Line-up Notes

BOS
?Expect back-up Niklas Svedberg (2-2, 1.67, .940) for Boston as Rask will probably start against Montreal on Thursday
?No David Krejci as he will miss Boston's next two games with an undisclosed injury

TOR
?No starter confirmation until the morning skate, but I'm guessing Reimer goes based on how the weekend went
?Winnik will likely return to the line-up and play on the 2nd line
?Defence pairings were switched a bit at practice as Gardiner skated with Polak instead of Robidas

whats with the 8pm start?

 

[ZBBM]

A chance to redeem themselves.  The first game was the low point in the season so far.  Would love to see Kessel make a statement by leading the way.

My guess is something to do with NBC.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Paul Hendrick noted that this will be the 4th straight game the Leafs have faced the oppositions backup goalie.

 

[Highlander]

Thats cause no one wants their lead goalie shell shocked?.YES! 8)

Hopefully the Leafs will at least try to play this time. Last one against the bruins they looked like a beer league team.

I just want them to play a full 60 mins. And keep the nets clear. Go Leafs Go.

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Winnik confirms he'll play.

Winnik confirms he'll play.

And Bernier starts.

Damn it!

Battle of the backups!

LOL

that not going to start anything!

 

[Strangelove]

Not that it'll happen, but I'd like to see Panik given a longer look on the second line rather than Winnik. Winnik's had a couple half decent games but more often than not he's been ineffective offensively and he seems not to have a great sense of his linemates. He doesn't make himself a great target for passes at either end of the ice and has an annoying tendency to go offside for no real reason. Panik has at least shown that he has a decent ability to put himself in the rights spots in the offensive end.

I would settle for 40 minutes of really good play if it involves the first 5 minutes too.

 

[Highlander]

Ya Panik has been a pleasant surprise and agree that he should stay up there and see what he brings to the Bruins. Winnick is a great additon but let him move comfortably back into the line up after a 2 game absence.
And I have no problem with Bernier either.

Gonna need the full 60 against the B's.

Reports now say that Rask is starting, not Svedberg.

Boston changing their tactics once they realized that we were starting our back-up.

Whoa watch out we have some master mind games going on from Boston.
