The team in front of him have been sh!t. Not gonna win scoring 1 goal and being crap at D.
Andersen is not the problem.

- Fakepartofme


He is certainly part of the problem in this series. To deny that is simply foolish.

I think kadri goes to 4C but they play more minutes then the bozak line. Babcock likes Johnsson and kap and leafs could get so good matchups with kadri out there.

If Leo is ready to go, Johnsson comes out, and all of a sudden its Komo-Kadri-Kap 4th line and it doesn't look nearly as dangerous. The KKK line is not ideal. Might not be a bad shutdown line, I guess.

I don’t think they play komarov imo. Johnsson has been a bright spot and atleast noticeable as far as leaf players go in this series.

other then I don't think any goalie changes the 3-1 Series lead for the Bruins

Leafs haven't been good enough and I don't think there's been any Reimer/Bernier goals except maybe #1 last night ( except I think he was totally screened )

I'm a big Leo supporter but I wouldn't put him back in...he's looked a step behind since Will I Am KneeEnder ran into him....maybe even before that.

As much as I wish to agree with you, I just can't. I trust Babcock with a lot of things, but using (or not using) Komarov is quite flatly not one of them..

Almost the whole team has lacked the extra effort, but to exclude Andersen from that is unjust. He shoulders the blame for playing like poop just like the rest of the team, save Marner and Rielly.

i just don't think you put your 2nd best all-around forward on the 4th line.

just sit JV-Brown-Moore

in: Kadri - Komarov - Martin

leafs need some guys that can forecheck

can't take Johnsson out, nor Kapanen - both have earned to stay in lineup

Bostonians are very enamored by this line.

Kadri? If Komarov stays out like he should, Johnsson - Kadri - Kap should be the third line and should see more minutes than the Bozak line.

Martin can't be any worse then some of the wingers we have floating around out there.

Yes he can. I don't give a (frank) if we're being out hit. We need to outscore Boston and that won't happen if you take out guys like JVR (soft as babypoop or not) and add in Martin. It solves nothing and just puts more pressure on other guys to be expected to produce offense.

I like Babs calling out Matthews and Nylander a bit, the team begins and ends with the big 3 and Marner has been unreal.

kadri is a very good 2c. he gets his spot back.

i guess i'd be fine with johnsson-pleks-kap getting more minutes than the bozak line. those guys have just really struggled to convert on their chances.

Any chance Plek plays with kadri on the wing and thaats what they matchup against Pasta/Marchand?

Kadri is great, I agree, that's why I'd rather him center the "4th" line. It spreads out the offense and turns 2 good scoring lines into 3. Hypothetically, anyway.

you won't get that matchup in boston.

the bold move is putting pleks/kadri on matthews wing imo.
