Lightning @ Leafs - Oct. 10th, 7:00pm - SNO, Fan 590

What Tampa does really well, and the Leafs could stand to do more of, is bringing the puck across the slot a lot. They attack east-west with regularity. The Leafs are easy stops even with good grind time because they attack from one lane. Vasilevskiy doesn?t really have to move other than telescoping out and in.
 
Uninspired 2nd period.  Leafs on the verge of a 3 game losing streak 5 games into the season. 

Few teams have better players.  Most teams have a better on ice plan.

Ceci's been exposed pretty good so far.

He's not good. Rielly and him are the worst so far.

They do miss Dermott, for sure.

They do but I don't expect the D to improve greatly when he comes back. The bottom pairing really hasn't been an issue. The problem is mostly with Rielly who looks off and it isn't just when he plays with Ceci. He hasn't looked good with Barrie either.
Does Ceci move down when Dermot is up to speed?

Bang on but we seem to harp about this every year.

Who knows.  As a RHD maybe not. 

But if Rielly and Muzzin aren't getting it done, it doesn't really matter. 
 
Well, on the bright side they are perfectly capable of getting a couple in the third.  I'll say Auston gets another, anyhow.
