The Leafs, Sens, and Habs will all have tributes prior to the game:

To honor the brave soldiers who lost their lives this past week in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu and Ottawa, and to show appreciation for the men and women whose selfless actions stopped the attackers and aided the victims, the Ottawa Senators, Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs will stage a coordinated tribute Saturday immediately preceding the 7 p.m. ET puck drops at their respective arenas.

The show of solidarity, to be staged simultaneously by the three Canadian teams hosting 7 p.m. ET games at Canadian Tire Centre in Kanata, Ontario, Bell Centre in Montreal and Air Canada Centre in Toronto, will be broadcast live on CBC, Sportsnet ONE, City, and TVA Sports in Canada and on NHL Network in the United States.

Well done gentlemen. It's the dawn of a new Doris Day!

Chara or no Chara, Leafs / Bruins games are always entertaining to watch and a good barometer for the Leafs.

 

[Chev-boyar-sky]

All right, need some fantasy help for tonight. Di I go with Bozak or Brock Nelson?

I'm leaning towards Bozak.

 

[Peter D.]

Kessel hat trick against his former team in a 4-1 Leafs win.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Bernier starts.

 

[Chev-boyar-sky]

Kind of amazing that these guys had Seguin. A look through their lineup and you'd be hard pressed to find a combo of players you'd want in return for him.

Put another way, they don't have a single player that's anywhere near as dangerous as Seguin. What a bizarre move.

 

[L K]

Bernier starts.

Hard to fault that decision after the two games he just played but I fear that we are heading back into that "Reimer plays well so let's sit him for two weeks and expect him to stand on his head when he plays otherwise he sucks" routine.

 

[Highlander]

Seguin had a rep as a party animal?but so did Micky Mantle and he had a so so career 
Not a great move on their part.  My son says he would rather have Seguin than Kessel, a point of contention.

Interesting stat according to Hope_Smoke:

Optimistic thing is, in the 28 times Leafs have been on PK in 14-15 they've allowed only 26 SA. Last year they allowed 51 in 27 chances.

Well, still an improvement I guess.

Is it confirmed we're going with 7D again?  Good old Randy "why have a 4th line?" Carlyle.
