Outside of OEL this team is getting no scoring from the backend.
Tavares has been quiet for over a month now.

Time to give Villeneuve a shot finally?
They're not the biggest minutes obviously but McCabe can't keep playing PP2 like he did last night. Not with all the other responsibilities on his plate (23:01 5-on-5 minutes and 2:46 PK minutes last night). So yeah if OEL is going to miss even a few games a call-up feels necessary.

But we have Myers!!!
So if you went to the Vegas game, would you boo Marner?
I don't like my answer, but I probably would.
He got paid far too much and delivered far too little in the playoffs. The stupid amount of assets given or walked away due to salary constraints was painful. We added every deadline just to watch him suck in the playoffs. The whining and bitching was/is palpable. He demanded the world, and we got a crap return on investment.
Vince Carter still takes the cake, but this is a close second for me.

I've always considered myself relatively neutral on Marner. First game back in Toronto, he's going to get boo'd. And boo'd hard. I think/hope time will eventually heal wounds and we can someday recognize him as one of the best Leafs to ever put on the uniform, but it won't be anytime soon.
