VAN
?Thatcher Demko (7-2-0, 1.61 GAA, .948 Sv%) will likely start for the Canucks
?Vancouver is the biggest surprise team of the season so far, sitting 3rd in the league in points. They've been led by their trio of stars. Elias Pettersson leads all player in scoring, Quinn Hughes leads all defencemen in scoring and is 4th overall, while Thatcher Demko is one of the leading Vezina candidates right now
?Right behind them are two players who have had trade rumours swirling around them for awhile now: J.T. Miller has 20 points in 13 games while Brock Boeser is tied for 2nd in the league in goals

TOR
?Ilya Samsonov (2-1-2, 4.11 GAA, .855 Sv%) will start for the Leafs
?There's no indication that the Leafs will make any line-up changes on Saturday, but like there just can't be any way Reaves plays in this game with Holmberg on the roster
                                                                            Streams

McMann's been called up, and it looks like will be coming in for Reaves.
 
One good news, one bad news... maybe next game, both can be scratched.

I called the McMann move on the Calgary GDT yesterday. If Bobby plays as he did last year, on that spot, there is NO WAY Reaves will ever dress again. I wish the Leafs had dropped Reaves instead of Lafferty.

Starting Sansonov, allowing 4 goals at home (for a while now) and playing another blue and white team, Woll can see the action early in the 1st period... The bright side is that we won both comebacks down 4-1...

Anyway, Go Leafs Go!!!

So what's the over under on goals against with Klingberg on the ice? 2.5?

From "sad" to "less sad" to "pissed off" ... mood swing?  ;)

Takes months to swing it, but yep! Seven stages of Leaf fandom, I'm on stage 5.

Nice to hear 1 day off cured his injury woes.

Oh great. FFS.

On the other hand, when he screws up again, could this force something??

I think Klingberg can be better than Benoit still, and he generally hasn't been a complete and utter trainwreck playing bottom pair minutes which he'll be doing again with McCabe back.

I just think it's bizarre how quickly a lingering injury that's allegedly been negatively effecting his play can heal overnight.

Lafferty has 6 points in 13 games this season, all at 5-on-5. His possession numbers are last among all Canucks forwards with a 43% CF, but the Canucks have had a 10-3 goals for advantage with him on the ice. His xGF% is also 4th among forwards on the team at 47.5% (only 1 forward is above 50%)
 
First line needs to get going. Great the first night together since then meh. If they don?t help offensively tonight I can see us getting blasted. Vancouver didn?t play a great game in Ottawa with Demko on the bench and still won by 3.

It was a mental injury, the kind Kelly is suffering right now in the Argo game.
 
Hopefully someone in a Leafs uniform is being showcased for a Zadorov trade this weekend. Maybe Robertson?

sorry don't want to get rid of Rikki Bobby, Knies, or the other prospects.

Nobody on the high list for a 3rd pairing guy.
