I think Gallagher looks off too. His timing or something is off - nothing seems to go his way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that it's the Leafs, I might not get this one, either. Yeah I wasn’t able to watch through premium because I’m in leaf territory. Thankfully I do have TSN on my tv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will this be the case for all games vs the Leafs (except maybe the Saturday night NHC national games)? Usually, all of the Toronto-Montreal games are national ones so that shouldn't be an issue for you. But yes, if there was a regional one, you'd be out of luck.

Next year, Toronto will get the good lineups and Montreal will have the so-so ones. There's actually an informal agreement in place between the two organizations going back about 7 or 8 years now, two games each preseason with alternating which one hosts the better matchup. Matthews, Marner and Nylander are the "B" lineup? 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IN THE HEARTS OF MEN Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Arber X is a beast. If he can rein it in a bit and not get caught running around... he's gonna be sticking with team sooner then we think. SLAVS is having a good game as well. At least a half dozen chances created or taken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least a half dozen chances created or taken Xhekaj has been involved tonight but he's struggling defensively with his positioning. I'd like to see him settle down on that front but the rest of his game has been good. Agreed on Slafkovsky. A slower start but he's gotten a lot better as the game has gone along.

TurdBurglar Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I know it's still preseason. If Dadanov was on a PTO this preseason, he doesn't get a contract playing the way he is. I hope he picks it up at some point, but he's not impressive in many positive ways so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Boagalott Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I've liked Simoneau for several games now. I a fan of his feisty attitude. Loved Xhekaj's 1 hand push the guy to the ground. Slaf is looking good tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does seem like all the young d are having their "moments" and that Allen & Monty are surely in for a tough season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Minister Koivu Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Dach is impressive Hoffman and Dadonov don’t look great I think Xhekaj deserves a couple NHL games to reward him. He has all the tools and effort but he needs more coaching. Gallagher is cursed Slafkovsky looked like he did in the rookie tournament. He is going to be great - in Laval. Matheson looks almost as good as Petry so that trade is looking good… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyhasbeen Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I remember last year preseason when people on here shot me down for saying X Factor was going to be an NHL defenceman. "ECHL at best" was one of the retorts if I recall right. You guys need to tool up on your scouting abilities, lol. Unfortunately I cant watch any preseason this year to give my insight.

DON Posted October 4, 2022 Author Share Posted October 4, 2022 Matheson- 22:03 2minutes on PP & 2minutes on PK; getting a good look at him anyways. Havent seen #20 play yet, but how will new Mgmt treat him? I assume they will have him in opening day lineup, or at least in press-box and then simply give him a brief stint in NHL before likely sending down to Laval at 1st sign of struggle. And many young Europeans struggle alot (it seems) when jumping in to the NHL. https://www.nhl.com/news/state-your-case-should-slafkovsky-start-season-with-montreal/c-336019402 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still stuck looking at a trade with SEA.... maybe we can trade Dadonov to SEA retaining 50% of salary and adding a D prospect like Leskinen or Fairbrother for Fleury... crering a forward roster spot, clearing some salary and patching the RD ?!
