some interesting changes, Gregoire and Hextall out this weekend. The word on the street is that Hexy is out till the end of December if you watch the replay of the game Hextall crashed awkwardly into the end board during the second period of Saturday's game and didn't return.

Here are some of the predictions from the pundits.

The story lines for this game is goaltending; Mike Lee has only finished on game against the Sioux and has been on the receiving end of a a big time pummeling last February. Moving on I do expect Aaron Marvin to be hit and hit often by the Sioux players. I am also wondering if we will here from the Huskies fans about the a fourth line player that was sent out to fight the almighty second line player?
