According to the boys at Team 1200, Chris Neil is on the PK tonight. Interesting.

Yeah, I've seen him there in previous games. Not sure why they are using him in that situation.

New coaches must be trying to find out if he can do the job to increase his value to the team. Personally I think he does not have the footspeed or puckhandling skill or defensive ability to do it well. Time will tell.

This is a sign of how ready they are for game 1. All the pre-game talk was about competing with this roster, this is the 1st game of an 83-game season, etc.

Wish I could see, but giving up 2 goals on odd-man rushes isn't great. At least we're outshooting them.

He was toxic. He was blaming his teammates for bad goals he allowed.

He needed a reality check.

I think he was being "real" with the likes of Cowen, Wiercioch, Boro playing D; but That type of behaviour does not result in greatvteam harmony. Too bad the GM did not address the issue soon enough.

I see that Colin Greening is demonstrating the "right stuff" for TORONTO resulting in wearing an A tonight for the Leafs. Hmmm. Makes one think.
