Chris Pronger (hand) is not expected to play tonight but that doesn't mean he won't.  Mike Richards missed practice yesterday but he just had the sniffles and should be good to go tonight.

Tomas Kopecky left last night's game in the 1st period after suffering a UBI... he'll be re-evaluated today.

Martin St. Louis had a few root canals following the game last night after taking a stick to the kisser... he's expected to be in the lineup on Friday but he's questionable for dinner tonight.

Steve Sullivan played last night and even scored but he only saw 6:05 of ice-time as it appears the Preds are going to spot him in certain situation as he recovers from groin surgery.
