Good question. Was a surprise to me.

I’ve always thought Smith wasn’t at his best on the right as he has a hard time with the breakout so they may have seen something like that in practice. And since Luke has played the right side before felt it was the best way to go?



And there’s always a chance it’s this too lol

Yea, I just don't get why they didn't do that in preseason then...

I'm calling Kevin Bahl to be our breakout player this year. I'm a Bahliever. He's gonna be like Jacob Trouba but actually good, not hysterically overpaid and not a douchebag.

He might end up being that in a few years....hopefully he buys in and stays for cheap.

You didn’t have to include “upskirting”, we all knew that about you after you began with “leafs fan”.

Bahl will drop all pretenses of not being a very good player.
He definitely had some growing pains early on and many here were ready to give up on him. But I personally kept thinking that IF he ever puts it together, a dman with his size is always such a unique player that its worth to give him every chance to work it out and see if he becomes a player.

Just to get it out of the way……:and I saw it coming in the preseason, just in case it didn’t happen, but there was no reason to bitch about it until it happened, but Bastian is the BEST 4th liner we have? Why is he in healthy scratch territory now? Because he came to camp not healthy?

And why even play Smith over Miller, so now we have two left D on the same pair, when we could have played Miller with Luke and had a righty with Luke……..

It’s a damn good thing Mackenzie Blackwood isn’t still here for them to start the first game of the year again.
I think Bas is still coming back from injury, no big whoop.
