This game is on my birthday. Going out for dinner at a Leafs bar out here in Vancouver. Stoked that it's going to be Clarkson's first game as well

It was actually a joke in reference to the large amount of Leaf fans here.
I actually don't think there's any Leaf bars here though, or at least I've never been to one.
And tickets are going for 200+!

I know there's quite few Leafers out there, So I wouldn't have been surprised if some one did start a bar or a club up.
200 is steep, Especially for a matinee in Vancouver.

Yeah I'd think so too. But you can usually just go to most bars downtown at 4 and catch the game and there'll be a couple Leaf fans there. At least from my experiences. It's not like they have Canuck pre game on or anything before 7.
Leaf tickets were already expensive enough, so let's just put it on Bure retirement night!
Hopefully in a week or so we can get our full lineup rolling.
JVR - Bozak - Kessel
Lupul - Kadri - Kulemin/ Clarkson
Clarkson/Kulemin - Bolland - Raymond
Orr - McClement - McLaren
Phaneuf - Gunnarsson
Gardiner - Ranger
Fraser - Franson
Rielly
Bernier
Reimer
not too shabby.

From the runaway slave to a modern day king.
I have a feeling he will try to do too much, just like Phaenuf's debut.
Hope I'm wrong. Lupul/Kadri/Clarkson has deadly possession potential.

For me to start
I would go
Bozak Kessel JVR
Kadri Lupul Leivo
Bolland Clarkson Raymond
When Kule comes back put him with Kadri and Lupul.

I actually miss Mclaren.
Having that Mcclement Orr and Mclaren line is good insurance, and a good wake up line when this team is sleeping.

Once everyone is back, we're going to be a pretty dangerous squad.
JVR - Ballsack - Kessel
Lupul - Kadri - Clarkson
May-Ray - Bolland - Kuli
Broll - McClement - Orr/McLaren
Phaneuf - Gunnar
Franson - Fraser
Gardiner - Ranger
Brennan
Bernier/Reimer
Soko's Notes:
- That is 3 dangerous lines and it will expose teams weaker defensive pairings.
- As soon as Clarkson is on his wing, Kadri is going to grow 8 inches and play with an edge.
- Yes, reilly is missing. He's been great, but I'd prefer to send him down. I want him to continue to work on things (his shot is weak) and also be a go-to guy for team canada. I'd like to give Brennan a shot...if anything as a weapon on the 2nd PP unit. His shot is a bomb.
- With Kuli and Fraser back, our team defense will certainly improve.
Leivo has been good but I wouldn't mind too much if he was sent down to the Marlies playing top-line/PP once Kulemin and Clarkson are back.

There is actually a chance that MClaren comes back in this game too. So, if he does he will most likely take Bodie's spot.
If mclaren doesnt come back in this one, surely he will be back against the pens on saturday night
