Sure but he's been physical since the first pre-season game.

I never really watched Pacioretty prior to the Leafs but have heard he wasn't particularly physical. Which I find a little strange as looks like he _loves_ to hit now.

maybe they'll even get a shot on the next one!

Looks like I picked a good first period to miss. SOG 15-1 what...did the Leafs even get off the plane lol

Problem is, come playoff time and the stars get shut down...even if Jarnkrok is where he belongs on line 3, who in the bottom 6 is going to score a big goal for the team. Same old, same old.

Jarnkrok is a tough one to figure out. Decent regular season player, usually good for about 15 goals and 30 points...20 goals in a good year. But those playoff stats, ouch - 5 goals in 93 playoff games. And watching him produce nothing for the Leafs when they had to put him in the top 6 in the...

I think Robertson is worth another shot after sitting some games. At least give him a chance to produce a little to enhance his status for other teams. Once everyone is healthy (if that ever happens) he's not going to be playing much if at all. Nylander...just waiting to see his name on the...

I sure hope we get more than his "old self" in the playoffs, because the results up to now haven't been very good. What have they scored, 1 goal in each game 7 they've lost over the past 4 or 5 years? Not sure how many of those (if any) were scored by Matthews. These guys (I'm including Marner...

Whatever it is (and I'm also thinking back primarily but maybe wrist too?), he looks a lot like he did the year he "only" scored 40 goals. He seems to be shying away from many puck battles, not really able to make space for or get off his great wrist shot all that often, fumbling pucks, seems...

They need more offense so something has to change. Otherwise they'll just be losing 2-1 or 3-2 games in the playoffs...again.

I'm hoping with all the injuries, Berube has asked the team to play a safer game (and possibly over-compensated) and that things will open up a bit when Domi and McMann get back.

Faceoffs, avoiding puck battles in the corners, not able to get open for shots on the PP. Seems very hesitant. The goals he scored the other night, one was an almost unmissable set up from Marner (of course many Leafs would have missed it anyway), the other rolled off his stick and happened to...

I hope Matthews is just rusty from the layoff but it looks to me like he's still dealing with some kind of nagging injury. Just seems off.

Yep. Losing lots of battles the last few games.

a penalty? to pittsburgh? no way

Can we just end the Alex Nylander experiment already...

It should look like that more often, with all the talent out there and shooters like Matthews and Nylander.

Some are easy. Grebenkin back to Marlies where he can play big minutes every night. A. Nylander on waivers, I guess about 25% chance a bottom feeder picks him up but it's addition by subtraction...he showed nothing. Tonight I think Robertson has to sit for Pacioretty if for no other reason...

Personally think Robertson should be the first to sit if someone comes back tonight. I know he scored a nice goal the other night and tries hard and all, but mentally he seems messed up. That attempted drop pass to Tavares last night sealed it for me. Sit him for a game or two and let him reset...
