Lots of stuff for the young ones to do here, and it's a decent turnout. On the ice, the boys are in the multi-colored jerseys, and with the roster deadline approaching, there are some interesting combinations. David Steckel and Brooks Laich are skating with Donald Brashear. Another group is Brian Sutherby, Ben Clymer and Jakub Klepis. Matt Bradley is in blue with Nicklas Backstrom and Michael Nylander because Alexander Semin is not practicing. He did not play in the third period last night after being checked behind the net midway through the second, but a team spokesman said he was fine last night and reiterated that this morning.

Still no sight of Josef Boumedienne, Jame Pollock or Joe Motzko, but there should be some news about their status later today.
