I hate that I am more excited about a prospect we don't even have signed than our highest pick since 2020.

Knew nothing of Leslie until yesterday but after learning more how is wasn't a late round flyer for some team is crazy.

I will be very disappointed if they don't sign him to an ELC. You can teach defense, can't teach the offensive abilities this guy has.

Pens invite Panos Fimis to their prospect challenge next week. Im still a Pano Fimis fan, really wished the Leafs gave him an ELC last year. Oh well, we've got Leslie

Luke Cavallin on that second goal ew

Reminded me of Hutchinson back in 2019

Nice goal by Tverberg man though if he scored as he got tripped would have been one for the highlights if the stream actually worked lul

Niemela also with a goal but dont know if we get 4 in time to tie it 7-7

Well it looks like Knies got hurt someone slashed him in the wrist

Any update?

Who scored the 3rd goal today? I seen Tverberg and Niemela scored but the final was 7-3 per the Leafs Twitter. Who scored the 3rd goal?

Max Ellis basically AHL guy

Max Ellis slander???

I dont really expect much from him hes a nice guy for the Marlies but thats really it

Really hope Leslie and Sova get looks at today's game against Dallas, both are well deserving of ELCs

Still no Leslie which is infuriating, we better not let him walk. Sova gets a look though

Easton Cowan is going to be a fan favourite. I get that the selection draws some ire, but you cannot hate the kid. If you've ever thought "man, I miss Zach Hyman", then you're going to be pumped to see the Cowboy. Weiss also looks really promising so far.

Im still the CEO of the Max Ellis fan club as well. He is electric

When did Kokkonen become a goal scorer lul

Cowan is having one heck of a game right now. It's live streaming on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JVWOCnz5OI

Kid looks super good.

He's looked amazing tonight, solid game from the Leafs tonight in Traverse City.

Man Easton Cowan was buzzing that game he just feels like the perfect edgy guy were gonna need in the future

Knies and Minten also looked good

Kokkonen scored 2 goals which is pretty funny as hes not known to do that

And Hildety looked steady in net

Overall an improvement from last game

Now to go eat some Wings Saturday

Looks like Leafs are going 11F-7D to give Leslie a look. Doesn't look like an ELC is in the cards which is a real shame. Hope Treliving ends up giving him and Sova contracts

Really liking Gruden's usage of Ovchinnikov, nice to see him get a real chance

This pass first mentality is getting silly

So many prime scoring chances but nope pass and let it go the other way

Also that Villie pass textbook dont do that kind of pass lul as outcome was expected

Peska almost got the Dangle quote lul

What a game by Lisowsky. He looked good today

Hopefully hes the next 7th rounder who makes it for us

When his season is over bring him over ASAP

So excited to see the Marlies under Gruden. Cannot wait to watch Ovchinnikov, Hirvonen, and Niemela this season. Curious to see what Tverberg can do too

Matt Cooke is the Growlers new HC
