That pass was ridiculous. If ever bored, go to youtube and watch tavares's 47 goal season highlights. It's basically MM bouncing pucks in the net off Tavares' blade for a year.

I wonder what number it would take to re-sign kampf. You can't overspend on depth, but he's been a good player, and he and ZAR have 2/3 of a line you'd like to keep.

I think i'm going to go ahead and just put MM in for motm now

liljegren hasn't shown that he can be outmuscled at times, and isn't great at boxing out players. I think Dubas probably looked at Perry/Maroon/Paul, and wanted a 7th D option for situational play. The leafs really didn't have anyone that could clear a crease or be physically hard to play...

Since the game means nothing, I hope they make the kid's year and put him in for a bit

Maybe they're just looking to get O'Reilly some PP time to get his timing back, and give a few guys a lighter load. It may have nothing to do with sending a message. I mean, there's 4 games left in a career year for Nylander, he's been great... some rest might be way more helpful, but I am...

I wouldn't pull tavares off PP1 because his best skillset at this point is mid slot redirects and quick shots in close, with minimal skating required. He does it well. They've got tons of guys that can move the puck around the perimeter, tavares gets down low and adds options.

Samsonov Brodie

I think pittsburg has 16 straight, no? and Preds+Caps at least 7... those streaks probably get broken, tho

I agree with this. I understand the initial need to experiment and find chemistry considering the large amount of turnover in the roster, but I'm getting more annoyed by the constant pre and in-game tinkering. Set what makes the most sense regarding skillsets and let the team develop into them...

ZAR Kampf hm Lafferty, Bunting for his first successful game of image rehab

Well, Tampa's got a tough game in NY tomorrow. You'd have to figure if they can't manage a point, the leafs can probably back into home ice.

wow 50 shots. Shouldn't have been this close.

I would have thought you'd file a Greave-ance with the league

Damn, that was a nice shot

He's played a lot of really, really good hockey through most of the year, but the lack of effort at times of late is disconcerting. Maybe a bit of load management wouldn't be the worst idea.

Well that was a timely compliment

I've liked ZAR and Kampf this season. Fast, smart, safe plays, great on the boards.

Willy is playing absolutely abysmally without the puck. That last backcheck before the horn went should have keefe fuming.

So many grade A chances.
