[Dion TheFluff]

outside of getting to see how Minten does in a full NHL lineup, I'm mostly excited that this is being broadcasted on TSN.

Kyper and Bourne are insufferable.

 

[Al14]

I expect the Wings to dominate, just to show how overpaid and overrated our core 4 are.

The Habs did it on Monday by coming back from being down 2 goals.

 

[Mitch nylander]

I'd like them to play Minten and Cowan one last time.

Cowan get sent down?

 

[SprDaVE]

Cowan get sent down?

No. Likely will play on the last game and then get sent down.

 

[ErnieLeafs]

I’m gonna see a first line of Holmberg-Kampf-Reeves on saturday, and I know it

 

[Fogelhund]

Cowan get sent down?

No. He's just not playing.

Maybe Clifford Cowan Robertson instead jk.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Return of Holl

 

[Burnie97]

Leafs should crush them tonight looking at the lines on paper.... but until the regular season starts... other than guys trying to make the team it'll be a lot of floating around.

With a hard working Detroit team full of a bunch of nobodies and Holl scoring a couple of times.

Definitely a Holl hat trick, #1 star incoming lol

 

[Kiwi]

Looking forward to seeing Minten again
The kids done nothing but impress

Looking forward to the season but this has been the most fun preseason we've had in awhile imo

Watching this new batch of kids starting to develop and push for spots already always makes these camps less painful to watch

 

[Maple Leaf]

No injuries please please

 

[Rob Brown]

Obviously it's on him to win a spot but I feel for Robertson. Should just send him down at this point and let him get focused on the Marlies and hopefully forcing his way back up.

He probably plays in the last game.

 

[crump]

Holl is gonna be Bobby Orr and Scott Stevens tonight all rolled up into one.

 

[Budz22]

Return of Holl

Justin Holl is +4 in preseason so far?

 

[HockeyVirus]

He hasn't been good enough, but he also hasn't been terrible which is encouraging. In good spots, getting chances, seems faster and able to follow NHL play a lot better than he did before. However he is clearly rusty (of course he has barely played the last few years) and looks like he took shooting lessons from Jason Blake sniping into the goalies crest every shot he gets.

He can use some time with the Marlies to refind his shot, his game, what makes him special. I think actually before he had the physical tools but lacked the mentality, now he has the mentality but rust has taken his tools. It's encouraging to me that he now has everything he needs and just needs to put it all in the toolbox.

Go down to the Marlies and score 15 points in 10 games, get your flow and confidence back, and come back with everything you have learned when someone gets injured. This is not the end of the line for him, and as long as he understands all of this and has the right attitude he will be fine.

 

[kevsh]

plus Klingberg, who may go today.

I thought he was just about to resume skating and still not close to returning. At least he hasn't participated in team practice yet.

What’s a couple more days up with the big club going to matter? IMO he’s had a very good camp, of not for waivers, he would have been given a much harder look to break with the team. Unfortunately, this has been his short term destiny since the start. He will come up first injury, I’m still keen on the kid, he hasn’t played and he has hands, finish.
