Kari Lehtonen - you’re up
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
It’s back to Kari Lehtonen for game three in New York. Bob Hartley announced today after practice that he’s returning to his young goalie, and expects him to play well on Tuesday in New York. He said this one was a no-brainer, pointing out that Lehtonen plays well at Madison Square Garden and that he has the talent to win the big game.
Lehtonen said he’s ready to go. He admitted that there were a couple days where he was a little disappointed and down after being benched, but some quiet time at home helped him turn the corner.
Hedberg, as usual, handled the whole situation with class. “There’s no room for egos,” he said when asked about his reaction.
No other lineup changes for game three.
