Lee Stempniak replaces JT Miller in the lineup tonight

[chuckd3534]

No surprise here. Called it in the game thread Saturday that he'd be benched tonight due to the bad pass.

Might as well deal Miller for a player signed for longer than just this season (Hanzal) to help us try and win a cup now.

AV sticking with the new lines he put together last game. Would love Miller over Glass, but that ship has sailed.

Surprised Hank is in, thought this was a good spot to give him a few days off before Boston Wednesday and at Nashville Saturday afternoon.

I see AV conveniently over looked the fact Glass sucked ass all night. He lost every puck battle and was in the wrong position all game long. Sather needs to get rid of Glass. Minors or trade. So AV can't keep using that tool.

Yeah, even with a mistake here and there i'd still have Miller in than Glass.
