Preseason: sens @ Leafs - Sept. 23rd, 7:00pm - TSN4, TSN 1050

First preseason game at home. Still no line-ups announced but since the team goes back on the road for their Thursday game expect a lot more NHLers in the line-up for this one. Maybe even the debut of the new look top line with Maccelli.

Likely something like this

Home team usually ices more regulars for their fans, but vets tend to hold back on preseason to preserve their health and prioritize timing, while bubble players and prospects are going to go hard to impress the brass.

Cowan and Robertson might be playing every preseason game. Might as well do the same for Danford.

That feels almost too NHL-heavy for game 2 of the preseason. Somewhat notable that Haymes has jumped into that 3C spot with Roy out instead of the older and more experienced Quillan.

I think we'll have a good mix of hungry players: Maccelli, Haymes, Robertson, Cowan, McMann (hopefully), Danford, both goalies

Home game, it's nice to give the crowd some NHLer's. Play the farm team on the road.

That was a nifty Maccelli pass that Matthews nearly tapped in

Knies probably out of the game from that head contact (precautionary)

Edit: more of a glove. He’s fine.
