1-3-1 PP setup in the Leafs game looking really good:

17-12-14
42-15

Maybe the 2nd-unit has a chance this year.

Man, if Akeson makes the team, that guy can run a PP, at least at the AHL level -- and I think it'd translate to the NHL.

Some guys just create offense. It's just what Akeson does. If he can make the team, I think he'll help.

Can you tell it's September? Everybody's going to help!!

Ive only seen the 2nd period of the caps game, but Sanheim's speed, poise with the puck and positioning jump out. When he fills out, he's gonna be an impact player.

Fingers crossed, man. Fingers crossed -- it's the kind of break that damn near every elite team gets, some guy comes in and resurrects their career, or extends it by finding a new role

If it's a puck-moving defenseman for the Flyers, that would pretty much be amazing

- AllInForFlyers


With the loss of TImonen, we really need it..

What's the score in the game vs Washington?

- PhillySportsGuy


He's really really aggressive... stepping up, pinching, positionally, etc. He's like the anti-AMac.

No doubt, might just have another Eric Desjardins on our hands and that would be awesome!

He does jump into the play a lot. He's a glider. He never seems to be moving quickly but just moves past guys. Haven't seen him get caught once either.
