Domi/Roy/Robertson 3rd line. Might be a defensive liability tho
What a glorious time of year. Baseball playoffs and NHL season starting. My heart is happy.
Bruins probably can't keep Beecher what with Kuraly and Kastelic both as potential 4th line centers. Probably going to have to either trade or waive him. Probably wouldn't cost much in trade and his on a stupid cheap cap hit. He doesn't generate much offense but he wins draws and is a pretty good pk guy.
Always good to see Steve push a good cause
Steve, it's gonna be tough doing LFR without the victory puppies
I NEEDED THAT! blue room is BACK!
Dude, where are your Shoulders 🤔??? Just Curious 🤨
This team is going to have a tough time scoring goals this season. And they look old and slow
The Jays put 10 on the Yankees, they'll be fine. They've easily won the season series against all the remaining playoff teams in the AL. Therefore, since they have homefield advantage, I'm cautiously optimistic about their chances. I'll be concerned if they play the Mariners. Those are long flights.
I liked lorentz at center… just put him back.
When ya gonna remove that ridiculous rainbow Leaf from the wall? I guess Steve continues to support men in girls change rooms.
Steve iam a leafs fan but i think we are in trouble hope i am wrong
NHL Fans, specifically us Avs fans who've lived this "The officiating is dogshit and we're escalating towards another Bertuzzi situation"
Gary "NHL officiating is amazing, it's the best, truly the best officiating, all the other leagues wish they had officiating like us"
DOPS "5 dollar fine, sit in the corner and think about what you did for 2 mins"
This is fucking pre-season, by post season if these 2 teams meet, someone might die. The NHL is a fucking joke right now.
Leafs looking awful
Serious question why don’t you do a baseball LFR
If what Masters tweeted is true, Leafs are screwed. Roy on 4th line? Have fun putting a $3M dollar player, who was the key player in the Marner trade, in the last line with limited playing time 😂😂
Bo Groulx is a former duck. Bo stands for Benoit-Oliver. He won't score at all, but he is willing to fight.
It's B.O. Groulx. Benoit-Olivier Groulx
That's funny how there's a player named Brandon Bussi in the league…Lolol
He has a broken foot Steve, he'll be back in 4-6 weeks
Wow Blue Jays 10-1. I remember 1992 like it was yesterday. Scorer on each line, 1st Matthews, 2nd Nylander, 3rd Robertson. Kampf, even though he cleared waivers, I'm relatively sure he can stay with the Leafs, play and practice for 30 days (that's how they handled Jason Spezza), if you send him to Marlies it will mark him as a declining minor leaguer, kill trade value, he's better than that.
I am not a Domi fan. Put him on the fourth line.
I'd love for Reimer to play a few regular season minutes before handing the back up to Hildeby. Good idea, Kampf in Laughton's place. I think Robertson should play, a scorer, great 5 on 5 stats, you can't teach goal scoring. In the 108 years of the team, only 4 goalies have had 2 tours of duty (played for another NHL team in between) with the Leafs: Ben Grant, Mike Palmateer, Jeff Reese, CuJo. Only 3 players have had 3 tours with the Leafs, Ben Grant, Wendel Clark, Yanic Perreault.
Kampf is a filler on the line. Jarnkrok or Robertson in that spot on Wednesday. Berube doesn't want to put the wrong guy in that spot because either one of them could be traded, everyone knows Kampf won't be on the opening day roster. Laughton being hurt really shows how thin they are down the middle if someone gets hurt.
Cowan ever look small out there, he should be with the Marlies.
What was the point of Reimer signing a PTO if he’s not playing a pre season game
When sdpn preseason episode came out season start in days hurry up
That is very unfortunate if Domi ends up on the third line again. I understand Steve’s point that it’s October but I don’t agree with it. Domi needs to be given a secure chance to succeed. He needs to be put on the right wing for a decent sample size without being moved up and down the lineup. Then we can see if he is truly worth of 1st line right wing. It’s so unfortunate that because a player on the fourth line got hurt that a first line players loses his opportunity and is put in a position where he won’t succeed.
If barkov doesn't play leafs have a chance. I'm a fan of barkov tho as hockey player so sucks for him and hopefully he recovers well..we going to miss Marner during the season.
Nicky Bobby's as good as gone, I'd say.
…and I don't get it.
Attitude?
Does he hit the schneef?
From what I've seen so far, the Leafs play slow….and better pick it up, or they are gong to watch teams skate them into the ice.
Thank goodness Taveres signed cheap
Bottom 6 without Laughton should be:
Joshua Domi Cowan
Lotentz Roy Cowan
The Leafs lineup is a disaster as usual. None of their additions are game changers.Seriously, James Reimer? part of the 2013 third period collapse against the Bruins? Hildeby?
Leafs look horrible.
