We are forgetting that most of Toronto's "A" squad, would likely be in the AHL elsewhere. I'm not sold on Jiggy either, he's getting slower, and our team is going to be going fast. This will be a good game.

Care to name these AHL caliber players on the Leafs? Their lack of firepower is a result of their lack of elite offensive players outside of Kessel. I don't think anyone playing in their lineup tonight is not worthy of an NHL contract.We are forgetting that most of Toronto's "A" squad, would likely be in the AHL elsewhere.

This will be a good game for an exhibition. Looking forward to the pens game before the end of the preseason. I think they will ice the season lineup as close as possible. GO WINGS!
BTW, anyone checked out the wings "Questions" ad? Love it. I wish I knew all the exercises and drills those guys did in the offseason. Would love to have a hockey specific conditioning regimen.

They are a mash-up team of players that Burke could get to sign.
There are a few playing that won't make their team, for the most part, I don't want any of them on the Wings.
I could see the Leafs team winning the Calder cup this year. The Stanley Cup, not so much, which is why I think it will be a good game, the Leafs should win, but our guys backed by Howard may pull it out.

I think this one's going to hurt. That said, if the Wings somehow pull this one off I'm not letting my Leaf friend fans live it down.

Some people are putting too much stock in winning/losing. It's a meaningless preseason game. Just enjoy the game and observe the future.

Exciting lineup. It will be fun to watch the young guns like Coetzee, Tatar, Owens, Smith and Mursak.

Just curious.. has Kessel sat out any of Torontos games so far? Seems like he has been in then all and scored all of their goals.
Oh well, Im confident that the Griffins are just as good as the Leafs on any day..
LETS GO GRIFFINS!

"Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing." - Vince LombardiSome people are putting too much stock in winning/losing. It's a meaningless preseason game. Just enjoy the game and observe the future.
"Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all time thing. You don't win once in a while, you don't do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing." - Vince Lombardi
If one, if not the greatest coaches of any sport of all-time disagrees with you, then I will have to respectfully disagree
.Plus: “We’re going there to win,'' Babcock said. "We’re going to play real good without the puck. We plan on Howie playing good. He’s got to get himself ready for the year. We’ll play as a good five-man unit and we’re going to push them for everything we can.’’
