As he nurses injury, Pacioretty likes what he sees from Maple LeafsInteresting on PAC, yesterday he said he was "a ways away".
Pacioretty is not eligible to come off long-term injured reserve until Saturday when the Leafs visit the Pittsburgh Penguins.
“Some of it’s not in my control, but I feel really good,” Pacioretty said.
“My step today was the first practice with the team. This time of year, those don’t come too often and took advantage of that. I’m sure we’ll figure out the next step.”
From "day to day" to "could be an option for next week"@markhmasters
Bobby McMann (lower body) is back on the ice today Craig Berube: "Hopefully if he gets skating here & he feels good, he could be an option for next week, but we'll see"

I like the fact that they are high on Minten. Leafs investment in a competent scouting is paying dividends. Considering how much draft currency the Leafs spent to try and get this team over the hump.
Now I don't have the time or inclination to follow their junior players but they seem to have solid depth, be it Minten, Gren, Cowen etc. I will conduct my assessment once they are in the big show.
They are going to have to make some difficult decisions with this team as the roster is crowded. A good problem to have as injuries occur.
Zero news about Kampf is a little weird. Seems like he's out for awhile.
Day to day means a month apparently
While they can play, perhaps when the medical staff clear them, they're only 80%? Maybe Berube is giving the players extra time to be healed as opposed to years past where we might have rushed them back?From "day to day" to "could be an option for next week"
Been skating, not eligible until 14th for return. Probably start hearing more in the next week.
