Can't wait for this game. Been waiting to see Clarkson get in on some action!

Looking forward to this game. Sure, Clarkson's game might be off thanks to missing those first 10 games, but should still provide some energy. At least he's been able to stay active in practice.

Should be an interesting game and hopefully we can put together a streak of wins here.

Clarkson debut? Leafs in a landslide

 

[Eb]

Lol that's great. Never saw that.

Rosehill has a huge mouth for not establishing anything in the league yet.

 

[Hurt]

Can't wait to hear the cheers for Clarkson on Saturday night.

 

[stakesishigh]

Unleash the Clarkson.

You know he's gonna be zooming in his first appearance.

 

[LeeIs]

Finally Clarkson makes his debut. I think he'll fit well with lupul and kadri. Raymond isn't cutting it on that line. Raymond will be a nice fit for the third. Hopefully we get a W here. Saturday's game will be tough.

Leaf Nation should invade this place - looks like 40% of seats still haven't sold yet. 6.5 hour drive from Toronto - shorter if you're in London.

Lucky I wish I had the time to go.

Its going to be a great game. I don't expect Clarkson to be up to speed right away but his presence can only be positive. Bob is a great goalie but I still expect us to win this game quite easily.

 

[Puckstuff]

this adds a lot of depth it allows Raymond to go down and play 3rd line minutes where he should be


JVR -BOZAK - KESSEL
LUPUL - KADRI - CLARKSON
RAYMOND - BOLLAND - LEIVO

 

[Mitchy]

I just remembered something. Every game that we have lost this season has come from a team that starts with the letter C. Does this mean we're going to lose against Columbus??

Hope Reims gets the start for this game

Doubt it, its a back-to-back with Pittsburgh on the tail end. Say what you want about Riemer he's been stellar vs them it would make sense to give him the pens game and Bernier the Jackets game.

 

[LMFAO]

With Clarkson comming back the lineup most likely looks like


JVR- Bozak - Kessel
Lupul - Kadri - Clarkson
Raymond - Bolland - Leivo
Bodie - Mclemment - Orr


I really like it, plus Kulemin and Mclaren are comming back in a week or so.

 

[TMLife*]

We haven't lost a regular season game with clarkson in the lineup. This is a W for sure!

 

[Mikeyg]

clarksonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn is gonna go ape in this game, bringing out the banana on this one

I think you are really underestimating the CBJ. They are a really big, solid team with skill and a great goalie. I think it'll be close either way, but I would be wary about dismissing CBJ so quickly. Their record doesn't show how well they have played.

Too much man!

 

[leafspring*]

Going to pot his first as a Leaf en-route to a big team victory. Feelin' it.

Huh,he ows some physicality to the team after gettin sucked in in by someone of the likes Of Scott goin full out for Kassel. Where is the trams identity? Yeah man Clarkson will be owin some game.

 

[Ratboy]
