AHL official @StimpyJD noted Brett Sutter did not play in 3rd last night. So healthish Reign natural centers now: Dowd, Newbury…and Amadio

- Brett Sutter, who had already missed every practice earlier this week, apparently did not take a third period shift. If Sutter can’t go tonight, Reign center depth is perilously thin.
- You name it, Ontario dominated in every which way last night: 59-40 even strength Corsi, 18-7 ES chances, 3-1 final.
FW Andrew Crescenzi on the ice for warmups for @ontarioreign. Good sign prior to Game 4

Re line rushes, looks like Crescenzi will be out tonight. Sutter as mentioned didn’t take warmups. Herr likely in for pro playoff debut

- Patrick McNally, who’s probably considered San Jose’s number-six defender, might get the hook tonight because of this play. Next up? Perhaps Jonny’s brother, Michael Brodzinski.
- I’d expect a number of line-up changes by Roy Sommer, as the Cuda are facing elimination. Frazer McLaren and Alex Gallant may also suit up.
- Rourke Chartier (fresh from WHL’s Kelowna) and Kevin Lebanc (OHL’s Barrie) will make their AHL debuts.
Rourke Chartier and @Str8ToTheBanc both expected to make their pro debuts tonight for @sjbarracuda in Game 4. @Mbrodzinski20 also in lineup.
