[SprDaVE]

[LeafalCrusader]

Should be rotated to the Marlies

Him and Clifford can rotate games for the Marlies.

 

[Stephen]

This is going to be a big benchmark game.

 

[hangman005]

Keys to Victory: Gets the beer guy to the Vegas bench early and/or offer them a free tee off time that coincides with puck drop.

but seriously, hope it's a good game tonight.

 

[Schennanigans]

Schedule gonna start to be tough. Btw the record of the Leafs and Vegas in the OP is wrong.

 

[Commander Clueless]

Oh a 10PM start time.

Guess I'll check back in at 3AM when the newborn decides I've had too many consecutive hours of sleep.

I don't miss those days.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Now here’s a good test for them.
Bonus that it starts at a decent hour for a change.

 

[ClarkSittler]

Domi on the wing with Tavares shouldn’t have nylander on the rw

I'd like to try it out, lots of hockey skill on the same line. Might hurt defensively but Tavares wins a lot of draws so they'd have the puck quite a bit.

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

Highly unlikely I'll make it through this game. Want to have a nap this evening but couldn't make it happen. I'm surprised I even made it through writing this post.

We’ve seen it for 2 years in spurts it starts decent then becomes a tire fire in our own end id rather Robertson up there than domi he just doesn’t look like he’s got it

I'm just hoping the team makes it through this game. Hopefully the coach has explained to them that there is this thing called the third period.

This 7pm start is killing me. Now I know how @Cleetus feels. It's almost bedtime for me!

 

[wingman75]

Figure they might have to withstand a flury in the first five?
Hope Woll is firing on all cylinders -or- at least better than his last game.
Wish Tanev was back, but better safe than sorry.
Would be nice if Matthews could pot a couple to get on a roll down the stretch here.

was not going to stay up to watch the whole game, but if you are here, Ill stay up my friend!

I'm hoping to have a thorough discussion about goalies and their poor lateral movement!

 

[Mr_Fun]

They've looked good in Vegas before, they've also looked like a collection of mindless scrubs. They'll have to bring their A game at any rate.

 

[Cleetus]

with this game being the double header on TNT stateside it will be a 10:30 pm ET start time lol

 

[9Iron]

Howdy Ho's !!

While this is a tough one we do usually come through in these games.

We will see which lEAST coasters have the cajones to stay up and support the team.

 

[93gilmour93]

Go Leafs Go

I'll try and stay up for this one but...

 

[Aashir]

looking to marner to have another big game, outside of that one boston game he has been very pedestrian, especially for his standards

i've all but given up expecting anything from matthews, and nylander. Nylander will get his 1G or 1A and continue on his ppg season, and matthews is such an enigma. Currently on a "heater" with 14 in 10 and yet it feels like he has been so disappointing

Have you considered a Phillipino nany? oh wait, I don't live in UAE anymore

Wouldn't mind Robertson either, Tavares and Nylander need someone with offensive skill to play with them.

 

[fahad203]

Who thinks this is the last time we see Robertsons' last game?

 

[thewave]

This is TheWave cup for me. Game 7. The tell all game. Contender or pretender.

Who thinks this is the last time we see Robertsons' last game?
