Both teams icing pretty full lineups, should be a good "test".

Yup, there's our D minus Gardiner and Komisarek.Lol at the Komi quote. Also one player will be coming off the fourth line. Otherwise it's pretty full. Sabres are missing at least Leino and Myers. I feel like the Sabres are built a lot like the Leafs. No outright stars outside of Vanek (Kessel) and Miller, big bodies on D but with offensive upside, waterbugs on the first 3 lines. It'll be interesting for sure!

It'll be interesting for sure!I was thinking about that the other day as well. There's Kessel/Vanek who are the upper tier players and then there is a lot of depth. A lot of 'skilled, fast players'... similar in ages too. Obviously they have Ryan Miller which is quite a significant difference. I'd say Roy is a very, very good center (a notch above Grabs or Connolly easily) but other than that, they have fairly comparable rosters in my opinion.

I should have quoted the original post, I think he edited it and removed Schenn cause it came out later that he wasn't playing tonight. Originally there were 8 guys listed there.
