Whereas Raphael Diaz and Philippe Furrer are out with an illness and not expected to return on Friday, Dave Sutter is still injured. He already had not played on Tuesday against the ZSC Lions following an injury that occurred last Monday. It seems that Sutter has a problem with his left ankle.
With only five defenders available, head coach Christian Dubé will move forward Nathan Marchon to the defense: Marchon, who has not ever played as a defenseman, will play in a pair with Mauro Dufner.
