I think that when they are giving domi that 15min instead of 12min and Knies 15min instead of that 11.9min it will get better. Bertyzzi should also play like 16min+. Not 15.1min. Then we will get the win. You will see this.
Fair point but we need to see what he has. Give that line very sheltered mins. We need to give bertuzzi, knies, domi actual mins and support them to see if we do need to trade them.
I think that Reaves will play silly good agains the lightnings tomorrow night. He will definitely fight with someone. And adds that vokal game like no other. Lets see what happens tomorrow and also see how our other linebackers and pawns play. We need them all against that horrid, agitated tampa team
Loaned benoit back to marlies, called up Holmberg.
That second line will be hemmed in d zone. Need to switch Marner and Nylander and then I will agree.
Where was his snarl when Willy got run into the boards from behind
When Bert stood up for himself others joined in. The problem with the 4 is they don't engage in their own defense. If this does not change, the team identity will remain downy soft and the team will continue to lose against teams that play hard against them.
The revamped lines were more effective (crucially, putting Kampf between two offensive but flawed players as I'd been advocating for paid off).
I don't think it's so much a snarl. He's a greasy player and the Leafs will need that. His value might show more in a playoff game but I think in time he will be good. I think early on here he is trying a bit too hard in to make something happen or get noticed and needs to let the game come to him a bit. He does create net front presence on a few of the Matthews goals not really noticed.
