Columbus Blue Jackets @ Phoenix Coyotes
VS 
Tonight is finally the night! After months without any real hockey, suffering though the brutal iceless summer, desperatly watching workouts, pre-camp camp, real camp and then 8 not counting preseason games (Including a Winnipeg HOME GAME!) It’s finally time! Time to start the regular season!
Tonight our Phoenix Coyotes led by Captain Shane Doan will go to work against Rick Nash and the Columbus Blue Jackets. The even younger than last year Phoenix Coyotes (How is that possible?) With 10 rookie and sophmore players starting the season on the roster, Our yotes will be raw, but with lots and lots of skill. Rookies Mikkel Boedker, Kyle Turris, Viktor Tikhonov, Kevin Porter and Jonas Ahnelov (who is starting the season on the IR) All made the team AND will get significant ice time, playing on the top lines with Doan and Jokinen. Ilya Bryzgalov will start in goal tonight and we’ll have him for the entire season this year.
Starting lines for Phoenix tonight: (barring last minute changes, as usual)
Doan – Mueller – Carcillo
Boedker – Jokinen – Turris
Hanzal – Tikhonov – Winnik
Fedoruk – Porter – Rheinprecht
Jovonovski – Michalek
Morris – Sauer
Yandle – Hale
