Mike Augello: O’Reilly On The Mend; Leafs Vs. Hurricanes

First

And Ek forget to pay the bill or what there?!

Hopefully coming off a solid Panthers game they show some consistency and have another good one. Will see

Who could have seen this coming???

They should have traded for Laine.

For a guy who doesn’t play a physical game he does get hurt alot.

What's with Gusto and personal reasons?

Nice to see ROR nearing a return. I'm hoping this extra time off allows him to rejuvenate and be high energy for a deep run.

As much as the JT/ROR/Marner line looks amazing, I sure hope to see ROR at 3C in the playoffs.

Jarnkrok Matthews Nylander
Bunting JT Marner
Knies ROR Acciari
ZAR/Kerfoot Kampf Lafferty

That's a pretty deep lineup. If Knies can't fill the need, then move Kerfoot to 3LW.

Hedman slew footed him.

Can't blame him for this dirty garbage, that Parros, in his infinite wisdom, somehow missed.

Should have traded 3 firsts and Nylander for him

What’s your thought on only 1 game suspension for AJ Grier for that crosscheck to the face on Hoffman?

Had that happen to me in Jr broke 2 of my teeth.

I’m noticing Knies isn’t getting too much talk after Minnesota won 9-2 without him getting a single point. So good on ya for still openly believing.

Still believe myself that thinking he’s a guaranteed forward on a cup contender is a bit much but it could still happen, 50/50 to me.

For me I think perhaps he gets in but line 4. They will limit him out there especially if its playoffs.

Sounds good. 1 is a joke on clearly an intentional head shot. Shakes my head.

It’s a huge jump to make. Might be on the roster but not play unless injuries.

It really is. NCAA to the NHL skipping the AHL - and really playing in the playoffs, so it's the NHL in overdrive.

He has the physical size, but does he have the speed, the read and the feel for the game at this level without being a liability out there? I'm skeptical.

If he can do it, it's pennies from Heaven - but the Leafs have other depth options who are at least acclimated to the NHL game.

I was listening to Scott wheeler on leafs lunch the other day and he was saying that knies could slide in right away. He said he could even play 4th line because of his size and physical maturity if he wasn’t ready to step into the 2nd line lw but basically said he’s still an upgrade on Aston-Reese.

Who knows, I haven’t really seen him play but it would be nice to see him in an nhl game to see where we’re at.

Why would you guys keep sending out the Santo signal

Bang on. 👍

On another note where is everyone?
Seems scarce of peeps in here.

Watching Tampa at Boston . . .I mean, I don't want Tampa to win, but I would also like Boston to lose. Tampa has a 5 on 3 with lots of lane options and just overpasses the puck until they make a mistake. They look like a team that wants to lose at the moment.

Insane. Especially since they always talk about the injury factor. Just look at Hoffman's face. He got (frank)ing annihilated.

Parros has proven time and time again that he not only has no idea what he's doing, but also has absolutely no consistency in doing it.

An audition might be ok but why the rush? It’s time to gel & get set for the PO’s not the time to experiment. Just my 2 bits unless the kid really impresses. 4th line I’d rather have more proven vets.
