Re: 2007 Playoffs Round 3 - Wings vs. Mighty Ducks

Lebda Says He's Ready To Go
If you take everybody at their word today, the lineup will be identical to Game 6 vs. San Jose. The idea of skating seven defenseman was discussed prior to the last game, but Mike Babcock decided he'd rather dress 12 forwards and six 'D'. And it appears he's sticking with Kyle Calder, despite his limited ice time.
As for the Sharks, Todd Marchant will be in the lineup, and while he hasn't played in a month, it at least gives Randy Carlyle a little more confidence to actually throw a fourth line over the boards. (Probably with Brad May and Shawn Thornton, though Carlyle has moved May up at times to try to light a fire under Dustin Penner.) Marchant, who was probably ready to play at the end of the last round, played really well last year for the Ducks in their playoff run. And once he gets his legs under him, he could be a factor in this series.
