Line-up Notes

?With Rinne hurt expect some goalie who nobody has never heard of before to start​

?I'm guessing Reimer starts, but Bernier might get the nod again with his stats against Nashville
?Kadri will return from his suspension and he practiced on the top line Wednesday
?Both Bozak and Fraser wouldn't rule themselves out for this game but don't seem likely to play just yet
?McLaren's scratched. MCLAREN'S SCRATCHED!

Given that we pulled one out of our bums last time being outshot, again Nashville will remember we shut them out.

Mazanec?  Isn't that an ancient Incan deity?

Mazanec?  Isn't that an ancient Incan deity?

I thought he was the keyboard player for The Doors.....and that he was dead

 

[Champ Kind]

Wow, Dion a +11.  Ireelevant or not, that's pretty impressive considering who he plays against.

Couple of observations on the Preds down the middle: 1) Makes the Leafs' centremen look pretty darn good and, 2) So glad the LEafs did not sign Paul Gausted a few years ago

Carlton, great job as usual, thank you.

 

[skippy]

Haven't heard Kyle mclarens name in a while

 

[Rick C.]

Carter Ashton returned to Marlies

markhmasters: Bernier in home net at skate; set to start tonight; 8-1, .941 sv career v Preds

jonasTSN1050: Bozak confirmed out tonight. Says he's not ready. Fraser out too.

 

[bustaheims]

jonasTSN1050: Even with Kadri back, Leafs can keep Smith, Smithson and Holland all in the lineup tonight. Smithson lined up as 4th line wing at practice.

 

[Redleaf]

When Fraser's ready, I'd really like to see these pairings on D......

Gunnar-Phaneuf
Gardiner-Franson
Reilly-Fraser

 

[nutman]

Maybe we sit Orr as well, and ice four lines that can score.

It's like you forget who the team's coach is.

Also, even with someone other than Orr on the 4th line, there's not much offence there.

Oops! thanks for the reminder. like Carlyle would ever sit Orr.  :-X

Beat the Perds!1!!

 

[BlueWhiteBlood]

Should be a pretty decent line-up for us tonight. Go Leafs Go!

Well to be fair, Orr is paying Carlyle's mortgage.

Finally, some common sense.  If Smithson can win a single draw he will have already contributed more than MacLaren.

Wow, Dion a +11.  Ireelevant or not, that's pretty impressive considering who he plays against.

BUT Bud Light gives out an award for +/- so how can it be irrelevant?!?!?!?!?!1

Not the be-all end-all stat, but a +11 for a guy who has been a minus player every other year he's been here and has taken flak for that record in the past, this is a big shift to the positive.  Also, considering the competition he faces each night it's pretty freaking good.
