How it genuinely feels to get to watch Easton Cowan play Leafs hockey:

Best case scenario is they play well, get a big lead against a bad team and give Mckenna some shifts on the first line and PP1 later in the game.

u/Dear-Pineapple-3070 3h ago

just give mckenna more shifts lol, hiller been restricting his ass.

u/Ok_Elevator4215 3h ago

I'd love that but we both know that isn't happening without something like I wrote happening first

u/Dear-Pineapple-3070 3h ago

idk i’d rather not change that first line but i’d have him on PP1 for sure.

I think you have to do something about the 2nd. Either Mckenna up or put Nylander back with Mathews and let Marchenko drive line 2.

u/Dear-Pineapple-3070 3h ago

i guess we will have to see if hiller changes anything

We’ve had a pretty good tracker record at home versus Nashville last couple years, let’s hope it holds true. Tough road trip coming up.

(Edit: in the Matthews era the leafs are 7-1 at home against Nashville)

u/Drew_You_To_91 Knies 2h ago

I wish I had an impact on this team’s outcomes lol

u/SpiritedWardrobe65 3h ago

Bob's numbers make me sweat a little but you're right about home ice, we usually bully them here.

u/Drew_You_To_91 Knies 3h ago

I just want an offensive explosion for the leafs, even an ugly 6-5 win is fine with me.
