Also a Raptors way to lose a game sadly, gotta be a Toronto curse or something

Who sits Saturday if Franson is ready to return?

Percy? Polak? Franson? Do they dress 7 D? Gardiner?

I have a feeling they're gong to dress 7 D though I'd prefer they don't.

Personally, it's either Polak or Franson who should be scratched. Gards was probably the weakest link on the blue line last night but I'll chalk it up to nerves and he's too much upside to sit him after one ok game. Polak was the next weakest link and then Franson b/c at this point in his career he's really only a top 6 dman who can't demand minutes.

I dont think Polak should at all. If anything, Franson should be in the box until someone has a noticeably bad game. I think Percy had a better game than anyone expected, which threw a wrench into the situation.

Dont think they'll go with 7D because of the amount of forwards we have, unlike last year.

Yeah Percy not playing like a 7th dman did throw a wrench in their plans but a good one.

I think it'll be tough to keep Franson as the odd man out but maybe they're just going to make decisions game by game. If you have a bad game then you sit. And if the 6 dressed have a good game, you remain as a healthy scratch. If that's the case then I think Polak, Franson and Percy are the one's who potentially could see themselves as healthy scratches.

Is Gardiner going to ride the upside wave as long as Bargnani?

Gardiner was the teams best defenseman last year.

Terrible 1st period. Getting out shot and out hit, losing 0-3.

Didn't like the fact that the skate accountabilitymorning was "dead". Seems like these guys have no accountability right now.

Don Cherry going HAM on the Leafs...he's right but we all know this is one of the worst franchises
in sports and keep on doing stupid things with no end in sight.

I just hope they come to their senses and tank for McDavid and not fight for the 9th seed

Keep taking stupid penalties guys. You're doing a great job at that.

Someone threw their Leaf jersey on the ice. Most should do the same if this team isn't going to care about the game.

Pretty pathetic game last night.

Hopefully the guys get their heads out of their asses tonight.

Get an antenna. Even a cheap little $20 indoor one does the trick.

Squeaking into the playoffs as the 8th seed in the NHL isn't so bad because the playoffs are a crap shoot.

Saw the replay game on Leafs TV. Great 2nd period, but the Leafs can't keep giving half ass efforts and going 1-1 on back to backs.

Power play unit has looked really good so far.
