Kasper should make this team.
All of the kids are gonna get sent down until they learn to capitalize on their chances. Nate isn't anticipating passes, Kasper/Mazur are trying to beat the goalie down low. As much as I love their energy, they would be better off learning to score in the AHL.

I don't see any reason why any of those 3 can't be mid to late season callups once they figure it out. Their PK is pretty good, and they'd be replacing Motte/Fischer/Joey.

Dudeeeee, this was our maxed out NHL roster against a Pens team with maybe one NHL regular!
It doesn’t matter… all preseason is for them to get there legs under them… I know your smart

Didn’t our AHL team beat the leafs last year in the preseason? I guess Toronto sucked

If you couldn't notice, the big guns were clearly giving 70-80% today. Even Larkin was sloppy a lot at the start and looking off a couple high danger slot chances

Why would what is essentially the opening night roster minus a few guys give a damn about playing an AHL team and risk any sort of injury before meaningful NHL games are played?

Sigh. This sounds like extreme coping. Yes we barely tried and that’s obviously the only reason we lost.

Toronto’s going to be worse than Montreal this season, after all they lost to them in preseason.

Anyways; Kasper should be getting looks with legit talent in coming games.
