“We have four guys in Grand Rapids, forwards, that are dying to be Red Wings, in (Gustav) Nyquist, (Tomas) Tatar, (Joakim)Andersson and (Riley) Sheahan. They think they’re ready to be on the team, so they’re ready to go if (others) are not ready to go.”

The teams will be mixed up, both teams having some NHL and AHL lines/d-pairs. Howard will bein goal and Gus in the other, doesn't seem like Mrazek will play. Which is fine, Howie and Gus are the ones who really need to get up to speed. I really, really hope some awesome human being streams this.

Well that sucks about Mrazek but I do understand both Howard in one net and Gus in the other.

Yeah, and hopefully Gus will shine enough that we can split the workload between the two.</p></blockquote>

I'm excited for monster. He was who I hoped we were going to sign to back up jimmy and I was stoked when we did. But, in all honesty, I think both him and jimmy are going to be a little rusty in the red and white game.. Hopefully I'm wrong.

I would think they would have a little rust, but not that much beyond anyone else. Weren't both of them attending the "Troy training camp" that the players had organized themselves? I would imagine they both were taking shots during the lockout and had a chance to adjust themselves to the puck again, but obviously not game ready. I think this game will be beneficial by all means and wonder how many other teams are following suite.
