Gameday Notes: Rangers vs Wild

Some updates regarding tonight's game from Andrew Gross, Steve Zipay and Russo's Rants:

• Sean Avery, Marian Gaborik & Chris Higgins (all with knee injuries) won't play tonight in Minnesota.
  
  
• Dane Byers has been recalled from Hartford and will be in the lineup. Donald Brashear will also be back in the lineup for the Rangers.
  
  
• P.A. Parenteau who scored on Long Island in his first game as a Ranger will play in his second game this season.
  
  
• Henrik Lundqvist is back in goal for the Rangers. No confirmation yet who will play for the Wild but it's likely Backstrom.
  
  
• Petr Sykora will be in the lineup for the Wild against one of his former teams.
  
  
• If you were excited to see Brashear tango with the "Boogey Man" then I'm sorry to disappoint you but Derek Boogaard is expected to be a scratch.
