Shabanov back will help spread things even more, maybe help the 4th line out (not him down there just someone other than MacLean
As a brand new father, I can not for the life of me imagine travel cross country the day after my child is born and playing a professional hockey game. That seems unlikely, I would even want to miss the Utah game as well. He’s going to be running on zero sleep, and the dad powers take a day or two to kick in
