I think I read that Hakanpaa will be free from LTIR jail after this game, provided he has clearance from the medical team. I assume the same for Dewar if he was LTIR'd retroactively, as he was on IR originally until Woll's status forced a cap compliance move.

The timing of the Liljegren trade indicates that is likely the case (cap space available now). Roster slots will need to be opened up to activate them, so that's either more trades for picks/prospects or Myers/Benning/some forward are getting sent down.

It sure feels like Robertson is on the way out too.

I somewhat expect to see Benning on waivers today. He's essentially 9th on the depth chart (8th if we're being generous) and isn't a trade asset the team should be worried about losing for nothing.

K I was wondering about this, since Reaves has limited utility against the Kraken.

He could stare at them during warm up. Menacingly.

An extra break for the Leafs

Montour just posted a hat trick against the Habs in their last game.
