TJ Constant

TJ is out due to injury, he hurt himself in the game vs the Kings. No timeline on his return.

Edward Bayer will get a chance to shine tonight centering the top line in place of TJ.

It seems that Jim Mollard has decided to go with size and toughness on the bottom two lines. Plenty of size and weight in that third line.
