I think we are still better in that scenario.
I really don’t think the Habs are all that good.

No, he won't replace a better player. I mean he might be the better player for what he brings. If the coach wants to add the elements that he brings, he is the better player. Obviously, there is little danger that he will take a job.

He is an AHL player who you are dressing for responses? Thats a bad lineup decision.
It's not happening

We have like 20 better forwards in the organization right now... And that excludes using 7D looks.

Yes, we have some good depth this year. I disagree with twenty, but we have good depth. However, if they wanted to add what he brings, we don't have anyone one better. Otherwise, I would have wanted they guy who brings those elements, but is better.

The schedule's real dumb. It's not even like the Canadian arenas are being used for anything else.

We have to close out the Habs tomorrow and then just keep the foot on the accelerator in the next three Ottawa games coming up.
Sounds crazy to say but 6 out of 8 of those upcoming points and maybe 8 out of 8 points could be achievable if they just maintain their approach. Really want to see the Leafs be able to play a stretch of consistent, workmanlike games at a high level. I wouldn't be so arrogant to say "cruise control", but they are winnable games.

Yeah it would be quite nice to see them get a W again tomorrow.
I must point out however that it's been over 3 years since the Leafs won 5 games in a row

That was good for a laugh. Caught on video too. It had that high school phys-ed feel where one guy gets caught day dreaming.

Will be interesting to see if this team has the killer instinct to kick a team when they are down. I think back to the Leafs being up 3-2 against the Bs at home in the playoffs but couldn’t finish them off. Habs may be 3 or 7 points back by Sunday morning. That could easily be 13 points by the time they play again next Saturday night. Go buds

Manage the puck, don’t give habs rush chances, win comfortably. This is my game plan.
They got a long break the next time we play them, so it will be interesting to see a team watching video and practising to beat us while we play.

We are as fast as they are. Would like to see us destroy them relentlessly for 60 minutes. Trusting the top lines will do better tonight and help our odds of winning.

Third game in four nights for the Habs.
The Leafs should be winning this one but Montreal is going to come hard after the last loss. Just need to weather the initial burst and then their tired legs are going to give out in the 3rd period.

Fair point
If any regular season game can mimic the playoffs it is likely next saturdays ... be interesting to see how we counter a team that is hyper-focused on exposing our issues
