Philthy!

Percy has great passing and hockey sense, he doesn't have NHL foot speed yet though.

Anyone have a stream that doesn't feature scary pop-ups?

So 4th line has barely played. In a meaningless game.

RC everybody. He can change.

Booth will not return - lower body injury.

Franson went into the end boards hard, had to be helped off the ice.

Looks like it could be serious. Sucks for him, but, silver lining is that it could mean some of the young D get a chance to prove themselves when the games count.

I don't get why the defensemen are so often set up on their strong sides on the powerplay. Franson's got a great snap-shot from that side, but otherwise they completely take away one-timer opportunities.

They had the same issue last season. I don't get it either.

Systemic changes obviously take time to set in but so far I'm seeing an awful lot of the same strategy as last year.  I'm not a big fan of believing that 50 players in camp all ignore Carlyle and just do their own thing.

I think the key is time, if these guys really are changing up their system somewhat it'll go for all the players and it probably won't happen overnight, that goes for the AHL guys too, if we believe they were playing the same system as Spott has said and the Leafs have claimed for a while. They're sorting out the wheat and chaff while implementing new strategies too after all.
