Friday ramblings

Hey folks,

I won't be making the trip to Edmonton/Vancouver, so let's get the updates in as best we can for the weekend:
    Chris Conner will give the Stars an extra body in Canada, but who knows if he plays or not. The lines have built up some good chemistry right now, and I'm not sure they want to mess with it. That goes for the Ivan Vishnevskiy situation, too... defensive pairings have done well lately. Don't muss with 'em.

    Joel Lundqvist and Fabian Brunnstrom will stay home on this one; Dave Tippett said Lundqvist is getting closer (he had an off-ice workout while the team practiced, and it looked like he went for a quick go-around on the ice after the team finished). So maybe he'll be ready for the trip to Detroit/Phoenix.

    Otherwise, the lines were exactly as they were on Wednesday night.
    Oh, and Tippett also didn't know how he would play Marty Turco and Tobias Stephan on these back to backs. Said there's no plan in place. OK, so here's what I would do: Play Stephan in Edmonton, then give Marty the game in Vancouver. He'd still have three days between that game and the trip up to Detroit. But that's just me...

    So what would you all do with the goaltenders?
