F Nick Petersen missed game 2 due a death in the family. There is no word if he has re-joined the team yet.

Recent college-signee F Paul Thompson has impressed the coaching staff since day 1. He was a healthy scratch due to the number of dressing veterans, but when he played his first career AHL playoff game the other night, he recorded an assist with a team-low ice time up front.
