Red Wings head coach Mike Babcock said today that the only lineup change going into tonight’s Game 3 against the San Jose Sharks will be veteran forward Kris Draper replacing Drew Miller. This is according to Ansar Khan of Mlive.com.
In addition, defenseman Brian Rafalski, who hasn’t skated the past couple days because of his knees says that he will play tonight.
“There was a little swelling in the knee. I’m staying off of it as much as I can before tonight,” Rafalski said. “I’m 100-percent sure I’m playing tonight. We’ve got time to take advantage of it, so it’ll be better for tonight.”
Here is tonight’s anticipated lineup according to Khan…

Bertuzzi-Zetterberg-Cleary
Abdelkader-Filppula-Hudler
