A sore ankle will keep Nicklas Lidstrom out of the lineup tonight at Columbus. The future-HOF defenseman took a puck to the ankle Saturday against Colorado and soreness has persisted. It will be the second game Lidstrom will miss this season as he missed one game in January due to the flu -- an absence that snapped his 213-game playing streak. The 41-year-old is 10-21-31 in 62 games this season.
