Medical staff is definite on our team.

I bet it's just Dubas wearing two pairs of glasses.

A few less penalties and shots against would be nice. Nylander is due.

Go Leafs Go!

One series ends tonight, one goes to game 7.  Let's be on the game 7 one.

Babs had these lines for Game 5's morning skate as well but swapped Plekanec and Kadri prior to the game.

In a do or die game though, I think he'll stick with the shutdown centre he's trusted for the past 2 seasons.

With Leafs having last change, it be interesting to see which way he goes against the Bergeron line.  Without a doubt it will be Marleau-Marner on the wings.  At Center, I wonder if he chooses the centerman based on which zone or other situational choices?

If either of them injured himself doing stuff like this I would be despondent and maybe apoplectic.

That we can even have this discussion about which matchup centre to use is why I was pretty pleased about the Plekanec trade.

 

[Kaberle15]

and now that Plekanec's goatee power is growing back on him, it is real nice to have 2 Centers that can go head to head with Bergeron's line.

Both games that the Leafs won, that line was off the scoreboard...

Nice to see the Docs also on the fan side!

Go Leafs Go!!! Lets take this to 7!

There was some talk that Donato was going to replace Heinen (who has 0 points in 5 games), but this probably works out to be a plus for us.

Dear Master Nylander,

The pleasure of your company is requested this evening.

Wouldn't be a bad time for Matthews to show a little more intensity as well

Hopefully the penalty disparity BS from last game doesn't repeat itself and they actually get to play after the first period.

 

[Stronger Than All]

I'm not really feeling this game,  but I wasn't feeling the last game either. 

 

[OldTimeHockey]

Hopefully they show up ready to go. They need to pot the first goal.
