Another 'who cares' pre-season game. Our Leafs play like they don't care, while the Habs take the game seriously and try to win the game.
Being win less in pre-season means nothing. It's not important to set a precedence of a winning culture before the games count for real. One just needs to flick on that competitive switch once the games count for real, especially when the playoffs start for real.
Take this game off Auston, there is no reason to get yourself into game shape for the regular season and beyond.
This will be our defence game 1, so will be interesting to see how they play as a unit.
Especially going to watch who Liljegren plays with and how he plays. I feel like he's a lowkey important player for us and if he plays well, the depth and handedness of the group should be okay.
They're just retrofitting his skates with jatos.I agree to an extent, but something doesn't seem right. Hope it's nothing.
Well almost all former ... Cowan is still a Knight.Huge opportunity to take a step forward this camp for Cowan.

Cowan needs to really show up tonightCowan in again. Greb not. Lorentz also makes his debut.
This is the NHL squad minus the injuries, Woll and Knies.
Also means that finishing 1st overall means shit towards winning a Stanley Cup.Yes it is another who cares game.
Pre season doesn't mean shit
The Rangers went something like 1-5 in pre season last year and if memory serves they went on to finish 1st overall.
100% proof pre season doesn't mean shit
Cowan needs to really show up tonight

Bizarre that Niemela hasn’t gotten into a pre-season game.
Toronto dressing it's full lineup tonight, I think there's some serious debate internally on whether Cowan should be on the roster for the year. Jankrok & Matthews & Knies are missing from the lineup only, but they would replace Lorentz & Cowan & Holmberg.
I'm assuming Cowan would be fighting for his spot against Holmberg and Reaves (I don't think he gets into the lineup everygame), if Toronto is serious about keeping Nylander at center.
Knies - Matthews - Marner
Domi - Nylander - Jankrok
McMann - Tavares - Robertson
Pacorietty - Kampf - Cowan/Holmberg/Reaves
He weighed in at 181 and 6’ tall. One pound heavier than god himself.He's 140 lbs and was never going to make it.
Certainly hope with 3 games left after today, he plays at least 2 of them. He could be hurt but they haven't said anything and he is practicing so he's probably fine. After a standout rookie tournament, you'd think they would play their best D prospect and see where he's at. While we had watch Mattinen mess up frequently instead.Bizarre that Niemela hasn’t gotten into a pre-season game.
We'll probably take an L if that's the case.You guys are getting the Laval Rockets tonight..

Id love to find a way to get Dvorak to complete the trio.I'm glad that Marner and Domi are playing together tonight. They looked good in limited time last year, and of course played together in junior.
