[Leaf Rocket]

I for one, am very happy that Holl is riding the pine.

But man...what days have some for this guy...We couldn't get him off any pairing to, an AHLer has earned more right for a spot in the D-pairings.

I imagine Holl will play if Dermott can't go.

It’s November, there are no game time decisions unless you've been ill.

I haven't watched alot of Rubins. What are his strengths besides size? Can he skate, make a good first pass, fight for pucks on the boards and in front of the net? I was impressed with Kral in preseason, I think he should be given a look-see when he's ready.

Top 25 Under 25: The Case for Kristians Rubins

Kristians Rubins is the Leafs 18th ranked prospect

I'm guessing that Rubins needs a new number? What number would he wear with the Leafs, given he has #44 with Marlies.

I am actually VERY excited for Liljegren, regardless of outcome I hope we put up a good fight and I hope he does well.

I just have a bad gut feeling we might cry uncle due to vasilesky.

Tampa’s lost their entire 3rd line, which was probably the best 3rd line in hockey, but yeah you’re right Vasilevsky (and Hedman too) are two X-factors that can dominate and win a game on their own.

Hopefully they can pepper Vasi enough that a few squeak by and we limit their chances on the PP where they are still good, even without Kucharov

Bourne is gonna have an aneurysm that his boy Holl is on the trade block

 

[PromisedLand]

What? Trading the guy when his value is low? ohhh... it kyper... nevermind lol

P.S. Babcock is punching in air somewhere laughing his ass off

Bourne is gonna have an aneurysm that his boy Holl is on the trade block

Bourne is fully aware of who and what Kypreos is.

 

[Griffin76]

Bourne is gonna have an aneurysm that his boy Holl is on the trade block

My guess is he'll play it like

- looks like management is starting to listen to this delusional fan base

- do these guys not remember how Holl single handedly shut down McDavid and the Oilers?

- they're taking a step backward by looking to move a proven top 4 top shut down pair RHD for a guy that will top out as a #6 and is only valued because of his pre draft ranking.

And probably a whole lot more crap too. Lol

Should call up Seattle and see if they wanna swap Jared McCann for Holl.

 

[Racer88]

Sorry, have to ask.

What defines a net front opportunity and how does it differ from an xGF or a HD scoring chance?

Nooooooooooo don’t go down that road…….run

Ya no kidding eh

 

[HogTown06]

Excited for tonight's game, even knowing it may turn ugly.

Go Leafs Go!!!
