Sigh.

@jonasTSN1050

Looks like Ashton is actually the scratch with Ranger remaining as the 7th defenceman.

 

[freer]

Clarkson out!!!! Oh my

Well the Leafs record is way better without him.

They are better with not Ranger in the line up but he is there

 

[Zee]

Oh well he's back.

 

[gunnar36]

Clarkson out!!!! Oh my

Now just give Ashton his minutes and we will a far more effective player at a fraction of the cap space.

 

[ZBBM]

Hey, there's a great idea ... scratch Clarkson! 

 

[bustaheims]

So, Ashton called up for press box duty? Yeah, that sounds about right.

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

So close to having a lineup where you could play the 4th line more than 5:00.....and he dresses 7 D instead.

I would love to see an Ashton-McClement-Bodie 4th line.  You  could easily give those guys 10-15 minutes.

 

[ZBBM]

"Don't differ to the new guy"?

Hilarious.

Because, you know, that strategy has worked so well for them of late.

Our D plays so well you just have to find a way to get more of them into the lineup.

...and the 'Clarkson fall down' drinking game begins again...

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

I think every player, coach, GM, scout and ref in the league can knock Clarkson over.

Anyone else having picture problems? Very, very bright screen here.

It's so cool that we have two one-time 30 goal scorers who will never, ever get within a country mile of doing it again.

That in and of itself is not a problem.

Well, yes it is actually.  But "intangibles"!

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Lupul seems...lethargic to me this season.  Maybe it was missing so much time last season that let him have so much energy when he returned, but he just seems to have no energy.

 

[Sudafederov]

Clarkson, head down, trying to plow into the offensive zone 1 on 4, sounds about right.
