Canucks @ Leafs - Jan. 6th, 7:00pm - CBC, TSN 1050

Dermott getting right into the lineup is interesting. I guess if you're going to drop him in, the Canucks are a good team to do it against.

I have to say that while Borgmann does occasionally make some questionable decisions with the puck in his own end, overall I like what I see from him more than Carrick or the recently departed (let's shoot the puck right at the referee) Marincin. Maybe he just needs to sit and watch for a game or two. Or maybe Dermott will turn out to be better, though that seems unlikely based on everything I've read about him.

The main point here is that our defense is only skin deep. So it's time to call in a dermottologist.

 

[Frank E]

They seem to be taking a look at some guys, probably preparing for trade deadline decisions.

Advanced statties will no doubt strike me down, but he seems like he's played OK recently.  Within his limitations, of course.

Sure, but, even with that, he's the 7th best healthy defenceman on the roster.

Yes, sir.  Right away, sir.

Seriously, that pun was a travisty

I loved it ZBBM...then again I love puns and punsters, doggies and Munsters.

Unless the Dermott :

 

[freer]

I just want to see the Leafs destroy the Canucks, I live in BC and I totally hate them.
Go Leafs Go.

I clasp your hand in friendship.

Hughson will be insufferable as we're playing his favourite team this evening. Going to the sync up tsn 1050 and the Bowen call with Nic Cage's youtube stream

Listening to hughson?s boner for the Canucks is just painful

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Get ready.

Polak spinning back deep into the zone for "reasons" then Boeser grabs Matthews (non-call) to cause a turnover.

Martin is taking runs at Tanev tonight.

 

[L K]

Maybe the Leafs would have better starts if Babcock wasn't causing 10 second line changes because he insists on reacting to the opposition lineup with his line matching?  It has to be hard to get into the flow when you are jumping off the ice every time the opposition changes lines.

 

[herman]

Martin is taking runs at Tanev tonight.

Rielly seals the deal

Edit: Tanev should be okay by the end of the period.
Are they trying to drop his trade value?

 

[herman]

Markstrom?s bucket is pretty clever.
