Line Combos: Leafs 23 Man Roster

[thewave]

Mine:

Marleau - Matthews - Nylander
JVR - Bozak - Marner
Leivo - Kadri - Komarov
Hyman - Aaltonen - Brown
Martin, Moore

Reilly - Hainsey
Gardiner - Zaitsev
Dermott - Carrick
Rosen

Anderson
Sparks

What I think it'll be:

Hyman - Matthews - Nylander
JVR - Bozak - Marner
Marleau - Kadri - Komarov
Martin - Aaltonen - Brown
Fehr, Moore

Reilly - Hainsey
Gardiner - Zaitsev
Rosen - Carrick
Marincin

Anderson
McElhinny

Yours is a lot better. Its proper.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Still don't like JVR and Bozak together

 

[Mess]

Now that the pre-season is over...

Hyman - Matthews - Nylander
JVR - - Bozak - Marner
Marleau - Kadri - Komarov
Martin - Moore - Brown
*Leivo, Fehr​

Rielly - Hainsey
Gardiner - Zaitsev
Rosen - Carrick
*Marincin

Anderson
McElhinny

What do you think?​

That would be my best guess as well.

The only real question will be will Fehr/Moore battle for opening night. For more physicality Borgman might be out Rosen.

 

[Budsfan]

Hyman/Matthews/Nylander
JVR/Bozak/Marner
Marleau/Kadri/Brown
Martin/Komarov/Fehr
Levio

Rielly/Hainsey
Gardiner/Zaitsev
Rosen/Carrick
Marincin/Borgman

Andersen
McElhinney

Yeah, it's time to pick one. The line throws off the whole forward group IMO.

For me it's Bozak (to go).

A defensive black-hole and have been for year (any line with JVR and Bozak)

Together yes.

Maybe they would be better on separate lines, but it's not really an option here.

 

[TheGroceryStick]

Marleau-Matthews-Nylander
JvR-Bozak-Marner
Hyman-Kadri-Brown
Komarov-Moore-Martin(Kapanen)

Gardiner-Zeitsev
Rielly-Hainsey
Dermott-Carrick

Andersen


- this is the best lineup we could ice imo. But it won't happen.

 

[CanadasTeam]

My best guest would be 3 forward lines remain intact for the time being but the 4th line IMO will be:

Martin - *Fehr - Brown
extra: Leivo, *Moore

The 3rd pairing D will be *Borgman - Carrick
extra: *Marincin

(* interchange during course of 1st 10 or so games then solidifies)

 

[LeafChief]

Has it already been discussed that if Aaltonen doesn't make the team, he's heading back to Europe?

Where did you see that?

Sorry, that was a question.

Whoever will go on waivers will be done so by tomorrow morning so they can clear/claimed by tuesday.
