Pre-Game Talk: Toronto @ Boston - Saturday 7pm

[Peace Frog]

Finally a game thats worth watching all 60 mins

Let’s hope the first 40 minutes makes us want to watch the last 20 minutes.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

That bottom six woof.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

McMann should be playing over Simmonds. That bottom 6 is rough.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Can’t wait for our favourite locomotive to take a dumb penalty.

 

[Peace Frog]

No McMann in tonight’s game??? Why? Ffs.
This is EXACTLY the type of game I want to see him playing in!

 

[Buds17]

Looking on the bright side...that top six!

 

[TheDoldrums]

 

[1specter]

f***, that's a big hit to our bottom six. Both guys have been excellent.

 

[Torontonian]

He and Holmberg are both sick, there is a bug going around the leafs room. The bottom six looking real rough right now though.

I also guess whatever bothering Matthews is something that's going to bother him the rest of the year and they're going to have to manage it.

 

[1specter]

Can we seriously not call up someone else to play in Simmonds spot? Steeves? f***s sake

 

[leafsfan5]

Simmonds in the lineup is awful

 

[TheGroceryStick]

Can’t wait for our favourite locomotive to take a dumb penalty.

Chooooo choooo

 

[1specter]

Simmonds in the lineup is awful

We have a poverty bottom six tonight

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

it's honestly shocking to me that they haven't found a way to move on from Simmonds. He shouldn't be playing in any games, but he's somehow getting close to 25% of them. It's completely brutal

 

[93gilmour93]

I want to see Wayne Train chip in a rebound goal tonight

 

[leafsfan5]

We have a poverty bottom six tonight

Yeah it's objectively terrible, they'll be getting caved in

We need our big guys to carry + Murray to stand tall. It'll be a tough game tonight

 

[Larcos_Unal]

Say all you want about him, but Dubas can sure put together one hell of a bottom 6.

 

[saltming]

Marchand Bergeron Pasternak
Hall Krecji Zacha
Bergeron doesn't seem to believe in time and Krecji rejuvenated from his time off.

I would really like the Leafs to win this game but first and foremost, no injuries please. Maybe that's why Keefe is playing the "heavies"?

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

seems a bit unreasonable to pretend that this is the bottom 6 Dubas has intentionally put together but oh well

No one is pretending anything, I'm literally looking at lineup that Dubas bought and paid for.

 

[Mess]

Is it just me or have the last 4 games been snore fests?

They have all been non playoff meaningless games, other than locking up a playoff spot.

Without Auston missing the last 2 its made the Leafs look even more ordinary.

Today however is one I have had circled for a while.

This will be a good measuring stick.

this may shock you, but you're actually looking at a lineup that's missing players that Dubas has bought and paid for. Players don't just disappear when they leave the lineup for a night

 

[Mess]

That bottom six woof.

At his point that bottom 6 will be our playoff bottom 6 baring a trade.

Who is missing Nikky Bobby and perhaps Matthew Knies ??

Never heard of Holmberg?

Then time to start making some trades.
