Mike Hoffman is projected to start Thursday's game versus the New York Rangers on a line with Kyle Turris and Daniel Alfredsson. "There's a little bit of pressure (to create offense), but that's my game, that's what I'm going to have to do to stay up here," said Hoffman. He has generated 13 goals and 15 assists in 41 contests with Binghamton in the AHL this year. Hoffman played in one game with Ottawa last season.
