That's what it looks like based on practice, Babs could always change his mind of course.

Sosh played in his 3rd game during this conditioning stint last night, which should mark the expiration of the original loan. It sounds like that's been extended though as Keefe said he'd be getting into another game this weekend.
Sosh had 4 points and 10 shots on goal in those 3 games.

What is the stadium series and when does it happen, funky outfits. Where are the tie dye scarfs.RedLeaf said:

I'm looking at the top eight in the conference. The road is a tougher one for the non-divisional winners but once we show we're capable of defeating the Bolts and/or Bruins in a seven-game series, the road to the Final is there.

Bolts 79
Bruins 74
Leafs 71
Caps 70
Pens 66
Flyers 63

WSH has games on hand, but again, the Leafs have a relatively cushy schedule to close out the season, and a lot more games against their own division('s bottom feeders), i.e. not December. Many of these teams will be deliberately depleted due to their post-deadline transactions as well, which is either a good or bad thing for the Leafs, depending on whether or not they learn how to close out games, or get caught by spoiler teams playing for pride/livelihoods.
Leafs:
Games Left: 25
Home-Away: 14-11
Against ATL: 15
Against Atlantic teams above them (TBL+BOS): 3+1
Against Western conference: 2 (NSH, WPG)
The Leafs are at this stage now and haven't yet played to their potential. No guarantees that they get there, but I think we all know it's available to them.

He actually played 3 games in 3 days over the weekend. A conspiracy nut might suggest that they were trying to get him to tweak that groin. But all signs point to him being healthy and ready to go so the Leafs will now have a decision to make as somebody has to go to make room for him once he comes off the IR.

A couple of interesting notes on the Leafs finishing schedule, they play half of their games against the bottom 8 teams in the league and 28% of their schedule is against an Eichel-less Sabres team and a tire fire of a Panthers team.
Credit to @mirtle.
Catching one of the teams above us, who have significantly more difficult schedules, is not out of the question

We will find out in 40 minutes when the waiver list is released.
FWIW Shanny and the full management team took in practice from the stands, plenty of debate I am sure.
