GDT: Detroit @ Toronto 7pm - TSN

[The Masters]

what a snipe

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

I think Knies may end up being better than Bertuzzi/Domi and be our best LW by the end of the year.

He might be already

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Hmm not a fan of how the near full squad has looked the past two games.

 

[HockeyVirus]

I think Knies may end up being better than Bertuzzi/Domi and be our best LW by the end of the year.

Perfect timing to get this injection of ELC youth that are legit top 9 players.

 

[Racer88]

So is this Detroits AHL line up against the Leafs basically opening night lineup?

 

[LeafSteel]

Wow. Samsonov knows the game has started right?

 

[LeafsFan89]

Are we literally losing to a farm team?

Jesus.

 

[Gallagbi]

Was the first goal as soft as the second?

 

[kb]

No, Holmberg is better.

Minten has a bright future though.

Even if Minten was better, Holmberg is 24 now, give him some time with the big club to grow, keep Minten on an ELC.

The difference is minimal at best.

I don't know how anyone can watch and say Holmberg is better. He's has a meh camp.

 

[Racer88]

I know it's pre-season but Matthews still don't look like Matthews

Kinda like most of last year

Was the first goal as soft as the second?

Almost

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Matthews has just not been all that great for the entire pre season. Going to assume he is just pacing himself until I see it continue into the regular season lol

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

The defense is looking like it'll be a big issue this year, unless they make changes

 

[Macallan18]

I’m here just to see if Minten beats up the Grit King Hollsy at some point tonight….

Ahh you missed the injury

 

[Guided by Veseys]

Time to double shift Knies.

 

[notbias]

I don't know how anyone can watch and say Holmberg is better. He's has a meh camp.

He's been fine. He's also been with largely nothing players.

Minten has been given Knies every game who is better than anyone Holmberg played with.

I'm also most concerned with how Holmberg did last season than this pre-season.

 

[Detroit Knights]

So is this Detroits AHL line up against the Leafs basically opening night lineup?

there are about 1.5 forward lines that are probably going to start day 1 and Lyon is most likely our third goalie.

was fully expecting a ROUTE from tor tonight. But this is all of the players last shot at making the lineup for the dress rehearsal on saturday wiht you guys.

 

[LeafSteel]

Ahh you missed the injury

Yes, just tuning in. Injury to who?

 

[LeafsFan89]

Matthews has just not been all that great for the entire pre season. Going to assume he is just pacing himself until I see it continue into the regular season lol

Hasn't this core been "pacing itself" for years now? Didn't they tell Keefe to f*** off one year about being on their asses for the lack of intensity and they'll show up in the playoffs?

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Jesus Christ Sammy hold on to your stick

 

[Burnie97]

Honestly don't even hate how Leafs are playing. Young Detroit guys are playing pretty well and Leafs need to hit the net. Sammy needs to make an extra save too.

 

[Racer88]

McCabe just got out muscled for the puck…….I thought he was supposed to be this hard working dude

 

[Aashir]

Man I have not liked Samsonov this preseason

 

[glue]

Lol looks more like Detroit’s regular lineup against the leafs AHL team

 

[HockeyVirus]

The defense is looking like it'll be a big issue this year, unless they make changes

Defense hasn't even been that bad. 2 PP goals against. Chances both ways for the most part

 

[Leafidelity]

Samsonov is not having a great camp
