Hartford Pregame

John Persson’s on for warmup at least; he and Brett Gallant split a spot, but otherwise the lineup looks similar to last night’s, with a defense tweak.

Dov Grumet-Morris is away from the Wolf Pack with his wife in labor, so it’s a Jason Missiaen/Scott Stajcer tandem for the moment. Micheal Haley has been back for a bit, though.

Speaking of Hartford, I’ll be on the Pack’s radio broadcast with Bob Crawford in the second intermission.

Always enjoy the old-teammate chats at the red line. A few today: Gallant-Haley, Powe-Bouchard, Bruton-Hensick.
