God I can't stand the leafs.
i don't disagree, but also won't be surprised if they only tinker a bit to start the season... lots of new faces in a group that was injury ravaged last year. Some consistency and continuity could be of value and desired.
Good to have hockey back and the team looked good in the first period against what's supposed to be one of the better teams. Still work to do but looks decent so far.
Still not sure about Newhook. Haven't seen anything from him tonight or in pre-season that has stood out. It's early though. Hope it comes soon.

Looks like Don Cherry’s tailor is employed again
Laffs gonna laffLeafs board having an orgasm with Reaves for delivering two hits and then pissed at Xhekaj for out muscling him into the net.

Gallagher is there because there is absolutely no way to get rid of him.

We need to bite the bullet and either convince Gally to go on LTIR or waive him.
Unfortunately, he's just too slow nowadays, which is a terrible combination given he can't PK and is too small to be effective at 5v5.

Hawks are hoping some of his size rubs off on him so Bedard comes in at 6'2 210lbs next year

Well I hope I don't ruffle too many feathers but I gotta say it. Re: Slavkovsky.
The kid continues to play scared out there, he is nervous and thinking too damn much. In the defensive zone he is always turning his head around as and wondering if he is in the right spot all the damn time, in the offensive end he is simply standing around like a statue most of the time trying to make sure he is in a good spot while the rest of his line does all the work but when he gets the puck eventually ( and it's starting to look that guys don't trust to give it to him) the puck usually quickly dies on his stick. He seems so wrapped up with nerves that he is just hoping the puck comes to him and he can score a goal and keep the heat off him from the press and fans for one more day, he clearly doesn't believe he is good enough for this league right now and it shows. Offensively he is playing like a guy whose head is all over the place and afraid of making mistakes and so he can do little with any conviction.
He needs to figure out that he needs to get INVOLVED out there, not stand around waiting for the play to come to him but for him to actively go towards the play and get his nose dirty, screw the one timer goal from the outside pretty stuff..................get after the puck!! get after the game!! You're a big boy, a man child with some skill.................use it!! he needs to start being a player out there and a guy who helps his line and his team by being effective and making things happen even f it is not him scoring the goals and he will feel better abut himself and show himself he can play in this league. The rest will come if he can just get comfortable and not have the weight of the universe on his shoulders anymore, only one way to do that when you're a young kid struggling..........................get after it!!
Coaches and players gotta talk to this kid to get moving out there and fight for the puck, want the puck, move your feet, get physically engaged so you become comfortable and then your natural hockey playing instincts and skill start to dial in.
I'm a patient guy but he's a first overall, we need him to star showing more even if it's his second season

Same, but we didn't miss much. Classic Leafs gaff and Xhekaj dummied Reaves.
