Yeah I was just doing it for the Montreal game, but we can make it for the entire weekend if that's what you guys think makes sense.

Its probably best at this point. A tournament thread and maybe a GDT for each game.

The one event they show on the terrible channel in order to pull customers in.

Thought RogersTV would have it atleast.

This is stuff that should be shown on LeafsTV. I mean not even everyone here watches it, the % of the general population that would tune in would be minuscule.

And I cannot get Rogers where I live, so Im quite happy with it on Leafs TV.

I seem to remember last year the games were streamed on either http://marlies.ca/ or https://www.nhl.com/mapleleafs

So I assume Liljgren is the guy everyone wants to see. First time we'll get a good look at him against other competition in his age group in an NHL environment. Also interested in seeing Rasanen and what he can do. Dermott should look like a top 5 defender in this tournament.

For forwards, I want to specifically see Bracco and Grundstrom.

Ya I am definitely interested in seeing these 5 play although I expect big Ras to be back in Kingston shortly, he needs a few years of development in Jr now.

Also curious to see how Brooks fairs.

Very happy that Grundstrom will be here! When the news broke that he would be loaned to Frolunda I wasn't sure, their season starts Sept 16th. Wonder how long he'll stay in NA, I see him as a likely piece for the big team over the next 2 yrs.

Ya I think Dermott will quietly dominate like he was near the end of last year on the Marlies. Neilsen may get more praise as he is a flashier player but Dermott just does all the small things right.

Heeeyyyy... that channel will be useful for something then.

I watched a couple of old games during the summer out of boredom. Otherwise, I haven't watched the channel in ages.

Hey I live in a condo resort in Muskoka where I only get basic SNET @ TSN. No Leafs channel. I cant change my TV pkge.

Any suggestions on where I can watch these games, I did watch the rookie games here last year.

Investigating streaming options but would appreciate some advise.

 

[Hurt]

Expectations from Liljegren? I want him to play a smart game, nothing dangerous or trying to do too much.

 

[Lebanese Leaf]

Hoping Dermott can really excel in this.

Liljegren looked Karlssonesque

In that case im not if there are any other legal options besides LeafsTV.

I *think* you'll be able to watch it here.
