GDT: Leafs in Motown tonight: 7:00 pm.

Q: Why is it that they take Nylander out of the Tavares - PAC-line and move Marner in there when’s it’s working really well? Can’t Marner lead his own line with Knies or someone?

Did you see his lines scoring lately? No. Ok so that's why.

Amazing how Todd McLellan keeps getting jobs. He's like a cockroach that can't be killed.

Holmberg on the second line is outrageous.
I wish that they would move domi up or recall minten.

The third line with domi works offensively but not defensively.
So unless they’re cooking early, move Domi up to line 2.
Jmo.

Don't take Red Wings lightly, they always seem to force a back and forth, high scoring game and the Leafs need to play a heavy, North/South game (where have we heard that before?) with a shutdown mentality.

No more of this shiny hockey.

If Tanev is in the lineup this team is dramatically different in the backend. The "game time decision" worries me.

There are rumours Brad is looking a 3rd act of Schenn back in Toronto. I still have that signed puck my wife paid $10 approximately a decade ago so maybe he can come back and lift a puck so I can keep it and brag about how I knew he would do it!

2+ goal win pls

Wow, does this team lack depth.

30 games in their 2nd. line center has 6 points.

No one is breaking down the door in the minors.

Lack center depth. Not depth. Pretty sure depth has been tested everywhere else at this point

Well, yes they are Top 10 in the league.

That's where they are today, fallen off from a couple years ago.

This just might be who they are today, a Top 10 team.

We're a point out of division lead. Who cares about league standing or the regular season for that matter?

 

[Darcy Tucker]

Agreed. I would much rather have Minten in the top 6 than Holmberg.

So is Minten going to get called back up or what? Matthews can retroactively go on IR and Hakanpaa can retroactively go on LTIR to clear the cap and roster space.

I don't like seeing Holmberg at 2C.

AM needs to go on LTIR to free up his money, get surgery and the timeline to return is whenever game 1 of the playoffs occurs.

Maybe at this point surgery takes him into the summer?

Maybe, but my hope is surgery is only 3 or 4 months of recovery which takes us to the playoffs. If he needed that kind of serious surgery, maybe he should have just done it? I am confused by this entire situation. What kind of doctors does this team have?

Yep and acquire some depth and ride in with 34 game 1 sounds like a plan

Possibly because surgery might have sidelined him for many months and they wanted to try rest/alternative methods in hopes they could avoid any invasive surgery.

That's my guess at least.

Is Reaves playing, and will he do his job. He has done NOTHING for 2 months. By all accounts his selection of music has been bad...he has become a swifty
Berube has also fallen in love with Kampf...the biggest 4th line center in nhl, and the weakest and softest.

If you're listening to Zoomer music, make it Sabrina Carpenter...

Come at me.

I liked watching this team when Minten and Grebyenkin were in the line up. A lot of piss and vinegar there.
