Terry Murray on Erik Ersberg's first start of the season tonight...

Does anything change for Ersberg in that his first start of the season likely won't be an easy one against the Ducks?
``Your preparation is going to be totally focused, that is for sure. Your first start of the year. It's been a long go for him sitting there and watching. He's cleaned up a couple of games, so he's had some action. He's excited about it. We're looking for him to be confident in his game. He's going to be called on to make a couple of big stops, we know that. This team always generates good offense. We'll see what we can do. ''

Murray's Brain: Maybe if Ersberg gets shelled by the Ducks, which is what I am secretly hoping will happen, I can start my love Labarbera for the rest of the year.
