So there was this time I was in a Paris subway, wondering whether the lockout would end and whether the pre-lockout acquisition of Mats Sundin would change the fate of the Leaves, and this guy is playing Sexy Sadie......

Not in my books. I have at least 6 conspiracy theories about that, not even including tummy sticks.

Read today, Austin Mathews is the same age as the pajama boy when he moved from Long Island.

Rogers had bought out Bell's share of the leaves among rumors that Belt has some financial issues

Didn't show it in the clip, but you should've see coach Berube on the bench.

As he was watching the replay, he said to ass coach: "He's leaving that game just for THAT??"

Seems like Berube was unaware of Nylander's history with severe migraines. Image

Nylander, Matthews, and Tavares have all missed time this pre-sea with injuries already.

Guess they're not used to Berube-level (read: normal) practices.

And soon Berube will learn that the pretty-boy core-four are the boss... not he.

Gonna be fun to watch. Image

Berube is already calling the lineup out for being soft.

There could be a post allstar/trade deadline collapse if Berube works them the way Rickey ran Vancouver.

Not that we haven't seen it $11.6M times......

Y'know, it the right two injuries happen, Leaves could miss the playoffs and all hell would break loose.

(from the Media thread)

Leaves goaltending looks just as questionable as ever in my opinion.

They are running with two backups, both covered in question marks.

Stolarz is 30 with a grand total of 108 NHL games under his belt.

Woll has played 36 NHL games and is extremely injury prone.

As a matter of fact Woll will miss Leaves opening game tonight (was scheduled to start).

On defense they let Brodie/Edmundson/Lyubushkin/Giordano go...

And brought in old/injury-prone guys Tanev/OEL/Hakanpaa (Hak on LTIR to start the season).

I mean I like Tanev, but he'll be 35 by Christmas and is due for an extended stay on LTIR.

Their youngest defender Liljegren continues to disappoint.

He is a usual playoff-healthy-scratch and didn't make the top-6 cut this year.

And this after Tree-living handed him a $3M x 2 contract this summer.

Looks like he was knocked out of the top 6 by the underwhelming Conor Timmins.

Timmins is 26 and has played in just 91 career games, averaging under 15 minutes-per-game.

He will join fellow-tweener Simon Benoit on the bottom pairing until when/if Hakanpaa returns.

On offense they lost Bertuzzi and replaced him with over-the-hill injury-prone Pacioretty (36 next month).

I suppose Knies and the disgruntled Robertson could improve a bit

... but Nylander and Old Man Tavares will not be as good this year in my humble opinion.

Leaves start the season with Jarnkrok and Hakanpaa on LTIR, they are out for the first 11 games minimum.

When these two return, Leaves will have to waive someone they'd rather not, or dump Liljegren/Jarnkrok.

(just guessing here, haven't given it a lot of thought)

Anyway, with all the old guys added, and the aging Pajama Boy, they're just asking for trouble.

Speaking of trouble, pending-UFA and self-proclaimed god Mitch Marner should be a major distraction.

I'm predicting a meltdown at the centre of the universe this year. :mex:
