Game Notes

PHI
?Brian Elliott (4-2-0, 3.33 GAA, .876 Sv%) will likely start for the Flyers
?Philly's big guns are off to good starts this season: Voracek has 14 points, Couturier and Ghostbear have 12 each, Giroux 11, and Simmonds 9
?Nolan Patrick started his career off with 1 goal and 2 assists in his first 9 games. He missed his last game with what might be a concussion

TOR
?Andersen (6-3-0, 3.54 GAA, .893 Sv%) will likely start for the Leafs
?JVR missed another practice yesterday, and it seems possible he might miss a game too. In that case Leivo will draw in while Marleau plays on the Bozak line and Brown with Kadri

?Nolan Patrick - Head - Questionable Saturday ?Colin McDonald - Lower Body - Injured Reserve ?Andrew MacDonald - Lower Body - Injured Reserve​

?Nathan Horton - Back - Out indefinitely ?Joffrey Lupul - Actually Injured - Out indefinitely ?James van Riemsdyk - Leg - Questionable Saturday​

Fehr has been sent to the Marlies and Kapanen has been recalled.

 

[AvroArrow]

If kapanen goes in the lineup ahead of Leivo, then just waive the guy so he can have a chance at a career somewhere.

 

[Highlander]

Ya we have to Unless the Leivo

 

[herman]

Dream scenario: Martin is still nicked up for the upper body ailment that pulled him from most of the back half of the last game.

Hyman - Matthews - Nylander
Komarov - Kadri - Brown
Marleau - Bozak - Marner
Leivo - Moore - Kapanen

And then following the game, the Leafs announce a trade of JvR for Travis Sanheim and a 1st, both of whom are immediately parlayed with Bozak for Duchene with 2M retained by the Avs, and maybe throw in Valiev, which fulfills 3.5 of the 4 requirements Sakic has been asking for: ?a first-rounder, quality young defenseman, proven NHLer and top prospect?.

 

[Andy007]

If the Leafs somehow managed to pry Sanheim out of Philly for JVR (a 1st on top of Sanheim? JFJ isn't working in Philly you know ) he would be firmly planted in my Leaf defense plans. Duchene isn't worth it imo, not with Marner/Nylander being viable centre options and the depth of offensive prospects on the farm.

Reilly  Sanheim
Gardiner  Liljegren
Zaitsev  Dermott
      Neilson

Yeow!!!

It's not that I disagree, Andy, it's just that when you decide to have your third pair play their wrong side just for fun, I switch off a bit when it comes to the rest of your post.

You've been here forever and still haven't figured out the quote function?

 

[herman]

The truth is, I don?t even want Duchene. I just want to get rid of JvR and Bozak productively.

Maybe you can show me how to post a gif of you kissing my ass?

....Wut?

To PHI: JvR
To TOR: Sanheim, 2018 1st

To COL: Bozak, Sanheim, Valiev, 2018 1st (Phi but maybe they?ll take ours)
To TOR: Duchene (2M retained)

I don't know offhand what hand each guy is, I'm just putting them in nice symmetrical pairings for aesthetic purposes.

Short answer, I'm just very lazy

I get the first transaction, but I don't think the second one makes much sense from the Leafs' perspective.

Sorry about the formatting, need to learn how to embed a tweet more better.

This should make Leafs nation happy.

There's not enough bandwidth on the internet to be able to handle the sheer size of even a photo of your gargantuan ass.

If you need footage of me kissing some ass though, ask your wife to show you some of the video we filmed while you were at the dealership.

 

[cujo4ever]

Also, GO LEAFS GO!

I hate to say this, but I think I agree with Frank. I feel dirty.

How about, on the heels of the JvR deal, Bozak, Valiev and a 3rd to Vegas for Shipachyov at 50% retained?

 

[Kaberle15]

Nice! 

Go Leafs Go!!!

That?s a lot better
