this was from this morning:
NOTES: Coach Denis Savard expects Martin Havlat back in the lineup tonight. Havlat missed the game Tuesday with flulike symptoms.
? Martin Lapointe, one of two Hawks to have played in every game, stayed off the ice to nurse a bruised thigh but is expected to play tonight.
? Rookie defenseman Cam Barker will be back in the lineup after missing three games with a bruised ankle.
? Martin St. Pierre, who was rushed back from Norfolk on Tuesday to play against the Red Wings, practiced with the Hawks on Wednesday, then was sent back to the minors.
? Nikolai Khabibulin will start his second consecutive game in goal tonight, and Patrick Lalime will be between the pipes Friday in Detroit
