I hope not, he might be centering Weise and Fleischmann next game if he does !
That doesn't give Byron much hope if he shines...

Leafs:
Hunwick-Phaneuf
Gardiner-Harrington
Marincin-Rielly
Please no more complaining about Emelin or Gilbert ever again.
Matt Hunwick an 8yr. veteran NHL Dman (Boston, Colorado, NYR's, now Leaf's)won a Gold Medal at 2004 WJHC's, a PMD that was 3 time best Dman for Michigan Wolverines, no small feat and was voted best defensive defenceman in CCHA 2006-2007. So no he's not a bum, he's paired with Harrington whose a gamer as well, Toronto Maple Leafs(Shanahan) are building quality depth slowly just as Bergevin has in Montreal actually.
Since I had the misfortune of watching Hunwick skate on Avs top pairing for far too long I can safely say he's not a good hockey player, he a guy you have as a #7 if you have a good D, #6 in a pinch maybe.
I hate starting the season against the Leafs.
Win and you beat a non-playoff team. Lose and you lost to a non-playoff team.

Most important game of the season so far. Has the lineup been posted?
