There is no way he puts Komorov in for Johnsson. If he does, than all the Babcock haters will actually have something legitimate to be mad about.

Nooooooooooooo!
Bowen is on TSN 1050 saying that Komarov might be in because Kap and John "struggled" defensively Monday.

Johnsson has taken a few big hits this series he could be hurt?
Perhaps they don't like the idea of two rookies on the same line with the B's having the last change?

If he was hurt he wouldn't be out there
And the rookie thing would just be an excuse. Some of the vets are the problem with this team

This is probably moot though as AJ will play

If Komarov is gonna let off from hits and be afraid to get injured, it definitely matters since Komarov is inferior in almost every other category. Johnsson had a heck of a game in a crucial win in Game 5. Komarov doesn't score Johnsson's goal in Boston last time.

So while they aren't superstars, I think every advantage you can have you take.

I always assume they do things with reason. Why would he need an excuse? Please don't say it's his son.

Yep, kid has played well. I have no issue with Johnsson dressing.

I can see how Koma is more "safe" than those other players. Kappy and Johnsson really had some glaring turnovers the other night.

This is why I think Babcock is even remotely thinking about it. It's either you want speed and skill or safe and strength.

I then look at Johnsson's last game in Boston and he was really good with Kadri and Kapanen. Scored a crucial goal and had a lot of energy.

It's tough but you've won 3 of the last 4 games with this lineup...

Doesn't mean the reason is always the right one.
Putting Komarov in is the wrong move. This team will win on speed and skill. I'd put leivo in over Komarov at this point. But Babcock loves his vets

That's just silly.

Babcock just likes messing with everyone. The past 2 games everyone thought it was Kadri back on the line with Marner and Marleau right up until puck drop. And then at puck drop we see Plekanec instead of Kadri.

Doubt Leo is playing.
