which ones?
- senstroll

For ease:

Most of Columbus
Most of Vegas
Most of San Jose
Most of St. Louis
Quite a few on Winnipeg
Numerous on Nashville
And a smattering of Islanders/Penguins


Don't need all of them. Don't need Orr, McLaren, Fraser, Mike Brown or David Broll on the PP.

Just some size and toughness that play a very simple game to add to our skilled players.

Easiest thing for the Leafs to do is get 3 tougher LW and 2 tougher D men and that'll help.

Hyman Tavares Marner
LW Matthews Bracco
LW Kadri Kapanen
LW Gauthier Moore

Honestly, my gut kept telling me the Leafs were gonna pull through.

But my brain keeps reminding me of how badly you guys have looked defensively in the last months.

So yeah.....

BUT THERE IS HOPE MY FRIEND.

Since my brain was never known as the smartest.

Did they end up explaining why they'd burn a contract year by playing him 10 games before sending him back to Junior?

I thought he was playing very well before he got injured.

I saw you on my way to work today. FYI, when you're trying to pull something that's hanging out of a trash container, don't stand on the lid, you're just fighting against yourself

If Vegas continues to play like they did last night, they won't get a fifth game. They looked completely caught in the headlights.
