Leafs @ Devils - Apr. 5th, 7:00pm - TSN4, Fan 590

Willy with the 360 no scope

Right into the salary cap.

Look at that JvR joining PP2 ostensibly for the full 2 min.

We've talked about Damon Severson before as a potential trade target. He's been a healthy scratch for 2 games in a row before tonight, which is of course pretty telling since the Devils are fighting for their playoff lives still. I wonder if there's a Severson-for-Zaitsev swap to be had in the offseason.

I was suggesting a JvR for Severson trade before the deadline, but I like your suggestion now that JvR will walk.

There's always the chance of selling the "early rights to talk to JVR" once the playoffs are done. Maybe a deal can be worked out.

Yeah, but I doubt his rights will be traded at all, let alone worth enough to get Severson.

Johnsson would have scored that.

The play dies every time Leo touches the puck, which means the fourth line is perpetually stuck in their own end.

Rest of the team looks pretty good though. They look faster after a few days rest, which bodes well for the playoffs.
 
Missed the Nylander goal but really interesting that they had JVR out there with that unit. Are they finally going to play him more on the PP?

Probably won't be enough to pick up a useful player like Severson, no, but it wouldn't surprise me if the Leafs do trade JvR's rights. When the draft rolls around, they'll have a pretty good idea of whether or not they'll be able to sign him at a number they're comfortable with before July 1.

Next time around, PP1 came over the boards first and Komarov was on PP2 when they switched. So I?d say it?s a situational adjustment.
 
Carrick has spent most of this game turning the puck back North from the neutral zone, stuffing it at the OZ blueline or the redline on very aggressive gap ups.
 
This game feels like the last few exhibition games of the year where you really don't care about the result but you just wanna see how the team is preparing for the real season.
