I think the announcement is more just to disrupt Tortorella's planning a little.

It's chaos time baby!!!

If Johnsson can handle it
Johnsson - Nylander - Hyman
Mikheyev - Kerfoot - Kapanen
Works better to me

Kapanen actually has the gall to hog the puck from Nylander, who could be setting Kapanen up for tap-it-ins.

That will be a huge boost for 3rd line that has looked a little lacklustre.  Robertson has not looked totally out of place, but has been starting to look like more of a boy amongst men.

Yeah I'm seeing some people on twitter act stunned that Keefe would take him out. He hasn't been bad but I also don't think he's been quite as good as I was hoping for. Not bad for an 18-year old though.

GO LEAFS GO!

Interesting...Robertson had some flashes but didn't look ready to me (though Columbus maybe isn't a great match for him especially at this point). Johnsson plays a style that should be helpful as long as he isn't too hyped up (he tends to get that way and take bad penalties at times) and is ready for game action.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Good first shift for Johnsson.

 

[ZBBM]

I'm kind of surprised that he inserted Johnsson but it does introduce a factor that CBJ can't have planned for, at least not much.

Colour commentator talking about his it's smart to give Korpisalo the start here. He knows Elvis is injured, right?

 

[cujo4ever]

Good to see Muzz in the stands

 

[barney_rebel]

We stink dudes...

 

[ZBBM]

Deflection? 
Yep.  Unfortunate goal.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Deflection? 

Yup. Right in front. Brutal.

 

[YYZ]

Stink it up.

Smart not to play an injured goalie.  Very smart.

 

[ZBBM]

Ugh.  Too many men.
