Boston Bruins vs Toronto Maple Leafs

I am incredibly anxious to see what Kadri brings to the table tonight. He is going to be motivated as all bloody hell.

This has me excited and a bit worried.. he needs to channel that into timely hits and a strong forecheck, while not taking dumb penalties due to over-exuberance

Unfortunately for leafs fans, one of those two things seems more likely for Kadri.

It's like watching Marchand as a Bruins fan. Such a skilled player, but you gotta wonder what's going on in his head sometimes. It's anxiety inducing at times. He could either score two goals or get suspended in any given game.

hopefully Marleau can keep him in check. Or, I'd consider him on the 4th line with Kapanen & johnsson and roll 4 lines 15min each - Leaving Pleks with Marner/Marleau, wtf would Boston do with Kadri C'ing the 4th line?

I really don't think this worries the B's in the least.. Kadri on the 4th line would benefit the B's as Plekanec would be getting more ice on the 2nd line.. Perfect!!

I would think they roll them evenly or push the hotter line out more often. It's food for thought... getting Kaps & Johnsson more ice time.

hopefully Kadri will be a difference maker in a good way ... also hoping Bergeron sits this one out

Babcock is really shaking things up this morning. Should be very interesting....

Hyman-Matthews-Brown
Marleau-Kadri-Marner
JVR-Bozak-Kapanen
Johnsson-Plekanec-Nylander

I like it, mix them up!!

[PenguinHunter]

Wow... does Babcock know that couturier was injured and thats a main reason why Hakstol switched his lines so significantly haha.

[fungchen3]

Nylander to 4L is a wake up call. Fire the kid up then bounce him up during the game. Or hope it goes to OT and unleash him.

[PenguinHunter]

Munch prediction is a 3-2 game tonight. In OT


whoever scores the first goal wins in. And I think it will be Boston. But I think we are in for an awesome game tonight.

Pre game prediction: 5-1 Boston

Toronto looks finished. Look at their demeanor in the pre skate. Kadri with a sad looking face "I'm excited" .... Boston looks fired up and ready to roll. Go BEES!

Good start for the Buds.

That's how the Leafs looked like last game until the :28 second mark.
