Mike 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 There will be some booing tomorrow and it won't be because of Kopecky's poor play. Update from Tuesday's late afternoon practice: Wings coach Mike Babcock it's Tomas Kopecky's turn to sit out Wednesday's game against the Sharks, as he continues his fourth-line rotation. Chris Chelios will sit out on defense, as Brad Stuart returns after missing 14 games with injuries. Sharks coach Todd McLellan said Claude Lemieux, making a comeback at age 43, will be in the lineup. The long-time Wings antagonist expects the typical reaction from the Joe Louis Arena crowd. "No different than what it used to be,'' Lemieux said. "Don't expect to become a fan favorite in Detroit, but it's not a worry of mine. I just worry about playing the game and helping the club as best I can.''

GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 Actually, I think Kopecky should play tomorrow, with explicit instruction from management that he has to beat up Lemieux in a fight in order to secure his spot on the 4th line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
