honestly, regarding Leo, y'all should have accepted it ages ago. (and before anyone starts with me, I've said that if it were up to me I would have AJ in, because I feel that line is faster so it's not Babcock catering or whatever some will call it). I also don't think it's as simple as some people are saying that "Babcock doesn't see it." because he's not stupid.
I think it's 'easier' (not necessarily right, just 'easier') to go with the more established player going into the playoffs vs. going with what's right, on the off chance it pays off. You can justify it (or say 'finally!!") when Leo gets swapped in for AJ (or heck even Leivo) if that line seriously suffers in game one or something, or if the PK struggles or something, because then in your head it's like "okay maybe the new person will be a lot better." (even though he will be, we hope).
I feel that for a lot of coaches they'd go with the known Quantity first, vs risking the chance that the better option might not be up to task for whatever reason, then you have really no option. it doesn't really make sense but coaches minds are weird. We'll more than likely see AJ in game 2 (if that line struggles, win or lose), but heck, for all we know, AJ is in and this is Leo getting his paces before he sits again because he missed a lot of time with that injury.
