Gaborik V Lemaire; Gabby takes Rd. 1

It's interesting that the two biggest names in Minnesota Wild franchise history left in the same offseason and ended up as rivals out east. Especially considering their rocky relationship. So, Marian Gaborik, when healthy, will be skating against his only other NHL coach six times this year when the New York Rangers face the New Jersey Devils. Gaborik had a goal in each of his first two games and you can bet that he will really want to light it up against Lemaire at every chance this year. The Devils held Gaborik scoreless last night, but the Rangers were victorious going to 2-1 while New Jersey looks for its first win under Lemaire in his second tenure with the franchise.
