After sitting out as a healthy scratch for the previous two games, Semin is back in the lineup for Tuesday's matchup against the Blue Jackets. "I'd like to see [Semin] work, work real hard, work similar to what our twelve forwards who have been in the lineup the last two games have worked," coach Bill Peters said. "I thought our work ethic has been very good and I think it's contagious, so I'd like to see him compete at the level we're at and play at the pace the league is at." Hopefully the benching is enough to light a fire under Semin and restore some of his fantasy value that has deteriorated so far this season. Semin is once again expected to skate on the Canes' top line alongside Eric Staal and Jiri Tlusty.
