Jonas Gustavsson skated in a full practice with the team on Tuesday, but despite Ron Wilson believing he is potentially ready for Saturday night’s game, it’s more likely he’ll see action on Monday night instead.
Chemmy update: Per Mirtle and AM640: Monster full practice today, could start tomorrow.

pogge too
when he was called up, i pondered the horrible thought of being beat by raycroft and pogge within two days. Back to ECHL with the poggenator, though. Still, I would LOVE to see Raycroft start saturday. I say it’s a can’t lose situation as a fan.
Well if Joey Mac plays bad enough on Saturday they might HAVE to put Jonas in. Correct me if I’m wrong but Reimer isn’t making the trip out west?
I'm not even supposed to be here today..!
I’d hope he’d make the trip.

Kovy’s face is everywhere down here. The IceForum and the Cooler (the only decent rinks in Atlanta) have his face plastered everywhere. If a person can name a hockey player, it’s Ilya Kovalchuk (though they usually can’t pronounce his name lol). If he walks, this franchise is dead. And then where would I go to see the Leafs? Nashville? I don’t think so. Pay him whatever the hell he wants,
