It was the Conor Timmins show as the Toronto Maple Leafs picked up their first win of the preseason beating the Buffalo Sabres 5-2 at the Joe Thornton Community Centre in St. Thomas. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti give their thoughts on Timmins putting his offensive skills on display, how he is pushing to leave the Leafs’ front office with a tough decision on final roster cuts, and if there is a way for the team to avoid putting him on waivers. Mike and Dave look at other players who had a standout performance in the game. To end the show, Mike and Dave bring back Co-Sign/No-Sign looking at some options the Leafs will have to consider with their final roster cuts including Noah Gregor, if a trade is coming soon, where does Patrick Kane sign and which of the remaining restricted free agents digs in the longest.

Timmins was on fire tonight 2 g 2 a got too keep him around gr8 bottom pairing D . cant loose him too waivers because you know someone will claim him thats why arizona traded him here.
Robertson still looking underwhelming. When Jarnkrok comes back, there is only one spot really remaining and it's between Nick and Jarnkrok
WAY TOO MANY ADS.
Timmins EARNED a spot on the backend to start the season without a doubt.
Good Video Clicked Like .
Pretty easy to get cap compliant without any trades and keeping Timmins. I called this guy as a stud. Search cap compliment no trades on cap friendly
I know Dubas has his fans and detractors. Personally, I don't think Shanny had any responsible management option but to show him the door. When you think you're bigger than your boss and the organization, you step onto thin ice. It'll be interesting to see if this is a one-time indiscretion of KD's or a sign of things to come. However, wherever you land on that issue, Kyle Dubas made a mitful of shrewd decisions for the Leafs and one of them was trading Curtis Douglas for Connor Timmins. For a team trading all their picks, picking up a former 1st round D-man who was in a bad personal situation was a no lose/win big decision, and to me it looks like a clear win. And I don't say that because of last night – this kid is going to be a solid, maybe great NHL'er. He has serious offensive upside. My opinion – he ain't hitting the waiver wire! No way! Might get traded in a package for a bigger piece, but no chance on waivers.
Timmons has outplayed Klingberg, Gio and Lilgren if hes waived they are cluless, one of the forwards needs to go not a d.
Go Leafs Go!!!❤
GO LEAFS GO great game tonight hopefully more great games to come. Our GM has some huge Decisions to make and not alot of time to make them
Even going back to last season. Why have they not tried Timmins on the top PP. He’s good at just getting the puck to the net. I know it’s early but one game I’m seeing them force Klingbergs big shot and Keefe says. He likes the chemistry between Domi and Nylander. Well I didn’t see any and I’m a Nylander guy. I know everyone wants the Cinderella story with Domi but Keefe needs to chill out.
if not able to put Timmons in lineup, trade for tough third line defenseman or other?
would Knies – Nylander – Domi work on second line?
Trade Liljgren hardly noticed him last night
Should never have signed Klingberg to begin with
And to think we could have had Timmins playing in the playoffs instead of Holl 🤔
Sabres have 1 goalie that's all
Reilly liljegren
McCabe klingberg
Bodies Timmins
Gio 7th
Or
The same but switch McCabe and brodue and gio still 7th
Most dedication out of any leafs podcast! Good show gents. Leafs are deeep
Good evening Guys late watching this video 24 hrs. behind …Loll … It been a very busy week hope to catch up watching the videos
