Here are some Alaska Aces who didn't play in Monday night's 3-2 exhibition win over Las Vegas but will be in coach Rob Murray's lineup Tuesday night, according to the bench boss:
NHLer Nate Thompson, and returning defensemen Steve Ward and Kane Lafranchise, and returning forwards Garry Nunn and Jordan Kremyr.
Murray after the morning skate said NHLers Brandon Dubinsky and Joey Crabb, who played on a line together Monday, will both get the night off.
Starting in goal will be returner James Reid.
