Nick Robertson can't buy a break.

Actually he has gotten several breaks for free.  He doesn't need to buy them.

There's definitely some bad luck involved, that's for sure. But some of the more astute members on the forum (I'm looking at you, Herman and CTB) clearly noted in the past that Robertson's stature, fearless approach, and skating mechanics (hunched over) expose him to greater risk of injury that other similar players (Caufield, for example).

I really hope he can get this figured out because he's going to be running out of chances real soon.  I'm not convinced he's going to be the player we all hope he will be for the Leafs, but these injuries may eventually put his NHL career at risk.

Good game... fun to watch.

It sure was

And look who scored....

Boston's Grizlik (sp?) has one of the most, shall we say, unique, skating strides in the league.

There is no way you're going to be able to spell his name phonetically

Not even close....

Matt Grzelcyk

Tavares line continues to be filled in despite the Nylander-Marner flip....common denominator

Yeah Rielly was on the ice lol

No LOL required....you're speaking truth

Buntings hands are excellent.

Dubas needs to find a way to keep him

Papi knows best

That loud thud you may have heard is Connor Timmins coming back down to earth.

He's a pretty good #5/#6 guy, but he's nowhere near ready for the first pair.

Agree, not yet, anyway.  I think we were all getting excited by his play since the trade - me included - but that may not necessarily be a reasonable expectation at this point.

Keefe did it in the playoffs against Montreal when he took Sandin out of the lineup for Dermott and Sandin came back and didn't look good.  I wonder if Timmins getting scratched got in his head and cooled him off.

Playing with Gio and Brodie is a much different game than playing with tonight's partner.

You can say that again.  The deadline acquisition process needs to focus on finding someone who can play and accentuate #44.

I think Timmins can have a seat the rest of the way.

Sorry, but Nylander can join him tonight.  GiveWay after giveaway.

Also, Keefe needs to let go of the five forward PP.  "Stop trying to make it happen, Sheldon!".

They saw that high stick, didn't they?

Please, please, someone straighten up 96 Walman
