gryz is better suited to play the old maple leafs, who just whizzed around doing spin-o-ramas. the current version is
much more treliving-like, which isn't a good fit for 48. also love lohrei getting a look. if he's going to be a big part
of your future, get the kid playoff reps now.

Lohrei is not ready for playoff hockey, maybe he won’t get pushed around, but he also doesn’t make the right plays with the puck in the d zone. He is always turning the puck over off of recoveries. He will be good for us soon, but he is just not ready yet in that aspect. Gryz almost always makes the right play, and when he doesn’t, it is usually a low danger turnover or a 50/50 puck. Lohrei’s recovery mistakes are generally straight to the other team in moderate danger areas.

Griz never passes the eye test, but in some metrics (e.g., 3rd among D in +/- behind only Carlo and Lindholm), he looks pretty good, but then I'm not a metrics expert.
