Lack will get the starting nod against Columbus on Thursday, Mike Maniscalco of 99.9 The Fan reports.

Analysis:

Lack's start continues the two-and-two rotation currently being utilized by coach Bill Peters. At this point in the season, both teams are likely just playing for pride, although the 28-year-old will want to impress at the end of the season in hopes of earning a starting role heading into next year. Lack has grabbed just one win in his last five outings, but he'll have a chance to make a good impression against a Jackets squad that's averaging only 2.53 goals per night.
