Is Boucher still running the powerplay? If so why the f*** is he still here?

The time Leafs PP, IMO. was really clicking is when they took Tavares off of the 1st unit

Matthews-Marner-Nylander-Bertuzzi-Liljegren was buzzing

if they scored then great, if not then the 2nd unit would go out and keep the puck in their end with Tavares winning the face-offs.

Not a lot of games left to get PP in order. One can only hope now!!!!!!
 
Why is it ALWAYS the goalies fault with you

Because I'm not willing to kiss his ass like A LOT of people here are.

He was unplayable for MONTHS.

He's been so bad that he doesn't nor deserve to be cut ANY slack.

He himself has single handily pissed away AT LEAST 12 points.
 
I don't want to see NR come out the way he's flying right now. He just seems like someone who will be able to score in tight checking playoff games.

He makes the most of his opportunities. The team is flawed defensively with or without him, may as well play the ones who can score.
 
More NHL games under his belt and more seasoned. More goals too. More grit. Not to mention PK ability is lethal

He's a playoff player over Holmberg

Lol he has 19 goals in 184 games and a minus player every single season. Holmberg is flat out better.

Lol he has 19 goals in 184 games and a minus player every single season. Holmberg is flat out better.

PK looks much improved. Not sure I would attribute that to Dewar... but I guess he is helping. Kampf has picked his game up quite a but as well. Not having Brodie for those few games probably didn't hurt either.

Totally agree in missing 44 and 37!

I don't know where Marner will be playing when he comes back, but I sure as hell hope it is not with Matthews. I would not change that 1st line. But having him back should help overall; Tavares is struggling, maybe Mitch can help there.
It would be really hard to break up the Matthews line right now.

I don't know what Keefe does. He is difficult to read.

I like Marner with Tavares and McMann, but Willy doesn't really deserve 3rd line mins.

Holmberg, Willy and ???

I like the idea of Nylander ecploiting 3rd lines, but he has had such a good season that it seems crazy to cut his ice time.

We know Keefe will run Matthews and Marner over 20 mins, so that wpuld leave very little for Willy's line if they play the 4th 8-10

Everytime Brodie is on the ice and he gets pressured it makes me super nervous. The guy does not handle forechecking well at all.
Please Sheldon don't bench Benoit over Brodie for the playoffs, I beg you.
Benoit and McCabe have clearly been our best Dmen this year
