Original Post:
Steve Zipay tweets that Michal Rozsival (ribs) is out of tonight's line-up meaning Ryan McDonagh will make his NHL debut tonight against the Dallas Stars.
McDonagh had 1g, 7a in 38 games for the CT Whale this season.
...on Twitter @ScottyHockey was saying lining McD up against Richards and Eriksson could be a tall order for the rookie, and while it will be you've got to start the kid somewhere.
