First, third and fourth lines stay the same. Defensive pairings stay the same as well.
I know there are fans out there upset about Zucker being scratched, at least if twitter has anything to say about it. Here's the deal though; Zucker was out of place all night. Yes, there are other guys who made mistakes and who probably deserve to be scratched as well.
But when you get a call up to the NHL, it's basically an audition. You have to prove that you are better then most of the other players out there. It's not a matter of saying "Hey, I wasn't the worst person out on the ice last night".
Regardless, Zucker is out tonight and most likely won't travel with the team to Colorado tomorrow. No updates on Granlund yet, other than as far as I've been told he hasn't skated for a few weeks.
