Did you ever have a beer or two at the Octo-bar?

Marner should be with someone who can snipe... So Maybe JVR Bozak Marner?
- Arctic_AARDVARK

Good point.

But does Brown then really fit with Kadri?


Komarov, Kadri, Brown???

Babcock says he thinks it's crazy people expect Marner to bulk up. Says Marner has a real good chance to make the Leafs. He's going to be on the team..

well yeah..

Funny how certain people battle me daily about this.. When it turns out im right (as always) they act like nothing happend..

I would like to see JVR Kadri Marner

And then force JVR to use his size.

Good point.

Mmmm.. hard to say, they'll probably juggle a but until they find a good combo. Maybe even have JVR Bozak Marner as the top line

well yeah..

I just find its funny people expect him to get to like 200 pounds or something..

JVR-Matthews-Marner-Nylander
- TheMussel

JVR, Matthews, Marner


Thatis the line I really want to see but Babcock saying Nylander will go on Matthews wing stops me every I do a line up. If the Leafs do that line up everything else falls in place a little better too.

Komarov, Kadri, Sosh
Brown, Bozak, Nylander
JVR, Matthews, Marner
Greening, Laich, Michalek

That line up is the best of all possible scenarios....my favorites anyway.

Need to bulk up to play in the beastly ATLANTIC !

I think Babcock's probably gonna try something along the lines of

Outside midfielder?? Outside back?? Wtf is this.....?


What a (frank)ing joke....

Pffft... amateur

Lol... Prob not but just wanted to throw it out there...

Though here's my logic around it

Top 2 lines one fairy god father to protect on each (i.e. Komarov and Martin)

3rd can take care of it self though kinda looks defensively irresponsible

4th line grinders with some skill

Prob will never happen just thought I'd throw it out there
- figgs1979

JVR and Komorov 1-2

Levio, lupul above martin still, he's a 4th liner.

Now your coffee is getting poisoned. see you in a cpl mns.

Please explain how you think that Komarov and Sosh belong on the first line.

That's hilarious that he would have them there and not Martin.

Klefbom and Hall are turning into Drizzy and Meek.

- Atomic Wedgie

I don't think we have a "first" line. That would be a decent shutdown line, though I'd be more inclined to put brown instead of sosh.

I'd say:

Jvr bozak marner (give easy matchups/ozone starts)
Komarov kadri brown (scoring threat from naz/brown, play against top lines)
Greening matthews nylander (greening did well last year, deserves a chance)
Martin Laich Sosh/hyman
Michalek

new blog everyone
