GDT: Leafs @ Senators Pre-season game 2 TSN4 &5

[therealkoho]

How? Over Rielly, Gardiner and Dermott?

no

but Hainsey sure looked like a #7/8 last night, he was horribad last night

Gardiner - Rielly

Dermott - Zaitsev

Rosen - Borgman

I'd need to see more of Ozhiganov, but there's a possibility he may supplant Hainsey in the line-up, if Hainsey doesn't or can't pull his socks up, and to be frank his skating was ponderous and he made a lot of poor decisions with the puck, it may be because it's early and he's a slow starter, but just because he did yeoman service last year doesn't mean he's owed a roster spot

Carrick > Rosen/Borgman.

Unless they plan on benching Jake or Zaitsev, I don't see it.

Jake did have a baby yesterday, why is he even practicing.

playing LoVerde over Timothy would be incredibly pointless and annoying though. Even Marincin over Sandin is questionable.

As for Gardiner, I could see him not playing. it's only a preseason game

Henny confirmed [projected] lines for tonight, and he's not playing!

Sandin-Liljegren are in <3

Carrick > Rosen/Borgman.

alrighty then, there is a possibility he could be, but Borgman was the best Dman on the ice last night and from what I saw of Rosen in the CC playoffs, he's not the same guy who "almost" made the team last year if not for an injury

I'll give you a scouting report tomorrow, I'll be there tonight

 

[Liminality]

I'm excited to see how Marleau and Matthews work together. Been reading and hearing that Matthews has taken an extra step this summer, we all kind of assumed this would be a big year for him.
Hoping those one-timer practices are paying off with Matthews and Marleau!

All eyes on Lindholm tonight. Let's see if he can skate.

And actually, all 3 of those defense pairs are going to be interesting to watch too.

 

[Daisy Jane]

Really?
I follow nothing on social media and even I saw the wedding pics.

obviously, really, or i wouldn't have said it.

Yup big test to play with 2 fast players. He doesn't have much competition though.

Oh this was posted earlier... my bad. . Anyway... Looking forward to see how the d pairings do.

 

[Morgs]

I'm so excited to see Sandin-Liljegren play together today.

Their styles should mesh very well, could be a pairing on the Marlies, and potentially the top-pair at the WJC.

 

[BorntoLose]

Sandin - Lily should be fun hopefully they get a decent run it is preseason after all.

Jake + his Wife had a Baby! congrats
(and this is why i call bull crap with the whole "you can't be invisible in Toronto.". did anyone know he was married or expecting? nooopee).

Did anyone care?

 

[LeafsNation75]

 

[Daisy Jane]

Did anyone care?

that's not the point.
the argument is everyone knows everything about the leafs and they can't have their privacy. that's not the case.

 

[CanadasTeam]

Auston Matthews speaks with members of the media ahead of tonight's pre-season game against the Ottawa Senators

 

[LeafsNation75]

that's not the point.

I remember a time before Twitter was around and this was in the early 2000's if a Leafs player wife just had a baby, Joe Bowen would say and that goal was scored for baby _____ insert name right there for his next goal that he scored. So did he need to even bother mentioning it during the broadcast?

 

[therealkoho]

Did anyone care?

it's a wonder knowing Jake that he "hit it" at all

 

[Muston Atthews]

I’m really interested to see our Finn and Swedes + Matthews today.

The new look fourth line and Sandin + Liljegren will keep me watching that’s for sure

 

[BertCorbeau]

All eyes on Lindholm tonight. Let's see if he can skate.

Tonight's line up as a whole has more appeal to watch since they're more fringe guys and prospects

 

[PromisedLand]

what happened?

 

[glue]

Pumped to see Matty and the Johnsson-Lindholm-Kappy line, hope they tear it up
