Everyone is still playing one. I think Canada plays tomorrow.

Russia vs Canada

Looking fort to seeing our pick against Canada .
Really go test for him

 

[heatersthebest]

Flash from the past, "Peter Mueller". That was the kid who was matching Jonathan Toews shootout goal for shootout goal back in the WJHC was it not? What a complete bust he turned out to be

He had a great rookie season with 54 pts in 81 GP. Talent was there at least, commitment and defensive responsibility might not have been.

I think having to go up against USA, Sweden, and Czechia will do it for him too.

Knight, Wallstadt, and likely Parik... Not going to be easy. The Czech defense is not going to be all that great though.

Also, it's the Coyotes. That franchise has buried so much high end talent over the years. Wheeler, Mueller, Turris, Boedker, Gormley, Murphy, Domi, Perlini, Strome. All of these guys had very promising NHL careers and were absolutely stud junior players but the Coyotes managed to ruin their careers or ship them out of town just in the nick of time for them to find themselves reviving their careers elsewhere. Right now guys like Clayton Keller, Chychrun and Hayton are the new kids on the block who soon enough will be ruined or shipped out. I hope Dubas is smart enough to keep an eye out on their situation and willing to pounce on any opportunities.

Trash organization in the desert. Though, I'm glad we got Auston out of their existence but if they folded, good riddence.

I want to see if he shies away from physical contact.
Will it make him more determined.
We all know he has skill.

 

[LeafChief]

Hirvonen, Niemala and Kokkonen about to face off against the U.S. on TSN 5.

 

[LeafChief]

Assist for Niemala. He was manning the point on the PP.

 

[stickty111]

Niemela getting PP time and quickly gets an assist

 

[BoredBrandonPridham]

Niemela is #7. Anyone have #'s for Kokkonen and Hirvonen?

[LeafsOHLRangers98]

Some of these kids who have been playing might have a hige advantage out of the gate.

 

[LeafChief]

I've seen a lot of Niemala so far but not so much of Kokkonen.

 

[LeafChief]

And there's Kokkonen. Nice block on the PK.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Looks like Kokkonen will be playing a really key defensive role and Niemla a more offensive role and sheltered a bit more defensively. That was a seriously impressive blocked shot on the penalty kill.

 

[BoredBrandonPridham]

Niemela going to put the team on his shoulders and get it done.

 

[Morgs]

Niemela, Kokkonen, and Lambert are the only players on Finland that showed up

 

[Morgs]

Niemela POG for Finland

 

[stickty111]

So umm Kral's OZ% is 28.47 at ES. What are they doing to him? They are running him into the ground.

We're going to make you the Freddy Gauthier of defense... btw if you could also set up all of our offense that would be great too.

If the OHL season is cancelled can we expect Robertson on the Leafs, the taxi squad, or the Marlies?

OHL has no choice but to delay again with decision to scrap season coming fast | London Free Press

Personally I want him in the top 6 or top 9 over any of the other unknowns like Barabanov or re-treads like Vesey. Not only is his stock higher being a top prospect and very young with immense upside, but I think he could also score more goals than than his competition for a spot in the lineup

i think on the marlies. remember that Toronto only really needs a taxi squad for road trips, with marlies next door in Toronto they’ve always had a fairly large taxi squad at home. You can easily just pluck someone from the marlies for a home game.

Did the AHL announce whats happening? If there is no Canadian division in the AHL and the Marlies have to relocate it may not be as easy as usual.

Considering there is only 4 Canadian AHL teams, I'd think movement between the Leafs and Marlies would require a 2 week quarantine
