?My goaltending guess is that we see Bernier on Friday so Reimer can play in the first meeting against Boston since the playoff loss
?Fraser will return to the line-up after missing about a month and will likely take Rielly's spot on the blueline
?Smithson will make his Leafs debut on the 4th line
?JVR will play his first NHL game at the centre ice position

Two things I want to see happen.

1. The leafs win tomorrow
2. The Devils finish bottom 5 AND win the draft lottery.

Oh yeah - I remember hockey!!!

 

[harps64]

Good job CTB!

 

[freer]

I hope the guys come out on fire to make up for that awful crap last Saturday.. GLG

 

[Zee]

What?  There's still a season going on?

Two things I want to see happen:
1. The Leafs win tonight.
2. New Jersey falls into a giant sinkhole.

the team or the state?

 

[Deebo]

Janssen still plays in the NHL?

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Jagr playing with two guys who have combined for 6 points in 29 games this season.

 

[Peter D.]

Disappointing that Rielly is the casualty of Fraser's return. 

 

[Corn Flake]

Disappointing that Rielly is the casualty of Fraser's return.

not like it's a permanent thing.

 

[Deebo]

Alter is reporting that Orr isn't on the ice and Reilly is rotating for partners which might suggest he Leafs are going with 7 D tonight.

 

[Redleaf]

Interesting that Bernier gets the start tonight and Reimer tomorrow. I kind of thought they'd do the opposite. I guess the thinking is for Reimer to shed the meltdown in Boston last year, and get back on the horse. I'd really love to see a win tomorrow night (or at least avoid a blowout)

Well I'm pretty sure if the good Lord send Hurricane Sandy in after seeing Jersey Shore, the least he could do is open up a sinkhole on the Devils.

Janssen still plays in the NHL?

Last night was actually his first game of the season, and he scored a goal. He had been in the AHL before that.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Carlyle revealed today that Orr has been battling injuries and hasn't been 100% since training camp.

I'm speechless. He could probably take a dump at centre ice and still play the next game.

Though, really, is an injured Orr any more ineffective than a fully health Orr?

Fair point. Although now I really want him to put my theory there to the test.
