Ducharme didn't want to confirm yet if Caufield had done enough to deserve a spot in in the lineup to start the playoffs... we'll see.

Did he confirm Staal will be in?

I don't think he'll play the first 2 games. we'll see after that.

no loll

Did he confirm Staal will be in?
- habs88888

no no. he won't confirm anything until game time of game 1.
but not having the last change, I doubt Caufield will play in TOR.
and I'm not sure kk will either tbh.

I find it's silly at this point to not have him in right away and wait after an injury or after losing a game or 2 to let him play, but oh well, perhaps you're right.

I like the kid, he 4 goals in 10 games, but these are the playoffs. who are you gonna take out? Byron? Lekhonen? Armia? I'm not even sure kk will play.

Caufield would still be more of an offensive threat than those guys right now... and I hope KK gets his poop together because he's the one that has been struggling the most among them

Tatar Danault Gallagher
Toffoli Suzuki Anderson
Byron Evans Lekhonen
Perry Staal Armia

if I had to bet on the opening lineup for game 1

Caufield doesn't get assists, he scores using someone else’s stick..

Chiarot Weber

Price Allen

it's a tough decision, and Caufield wouldn't be in the best position if you put him on that 4th instead of Armia... I guess I'd find him a spot on the 3rd or something, you want a guy like him around the net in the playoffs

I agree, but in MTL, not in TOR
and even then, who do you take out?

- AGalchenyuk27

and his shots often make goalies hesitate, compared to let's say a Lehkonen lol

I think you are right. Just more Perry-Staal-Armia Weber-Chariot running from side to side without touching the puck in the defensive zone for 3 consecutive minutes .

That 4th line will be very slow
