I wouldn't underestimate McCue and Voit , both of whom will give our defence problems.Cowan and Minten are recognizable talents.

So no official goalie replacement yet ?
Nice ok I thought I saw that wasn't official, but I'll take it.

What a potentially canon moment for him
Why do you post a Lacrosse roster ? Anyone has the Maple Leafs Toronto roster ?
Yes Sir.I wouldn't underestimate McCue and Voit , both of whom will give our defence problems.
Yes Sir.
There will be a couple of surprises but our defense is going to have to learn how to deal with those types of players.
Keeping them pointless and on the back foot is what I'm hoping to see.
I'm really just looking for a cohesiveness that can carry into main camp...
For Laval in particular.
I'd also love to see a couple of our kids eventually pushing some vets to their limits.
I'm not a we have to keep this vet or we have to keep that vet observer.
I don't expect playoffs and don't really care either way.
I'm more interested in seeing how quickly we can fill holes with upgrades.
That's what rebuilding is about and the sooner we can get the winners integrated the better.
As always happens in these types of competitions, some bubbles may be burst. Nevertheless, I think the group of defencemen that Montreal will be sending is clearly a notch above the Leafs' defensive prospects. Our forwards, not so much. I expect Florian will continue to display his developmental trajectory from an afterthought to a possible top nine forward. Should be very instructive.Yes Sir.

I agree we don't have an Easton Cowan up front but Owen Beck had a pretty good handle on him in the post season.As always happens in these types of competitions, some bubbles may be burst.

Don't know but we did invite Mateo Drobac as a replacement for Quentin Miller.When do physicals start? Anyone know?
So 2 invites?? Ya. This’ll go over well.
Not sure who the leafs have as goaltenders (they’ll probably find a way to put Woll in there!), but we have 2 invites playing? I don’t see this going well at all.As always happens in these types of competitions, some bubbles may be burst.

The score/result of this 'competition' is of limited concern. The majority of players who are participating will not be NHLers. What you want to see is that our highest regarded prospects (Hutson, Reinbacher, Beck, Xhekaj, etc.) play dominating roles regardless of the score. If that doesn't happen, then that should be a concern.So 2 invites?? Ya. This’ll go over well.

Lmao, just a bit west of Cambodia actually.I heard Jimmy Buffet sing, It's Five O' Clock Somewhere. But midnight? Where the heck are you at, Cambodia??
The way the roster is made, it looks like the Habs are more interested in evaluing players who will turn pro over the season (start or end of it) and invites. The few AHL prospects are there to give some leadership and fill in the slots left.So 2 invites?? Ya. This’ll go over well.
He was surprisingly good in Laval last season.Davidson is still my darkhorse, stay healthy!
Agreed. He is a player I wouldn't want to trade unless it was part of a deal for a Laine level player.Davidson is still my darkhorse, stay healthy!
True, but pride and the fact that it’s the Leafs are factors.The score/result of this 'competition' is of limited concern. The majority of players who are participating will not be NHLers.

Sorry I meant 2 invites for goalies.The way the roster is made, it looks like the Habs are more interested in evaluing players who will turn pro over the season (start or end of it) and invites. The few AHL prospects are there to give some leadership and fill in the slots left.
