Looks like this is the ahl squad. I think the only line that will be on opening night will be lindholm, johnsson, kap

He still might get a better look with a close to complete NHL lineup and that's why he's in the other group

So is it starting to look like Nylander ain't making that paper thang light up before the starting night y'all? Is it so or is it ain't? Asked shakespheare real hard. And he on this thang. I thank we need that sucka, real hard. Even though he ain't hitting peeps, he hard. Offensively. We will still win easily this other, poorer organization wednesday y'all can bank on that there. I for one am investing real hard money on this night and on our Toronto maple leafs (better team).

Interested in seeing Subban play. He had an ugly year last year. The previous 2 were pretty decent AHL productivity (especially for a rookie).
From what I remember, he had a decent pre-season last year with Vancouver. Green even had him wearing an 'A' for a game.
He'll likely amount too nothing special at this point in his development but we know he has good genes. Could pull it off.

Thank you for asking sire and I truly do. I am putting some money (paper) on this thang tomorrow also. Not just week after this bruising. Invest into our club and get some. Y'all are tru fans who know this organization all the way through. Earn some through them also. Now is the time. We are getting even more rich, powerful and talented. Others are already very, very jelious of us.

But don't put too many moneys tomorrow on it. A week after this one... imagine how many goals tavares and matthews etc will score then against these fools 
MANY. Very many. Even 9 is possible. Maybe even 10 straight from the start.

Johnsson - Lindholm - Kapanen get first line minutes. It will be interesting to see how they respond to this.

No stars in this one. Giving bubble players chance to shine. Leafs PR on Twitter
Shows us Leivo might finally have made it. What else? Lindholm has to make it..no other center for the 4th line. Does it also mean one of johnsson or kap is going back to marlies.
I know Ennis has made the team..albeit itll be on kadri's once nylander signs. So that means Leivo Kadri Ennis or Brown Kadri Ennis
Then...Levio Lindholm Kap/Johnsson?

cool...... forgot about the 30+ games last season thing lol. Greening and Marincin were in the AHL last season so didn't think it would count; but apparently it does

Interesting way to look at it. I looked at it and went well kap or johnsson may not make it and Leivo has.
Just because he is not in the lineup tomorrow doesn't mean that he is the other group.

I think they both will make it. Yesterday in the post game Babs I think accidentally already said they are the 4th line
I think once Nylander signs it is going to be between Leivo and Ennis; and Leivo may take a seat in the pressbox again as the tie goes to the "vet"
Looks like Rosen and Ozhiganov made the opening night lineup on D and Leivo and Ennis at forward.
No decisions on goalies yet.
