To continue in my series of extremely mild criticisms, I think it really sucks that Nylander isn't signed and that it represents a mistake on management's part.

You think it sucks that it represents a mistake, or you think it represents a mistake?

Both.

Not to get all doom and gloomy, but I am a little worried about how the Matthews and Kadri lines perform. I think Marleau is really going to have to be flying because Matthews shouldn't have to carry both him and Ennis. And that 3rd line is still such a weird combo to me.

Obviously, these are both short term problems: Nylander signing and eventually promoting either Johnsson or Kapanen to Kadri's line would immediately fix them... but I think those two things might slow us down right out of the gate. We'll see. We'll probably score like 6 PP/PK goals tonight so it won't even matter.

I would rather see the wingers flipped on the 3rd and 4th line. I would love to see Kadri centre Johnsson and Kapi

Alzner and Plekanec will both be healthy scratches lmao

Alzner has big consecutive games streak going. This team sucks. I don't like the scratch. I guess they're not willing to acknowledge they suck but that will come.

Anyway, glad we're not MTL.
 
This Leivo's big (maybe final?) chance.  Ennis outplayed him pretty handily in the pre-sea, let's see what they both can do.
 
There are 8 centers in the NHL who have scored 30+ goals in the last two years. The Leafs have three of them.
Go Leafs Go.

... also that PP1 8)
 
I've started a new job role since the end of last season so I need to be in the office earlier than I used to be so staying awake to ~3am then having to get up at ~6am seems silly and unsustainable now I'm old. I've also now got a 12 week old son so need to sleep as much as I can cos I no longer have regular sleeping patterns. So really I should be aware that watching games facing off at midnight is a bad idea and I should accept my time of watching north American sports live through the night is over and go to bed at a sensible time.

But obviously I'm not going to do any of that. Go Leafs go!

You're a strong strong man, Arn.
 
Probably more veering towards stupid but dammit one of these days it'll all be worthwhile and pay off

I was up at 5:30 this morning with our 12 month old, which 5 mins later woke up our 3 year old who then wanted breakfast, like, right now.  So I'm likely to fall asleep with a beer in my lap halfway through the second...so you and I, we're good...I've got your back.
