Galchenyuk and Simmonds on the ice today for practice wearing regular jerseys. Expect one or both to play in TORs next game.

Interesting starting point for Galchenyuk. We'll see how long this lasts.

This is likely Galchenyuk's last good opportunity on a scoring line. he better make it count.

Here's a sneak preview

Hahaha!

JT for Eichel!
Islander fans can dream.

[tweetdrivr]

Islanders?

[Invictus]

Everyone wins...
Eichel gets new life on new team,
Leafs get a younger superstar,
Buffalo gets... i guess veteran leadership / super star
and yes, Islanders. Their fans get to be happy that JT goes to a dead end team.

Vesey definitely won't be missed!!

This has been a long few days lol

[kovalchuk17]

i agree, it feels like it has been a while. in my points league i had a slight lead in first and was simply hoping i stayed in first by the time matthews got back. it was getting really dicey until kopitar and doughty last night. just need to survive tonight then matthews back tomorrow!

Wayne Simmonds returns to the lineup. His first game back since Feb. 6th. He'll start on the fourth line with Engvall and Spezza.


Alex Galchenyuk makes his #Leafs debut on a line with Tavares and Nylander.

Dubas said he's willing to move a top prospect for a Forward in a deal.

Sandin, Lilli, Robertson, and Amirov are the only "top" guys I can think of.

Hirvonen & Miettinen, as well Axel Rindell is pushing into that category with his season in Liiga. Rindell IMO is a prospect to watch.

Or to free up a spot to trade for Hall

FML... no chance in hell. He is not a good teammate. you hear it from the Leafs all the time, this is the best locker room the young players have seen or been in. Hall is a selfish player who would infect that vibe.

pass pass pass.

I'd rather have Galchenyuk. who at least is a good person. (he just lacks the IQ or hockey sense to keep up with the Leafs. Their puck possession brand of hockey isn't for everyone. And when you can't make it with Pitts, Minn, Arz. Ott or Mtl. I'll be shocked if he makes it stick with the Leafs.

Campbell backing up Andersen tonight, which would mean he's likely playing tmo.
