Not much happening at the pre-game skate today other than Brad Richardson getting scratched for the first time this season.
I also noticed Willie Mitchell came back on the ice way after the regulars left. He was seemingly working out a problem with maybe a piece of equipment…or maybe he’s dinged up a little bit? It was hard to tell exactly, but he was definitely testing something out. Whether it was his leg or maybe a new skate, I don’t know.
And here’s a little pre-game faceoff action between 4th-line centers Trevor Lewis and Colin Fraser. Fraser will make his LA Kings and season debut tonight in place of Lewis who shifts over to right wing.
I guess this is a win win for both of us tonight. Too bad Richardson is the sacraficial lamb along with it, but oh well. What’a ya gonna do? Can’t have cake, and eat it too.
