Thread: When Foligno is back
I like this. Mikheyev is one of the most frustrating players to like. His speed, tenacity and puck handling down low are super impressive. Then when he get's a chance to make a pass or a shot he all of a sudden has cement for hands. Engvall has looked much different to me in his playoff games. He's playing using his size more, finishing some checks and getting into it a bit after whistles, great to see! Only down side to this is moving Simmonds down. I like him better in a 3rd line role. I haven't really liked Thornton Spezza Simmonds but was only for game 1 and that game needs to be taken with a grain of salt. The one thing about Brooks in the lineup, is him between Jumbo and Spez seem to ignite the two elders a bit and I think they like playing with the young guy.
Anyways, a long winded way to say I'm grateful for the depth this team has and I'm excited to see if they can close out the habs next game.

Thread: Its game 1 chill out
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafsfan416</b></div><div>They had 3 delay of game penalties, that has to be almost close to a record 😂. This is still a very winnable series, but the lose of Tavares had to suck the life out of this team tonight. I hope and they should rally around him and win. I worry tho who is going to be 2C</div></div>

Even with the lose, we still set a record. There’s a positive 😂

I just got the notification that Tavares is “conscious and communicating well” it also says that the initial tests came back clear. Even if he can’t play, just having him in the building for the team to see and play for would be amazing. And if he can’t be there, a call just to tell them to “get out there and win” or along those lines I’m sure would help too.

In terms of the 2C thing. I wonder if Foligno could handle it. Maybe Nylander even to be honest. He has been so much better this year, especially in his own end, at least from the eye test and what I remember.
