Preseason: Sabres @ Leafs - Sept. 21st, 7:30pm - SN1, TSN 1050

[CarltonTheBear]

Looks like we'll see the Hyman-Tavares-Marner and Leivo-Kadri-Brown lines again up front. On D it'll probably be Rielly-Hainsey, Marincin-Carrick, and Sandin-Liljegren (odd that Ozhiganov isn't on this roster after practicing with Hainsey). McBackup and Sparks likely split the net again.

Keep in mind that this game is currently scheduled to be broadcasted on Sportsnet One. Sportsnet Ontario has the Jays game.

Looking forward to seeing more of the Sandman, but also wanting to see more of the Oz.

Sabres are keeping their big guns (Eichel, Dahlin) in Buffalo for Saturday's game, but at least we'll see a Nylander on the ice tonight.

They gonna interview Alex and ask about his brother?  When's that no good brother of yours signing anyway?

Twelve-year-olds can't suit up.  It's a clear violation of child labor laws.

How can he do this and his newspaper route at the same time?

SDA makes Marner look like an old man.

I think Leafs might be good this year.

apparently I really gotta get on that TavaresBear sweater......

Marincin has looked like crap to me. Doubt he makes the team

 

[Hobbes]

Carrick has been pretty shaky too.

 

[AvroArrow]

Sparks was swimming really early on that one...

He's been awful. I think most were thinking he'd be the #6 or #7 if he made a solid impression, but I don't think I've ever seen a player on the ice tonight so uncomfortable with handling the puck.

 

[Phileas Fogg]

I've liked Engvall's game a fair bit though.

Oh Marincin

Oh Marincin

Marincin's bumble there was mostly flukey, just a too-hot pass that got through him. Carrick got pretty exposed on a one-on-one play.

Plenty of bad plays there, but Marincin is clearly fighting the puck. And his attempt to pivot and recover the angle after missing the pass reminded me of oil tankers doing three point turns in the english channel.

SDA is going to be fun to watch develop. I know the youthful comparisons to Marner in terms of appearance are obvious, but there's a few similarities to how they play on the ice as well.
