Are we sure Murray will ever be healthy?

I thought Sandin Sucked on the right side?

Apparently, he's weeks away from returning, but maybe you mean in the sense that he would be like Mrazek you tore his groin every time he came back.



I think he's okay with Gio, still would be better if he can play on the left side

It seems like Murray has been injury prone for most of his career. So wouldn't him being healthy be an anomaly?

Bunting needs to be in the top 6, I don't think he's going to be doing anything in the bottom 6, plus Jarnkrok is better suited to play on that 3rd line than him. The bottom 6 looks like it has purpose, when it's made up with Engvall, Jarnkrok, Kerfoot, Malgin, Kampf, and Auston-Reese.

Bunting is only effective riding Matthews and Marner's coat tails. It's like having a music group of Lennon, McCartney and Kim Mitchell. That patio lantern can't compare with Eleanor Rigby or Hey Jude.

Yeah, for sure. They just need him to play enough games as he's not really the starter even if he's considered as the "1A". I think they more so, hope to have him healthy in the playoffs. His last appearance in 2019-20, he had a trash regular season but he did much better in the 3 games that he played in the playoffs. They also seem to hope that they could fix his game overall.

Yeah, I think it would be fine if they put him with Matthews and Nylander, which then turns into Bunting and Matthews fetching the puck, rather than Bunting and Marner. If they can keep that line together that's fine. The top 6 can be fluid, but I feel like having Bunting especially and Robertson to an extent on the 3rd line is helping no one.

Post title should be “leafs lineup IF Murray is ever healthy”

I used to say the same thing about Anthony Mantha.

He does but Keefe is too stupid to put him where he belongs. On the PK he had Rielly playing RD, the leafs worse d-zone guy. I guess Keefe thinks because they get paid more, they are automatically better than a guy making less.

That’s wrong keefe isn’t stupid we simply don’t have space. Brodie-holl is a pretty good pair imo. It fixes up holl. Gio-sandin is sort of soild. The defence can be better but it’s soild for now
