Hoping for a shut out by reimers and he keeps the ball, starting both of the back-to-back. When was the last time we put up a shut out anyway? -scratches head-
it's been a while prolly like october?
Against a really motivated Staal, who normally kills the Leafs anyway...
It's certainly been a while.we've only had two on the season and both in October.
we shut out Edmonton 4-0 (Reimer in net).
and Nashville 4-0 (Bernier in net).
Ouch that sucks.I assume you mean Eric being motivated by not being on Team Canada? He left the Islander game with an injury and didn't play against Nashville either. He is expected to be out again this game unless something changes at the last minute.

Carolina is 2 points back with a game in hand. Kind of a big game.
A Carolina win in regulation time would actually take Leafs wild card spot away temporarily and move the Leafs out of the playoffs for the 1st time this year.
So this is a big one for the boys to defend their turf in and hold their spot.
.
Looks like a loss might serve them better than a sloppy SO win tonight.
Lose this game and may be they actually get their collective heads out of their ***** and realize that they pissed away a GREAT opportunity to get the top 3 seed in the division or create separation in the wild card race by playing like *****.
So what do our lines look like Holland down in the AHL? is Trevor Smith back or are we gonna go with 7 defenceman?
7 d makes the most sense. Any of the Centers can rotate into the 4th line for the 5 minutes a night they play.
Leafs don't seem to perform well in big games. Last 2 games were that and they came out meh, and Bernier crapped the bed as well.
Tough to be an optimistic fan these days.
