Nobody expected the Leafs were going to be without their centre depth though.Remember when November was suppose to be a cakewalk?
Put Holland on the wing, heard he can play it.
i'd rather move Kadri to the wing. Then move McClement to 4th line and get Trevor Smith back in the lineup. Smith can at least provide some offense. McClement has no offensive instincts.

Time to trade Lupul and get some value while we still can.

Lupul is just being Lupul.
He's 60 game player, but will produce a good ppg for those games.
This is essentially true. Since becoming a Leaf he's missed ~25% regular season games.
82*0.75=61.5 games.
Just give him a copy of Hustler and tell him to un-strain it, we need him back.
So I googled about grade 2 groin strains and apparently it's not good. It's the same injury Quick has and the estimated rehabilitation period is 4-6 weeks. He's a great player but for 5M+, 5 years, Nonis is going to have to find a away to bubble wrap this guy if he wants to get the most out of his investment. I get that injuries happen but with guys that get regularly injured compared to the other guys around the league, it's hard to wrap my head around that kind of bad luck.
