Morning skate (11/15) notes
-- J.S. Aubin will start in goal tonight. Marc Crawford's short answer on the matter was that he wanted to play both goalies in the two games against the Ducks and that Aubin hasn't started at home for a while. Aubin's last start at home was Oct. 16 vs. Minnesota.
-- It appears that Kevin Dallman will once again be the healthy scratch tonight.
-- Rob Blake and Michael Cammalleri did not skate this morning, but it was just a standard exemption. Cammalleri admitted yesterday to being quite tired, so it's not a surprise to see him take the morning off.
-- Kyle Calder skated after practice and is scheduled to be re-evaluated tonight.
-- Raitis Ivanans should be able to start skating in a day or two and resume practicing shortly after, Crawford said.

I heard a rumor that Visnovsky is injured. Any truth to that?
Visnovsky didn't practice yesterday but he skated this morning and there's no indication that he won't play. Every player deals with something, so if he's bothered by something it's probably just knick-knack stuff.
Hey Rich,
when Calder & Ivanans return to action, who do you think will be sent down.
Its kinda hard to send Moulson back after scoring 2 goals in four game. I think he should stay. He was quite effective playing with fro & Sully in the duck game.
Ivanans eye looked pretty crazy at last Sunday's meet the players. Looks like that may take awhile.
Technically, they wouldn't need to send anyone down, since there's only one extra skater on the roster at this point. But if they did, it would probably have to be Moulson. Things can change in a week though.
So Mike Cammalleri is quite tired? Not trying to be insensitive here, but isn't that only their 2nd game in NINE days? Are they over practicing the boys?
Thank GOD! With Aubin in the net we will win this game for sure. I predict that we will win either 4-1 or 4-2 depending on how the defense plays.
