CHI
?Arvid Soderblom (1-6-0, 3.89 GAA, .879 Sv%) will  start for the Blackhawks
?After a somewhat slow start Connor Bedard is now living up to the hype. He has 16 points in 17 games and is on pace for 48 goals
?Corey Perry has been weirdly M.I.A. in Chicago the past few days. He was a healthy scratch in their last game which was described as an "organizational decision" and then did not participate in their practice on Thursday. Lots of speculation around that but Chicago is not saying anything more about it yet

TOR
?Ilya Samsonov (4-1-2, 3.56 GAA, .878 Sv%) will start for the Leafs
?Timmins is expected to make his season debut with the Leafs after a pre-season injury has kept him out of the line-up to this point
?Jarnkrok took a shot off the leg at practice on Wednesday that stung him and kept him out of practice on Thursday. Keefe called him a game-time decision for this game. If he doesn't play Ryan Reaves or perhaps the newly called up Alex Steeves will replace him on the roster

One of those games we should win... Leafs always struggle with these. I would like to see a well-played 60-minute 4-1 Leafs win.

Go Leafs Go!

Perry will continue to sit and Chicago will continue to be weird about it.

The level of evasion here implies a legal/union matter that requires negotiation/ruling.
 
Just watching Boston and Detroit while eating my dinner* waiting for the Leafs game to come on. (*I will never get tired of sensibly timed hockey or the novelty of it)

Andrew Raycroft is their ice level reporter. Flashbacks.
 
Extra benefit of the early face off, my 5 year old has asked to be allowed to watch the first period instead of going to bed.

Another generation being indoctrinated as we speak 😎

I don?t think he actually wants to watch. He just doesn?t want to go to bed 😂

He will be indoctrinated anyway. It took me 5 years after returning to Canada to make my Son a fanatic. And he is a Caribbean born boy.

Bad news - Ryan Reeves in!

I guess if they're going to get him in a game this would be the one to do it. But like they could have just not.

If he can't play against Chicago, should he really be in the NHL anymore?

I guess the question would be why.  Why do we give charity games to players who are clearly below the standard of NHL play simply because they punch things.  The 4th line has been so much better since he came out of the lineup and now we get to go back to having a 4th line that has a defensive anchor, doesn't generate any offense and also makes 80% of Kampf's value useless.

Congrats on the excellent AHL play Alex Steeves.  Now sit and learn how to play NHL hockey from Ryan Reaves.
 
Leafs are looking great in the early going.  What a bizarre thing to see them start on time.
