Orr's line in 2 shifts pbly spent about 4 minutes trapped in our own zone last night..

Yeah well its not like he's suppose to carry his line. :laugh:

He does a pretty good job hitting and intimidating other players. He's second among leafs forward for hits. You want to know who's first? Bozak, and he's out for tonight.

Wow, our second line is made up of off season additions and we have two fourth lines.

We are absolutely going to win this game tonight, because there is no way we should.

We are going to win this game because Pittsburgh doesn't begin with a C :nod:

McClaren should be the resident enforcer getting the bigger responsibilities when depth becomes an issue. Better skater and better hands than Orr.

And every time it was the D's fault for not getting the puck out. I remember one instance where Gardiner could have just chipped the puck out and instead he turned back into his zone, lost the puck and they spent like 1 minute 30 seconds in the zone. The D needs to stop making stupid plays, especially the puck movers like Gardiner and Franson.

We're down two top-6 forwards, we need a good two way player like Leivo. He's shown more to me in 5 or 6 games he's played than Ashton has in a longer look.

Holy jeez people!

You really expect either of those two lines to produce offense? We'll be lucky if we see offense from either of them. Putting a kid like Leivo there puts pressure on him to create. That's not how you develop a player. He hasn't been anything special defensively, and Carlyle would rather have size on the bottom 2 lines, then just Leivo by himself with two helpless defensive minded players.

IMO, Leivo on the third line over Orr gives the LEAFS a better chance to win, which should be the most important decision, not playing one games in the AHL getting 17 mins instead of 11 mins in the NHL.

How does Leivo on the third trying to do much give us a chance to win more then Orr? When Orr goes crashing in there, watch the Penguins throw the puck away. Just watch.

Not really. He's been invisible for the past week or so. Carlyle is just putting in players who are performing well as of lately. Simple as that.
