So Mitch Fritz got the call in the morning and was set to meet the plane, is what we’ve been told. How they lined up without him:
Smith-McLean-Iggulden
Bentivoglio-Colliton-Jackman
Comeau-Hennigar-Joensuu
Pitton-Haskins-Marcinko
Nikiforov-Morency-Rechlicz
And same D and G’s.
Comeau had 57 on his helmet.
Haley came out toward the tail end of practice to skate, then worked with Matt Bertani afterward. His hand and wrist are still wrapped up pretty good. Here’s the official word on his injury: .
