Doesn't matter where you start, it's where you finish. Mac rewards good play, so if they have a few decent shifts to kick things off, they could see the most ice time.

No where do I see that stated as the 4th line.

Stone makes his NHL regular season debut. Sweet.

5-0 Sens. 3 goals from Michalek. Stone and Silf with the others.

BOOK IT!



GO SENS GO!!!

I like these lines personally. Michalek coming back is so important and havinga line of Regin, Stone and Silfverberg is something that I could see clicking personally. Although...I don't want to dissuade Regin from shooting, but sometimes he'll need to pass that puck off a pit - especially if he has two shooters in Silf and Stone.

Very interested to see this game, but sadly I'm out tonight - which really sucks. Hope they come to play and come to score tonight.

Silfverberg playing with 2 guys who can dish the puck and Regin who likes carrying it is probably a good mix. Turris has 2 guys that can pass and shoot. Pretty balanced lineup right there and no one you are really worried about when they are on the ice... maybe Zibanejad and DD a little.

Maybe Michalek's return can spark Turris...

I think they switch up Dizzy and Greening before the middle of the game, to have 3 scoring lines and one banger line, but we'll see.

Mendes: MacLean will confirm shortly, but O'Brien & Daugavins appear to be the healthy scratches tonight.

Meh, not really lately. DD from time to time I guess, but Z-Bad's been pretty good positionally I've though.

I like those lines as they are, I'm curious to see if these two additions perk up the rest of the team offensively. Not just Turris, Alfie, Regin and Silf, but also Condra and Greening and especially Z.Smith who really can't score right now and it's getting old.

Either way I like the fact Turris and SIlfverberg are not playing with each other... both guys like to shoot and it wasn't working.

Yeah, that didn't work yet. You need Silf with Spezza or Regin.

Silf might be better off the top line to get him away from the top defenders on the other team.

Perhaps, but having Spezza as your C helps a heck of a lot more than having Turris as your top line C. A lot of defenders just trying to keep Spez under wraps, so Silf would have a better chance of getting into the slot for his passes.

I don't pay too much attention to Leafs games.. other than against the Sens... but is Kadri playing 3rd line centre -- and more or less protected from the best checkers on the opposition?

I don't pay much attention either, but I saw him playing with Clarke MacArthur who I think is on the 2nd line.

Grabovski centers their 2nd line.

Kadri is on the 3rd with MacArthur and someone else(they had Orr there last time I think).

If that's true...imagine what he could do with top line minutes and wingers? I shudder to think...perhaps Murray was serious, he wanted him after all, because this kid is KILLING it.
