Leafs forward depth really shines on paper doesn't it?

When JVR, Bozak and Kapa are 4th in depth, you're building something right....

Leave the lines as they were Babs!

Kadri skated between Marleau and Marner on Saturday as well. Switched back to Pleks-Marleau-Marner that night.

Same thing could happen here

Please let that be the case! Plek's has been solid since being put on that line! Kadri, Willy and Johnsson are magic.

Babcock is def playing mind games with Cassidy, but I think because he has last change he’ll approach this game matching more than he did last game. Last game he rolled the 4 balanced lines and told Cassidy to pick his poison. Tonight Babcock is poised to feed Cassidy his poison.

The Kadri and Plek switch makes sense, kinda figured at home ice Babcock would want to dictate those kind of lines.
Seems like Johnsson is staying for at least the rest of the series? Guess Leo is there in case for injury now.

OMG Leo is practicing on the PP.....

Please God no.

That first goal is critical to Leaf's success - I'd be interested to know, if there's such a stat, number of times Leafs scored first and won vs. loss with first goal.

All I know is every game this series, the team that scored the first goal won.

On two of the three Boston wins, they scored on their first shot.

I just don't see the logic in having Leo anywhere near the PP

I like the balanced 4 line attack for this series. It limits the fall out if the Bergeron line gets out for a shift or two with a different match up than we want, and Chara can only play 1/2 the game, so we have a decent amount of firepower out there when he isn't on the ice.

Well in this series the team that scores first has won every game.

The forward lines won't be Boston's focus, it'd be the D pairings I assume.

From the Bruins GDT

If Rask shuts them out they only need 1 goal.

Guess Rask is getting a shutout

 

[Ulysses31]

Cant wait for this game

 

[Damisoph]

please god no

edit - maybe the mannequin they have the guys shoot around was out of commission?

 

[ottomaddox]

Last chance to rip Leo Komarov everybody!

The ACC better be a madhouse tonight. The crowd plays a role. Lift your team, pile on the opposition. Could be the last game until October. Might as well leave your voices in the building before they (potentially) turn out the lights.
