I'm guessing we see:

Knies-Domi-Marner
McMann-Tavares-Nylander
Holmberg-Dewar-Robertson
Lorentz-Kampf-Reaves

 

[LeafalCrusader]

So probably

Knies Domi Marner
McMann Tavares Nylander
Dewar Holmberg Robertson
Lorentz Kampf Reaves

Maybe swap Lorentz with Dewar.

That's one fugly bottom six.

Knies-Domi-Marner
McMann-Tavares-Nylander
Holmberg-Dewar-Robertson
Lorentz-Kampf-Reaves

It's a crime that Steeves isn't getting a look. That bottom six is a total black hole, especially without McMann.

It’s not gong to look any better with steeves

At this point in the season, I'd rather he not plat unless he's 100% or as close to 100% as possible

There was a time when people said the same thing about McMann. He's not going to be a savior but he's earned a shot and at this point has nothing left to prove in the AHL. Holmberg and Reaves (and hell Robertson too) haven't done anything to show that they unquestionably deserve a spot themselves.

The November Streak will continue here.

This is the first Sens/Leafs game since the Ridley Grieg-Morgan Rielly incident.

Is there gonna be bad blood there or has that ship sailed? I personally do not care anymore lmao

Trends say that once again Leafs will have to be carried by the top 4 forwards + Knies into the playoffs and in the playoffs. Doesn’t look like they will get much scoring from the bottom of the lineup. Domi 0 goals, 6 assists all season. Kampf 0 goals. Reaves 0 goals. Roberston 1 goal, 1 point all season so far. McMann started hot cooled off significantly since then. Patches, not sure we can rely on him for anything at this point as he is too injury prone.

At least ot seems they are better suited to win a 2-1 or 3-2 game.

Nice to have a little more firepower though.

 

[BallardEra]

Wonder if Matthews misses both games in a row and returns against the Oilers on Saturday.

Would be nice to get more offence from Domi, Robertson, and McMann. If they could just chip in a little bit more. I mean Domi has no points while playing with Marner since AM was out. That's concerning.

Marner line would have to be scoring at 5 on 5 for domi having zero points on that line to be concerning

Well, they are not scoring which is concerning for Domi that he can not produce with good players. He has to pick it up

 

[MilkofthePoppy]

I hope the Leafs remember what happened last time they played these pricks.

Unfortunately I think this was always gonna be a 'bridge' year where they're pretty much just waiting out Tavares' contract and other guys coming off the books to retool the forwards properly. Hopefully someone from the prospect pool can make a jump as well.... It is disappointing that Tre wasn't able to muster up much for the forwards besides Patches on a one year deal.

Yeah that bottom-6 production is just flat out atrocious. Where the hell do you even begin to fix that with how many players just flat our aren't scoring.

 

[kevsh]

Just wait until game 7 in round one and Auston/Mitch/Willie do their usual thing and combine for 0 goals, we're going to rely on one or more of Kampf, Holmberg, Lorentz, Reaves & Dewar to step up and deliver?

The good news is I'm pretty sure Treliving is seeing the exact same thing and will make some moves to shore up that bottom 6, sooner rather than later I hope.

 

[arso40]

Why isn’t it concerning the other way?

Really? I thought they had played again since then? I’m getting old lol

 

[Smif]

Domi has 1 assist in the last 10 games. It's clear which one of our better forward needs to step up riggt now.

One is paraded around by us like he’s the player that makes everyone way better so why isn’t it not a Mitch issue all his assist came on Nylander goals so I think it’s a 2 way street

We're not getting past round 1 if they dont add some scoring to that bottom 6. They cant even score in November. God forbid May and beyond...

Need more offense ASAP
