U dont need JT on unit 1 if you throw Bertuzzi there


Nylander-Bertuzzi-Marner
Rielly-Matthews

Marner fills in whenever Bertuzzi moves to behind the net. Bertuzzi there to tip Matthews, Rielly, or Nylander shots

Matthews thrown out the dot Willy can take em.

Unit 2

Knies-Tavares-Domi
Liligren-Robertson

Cause unit 2 has no need for Nylander when they got some weapons such as Robertson.


Would rather have 2 net fronts and have guaranteed possession...

Reaves activated. Bertuzzi to the non active list. At least that’s the short term move.

So Formenton is 100% one of the guys listed. News comes out he is required to surrender and his team immediatly gives him a leave of absence.

But i think we already kind of knew he was involved based on not getting a deal.

Not ready to speculate on the other guys (especially Hart and Dubé just yet)

So the Jets are icing this lineup tonight:

Connor - Namestikov - Ehlers
Perfetti - Toninato - Iafallo
Niedereider - Lowry - Appleton
Barron - Kupari - Johnson Fjallby

Morrissey - Demelo
Dillon - Pionk
Samberg - Schmidt

Brossoit

This has blowout loss written all over it after Leafs legend Dominic Toninato pots 2

Well, so much for my McLeod trade idea. Sounds like Michael is in fact involved. Foote too

Had a bad feeling about McLeod. He took a long time to comment and didn’t deny involvement

I think it's more depending on which Leafs team we see tonight, the one that strangled held Seattle, EDM, etc. Or the one that couldn't hold a 3-0 lead

One of the craziest parts about all the WJC stuff is how the teams continued to play these guys regularly and have them represent the organization. There's no way FO's of teams didn't know if their players were involved. I understand they probably couldn't do anything drastic - like terminate their deals - based on unproven accusations, but they were under no obligation to dress these guys every night. It's insane.

I watch HNIC every Saturday night and sit through the bull**** that is "Hockey is for everyone" segments they do every few Saturdays and shake my head because these people don't understand crap about inclusion and positive culture.

Am I shocked that teams continued to play these suspected players? Absolutely not...the NHL and hockey in general is so backwards and stuck in the stoneage, no wonder it's a niche sport and why this league continuously lags behind the other big sports/leagues in North America.
