Pre-Game Talk: Toronto Maple Leafs @ Edmonton Oilers | TUE OCT 29 9PM (EST)

[LeafOfBread]

PKI seems grumpier these days.

 

[shakes]

Just calm down and start following some reporters (or even MapleLeafs account) on twitter rather than asking the similar questions over and over again.

Btw, Leafs haven't practiced today. They reached Edmonton an hour back. They will practise some time later today.

Not everyone uses Twitter, you know. No idea if the other guy does or not but if you don't like the question(s), don't read them. This is a discussion board where questions can be asked or answered.

What does it matter you could just answer the question

I did answer the question. In fact, added the practice time immediately afterwards as well.

To be fair, some of us don't use the utter garbage that is twitter (hate the concept). Thanks for the response!

Actually, one needs to know whom you want to follow for the right information [mostly for facts, not opinions]. I follow twitter for Leafs and hockey news only and am quite satisfied.

Lines in practice right now:

JVR - Kadri - Kessel
Ray - Bolland - Clarkson
Lupul - McClement - Ashton
McLaren - Smith - Orr

Extras: Kulemin, Bodie


Looks like they're expecting Lupul to play tommorrow.

Twitter is a great way to get news, its about how you use it. Follow the right people and it's very informative.

What part of the concept do you hate?

I'm expecting Lupul and Raymond to swap spots.

Right? RIGHT!?

Judging from those lines I'd say they aren't expecting him to play. Lupul with McClement and Ashton?

 

[Asif16*]

What were the D pairings?

 

[zeke]

...and Lupes was on the 2nd PP in practice, Clarkson was not.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Judging from those lines I'd say they aren't expecting him to play. Lupul with McClement and Ashton?

If they weren't expecting him to play, he'd be part of the extras. Why would he practice with guys who will be playing if he wasn't expected to play?

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

I'm expecting Lupul and Raymond to swap spots.

Right? RIGHT!?

This. Lupul can't be on the 3rd line....right?

When everyone is healthy I like the idea of

JVR-Kadri-Kessel
Lupul-Bozak-Clarkson
Raymond-Bolland-Kulemin
Ashton-Mac-Orr/McLaren

Bolland and Bozak can potentially flip flop

 

[Duffman955]

Raymond started the year off on fire. Now he looks like a liability on the ice.

Very bad decisions in the neutral zone that end up in odd man rushes. Has done this several times.

 

[Al14]

Automatic win because Edmonton doesnt starts with a C

Great, motivation for Edmonton to use to beat us. Are you somehow related to Lars Eller?

smith and ashton sent down, not on the western trip

 

[FlareKnight]

Curious to see what happens with Lupul. May save him for the Calgary game if he's still labouring out there.

 

[Warden of the North]

Practice lines on a non-game day really dont mean a whole heck of a lot. I wouldnt read into them too much

 

[naturalnumbas]

Don't quote me on it but I think to win this game the Leafs will have to score more goals than Edmonton.

 

[cup67]

Reporters saw Ashton at the practice skating with Lupul .

so, was he on the plane when the leafs left town?

 

[bobermay]

smith and ashton sent down, not on the western trip

Not according to Paul Hendrick
