Pre-season: Sabres @ Leafs - Sept. 20th, 7:00pm - SN1, TSN 1050

The Leafs were off today so there's no indication of what the lines will be for this game or even which players will be suiting up. So not really sure what to put here. Hope everyone had a good day I guess.

Meh, it was alright.  How about you?

Yeah same, I got to correct herman on something though and that doesn't happen very often.

Bullfrog usually gets there first. Friday is a great day to correct me!

They'd damn well better hitch up their pantaloons and get serious. I don't want to call this disastrous start to the preseason a Death Spiral but it sure looks like one.

It's probably time to crack each other's heads open and feast on the goo inside.

They should do Spezza first.

Hmmm Kerfoot and Mikheyev are playing, but not Petan.

 

[herman]

IT'S HAPPENING MAYBE

Guessing:
Johnsson - Matthews - Nylander
Mikheyev - Kerfoot - Aberg
Agostino - Shore - Read
Timashov - Gaudet - Conrad

Rielly - Ceci
Sandin - Hollowell
Kivihalme - Liljegren

I think they want to see if Petan works with Spezza too. He's likely going to be the utility option up and down the lineup if he makes the cut (if Kapanen can't cut it LW).

Interesting they went back to the Matthews group, rather than Tavares'. I know they had a day off yesterday so everyone is rested, but group 1 is now off 3 straight.

I would not be surprised to see Marincin - Sandin instead of Hollowell to see if Marincin > Harpur (yes).

Guessing:
Mikheyev - Kerfoot - Aberg
Agostino - Shore - Read

Maybe they're putting Shore on Kerfoot's wing to help him transition to centre.

Oh maybe.

Mikheyev - Kerfoot - Shore
Aberg - Agostino - Read?

I kind of liked the look of Agostino - Shore - Read the other night.

OR MAYBE COLT CONRAD. Who is a right shot Trevor Moore with less rump.

The defense group is so interesting to me (i.e. everyone I want) if we ignore Ceci.

What do you mean by everyone you want?

Just that you want to see them play, or you want them on the NHL roster this season?

That I want to see play this preseason.

Locks: Rielly, Muzzin, Barrie, Ceci, Dermott+
Likely: Marincin, Schmaltz, Holl
Learn more: Kivihalme, Liljegren, Sandin, Hollowell, Duszak
Leave: Harpur, Gravel

Aberg gets a turn on the projected 3rd line. Shore playing below a guy I've never heard of before is something. Really weird how he's been buried so low all camp long.

 

[Highlander]

I don't like our Back up Goalie situation. If something happens to Fredo, weez screwed.

I've been in meetings!

Though I didn't know about the sliding bonuses anyway.

 

[herman]

Gaudet was signed alongside the mashup of league minimum signings. He?s probably the new Chris Mueller.

Kristian Rubins is one of the standout players on the Kelly Cup champion Growlers who is earmarked for Marlies graduation.

Sandin-Marincin is going to be nice. Harpur-Schmaltz tomorrow is sort of what I?m worried about (Harpur anyone really).
