Today was David Pastrnak's best practice of the series. Looked like himself again.

Montgomery: Brazeau and Forbort are “options” for Game 5.
Marchand and Heinen were off the ice for maintenance today.

Leave the lineup as is. Give Brazeau the extra time off. With JVRs emergence as a bit of a threat offensively (breakaway Game 3, post in Game 3, and goal in Game 4) no need to rush Brazeau in there at the moment I don't think.
Why even bother going to Forbort to be honest? We have been excellent defensively in this series and we have got great goaltending. The PK has been absolutely lights out. We don't need to force a dman in there that hasn't played in two months.
Details matter. Don't give the Leafs a fucking inch by making a stupid lineup change.

I’m surprised the Leafs stayed in Toronto, smart move would have gotten them out of there. They are being roasted on every form of media .

No Auston Matthews at Leafs practice today. I really get this feeling he isn't playing Game 5. They are saying illness but I thought he looked like total garbage to end the 2nd period in Game 4 (more like a LBI to me). When he missed practice earlier in the series they were using Dewar as a "placeholder" for Matthews during line rushes but now they have shuffled the 1st line completely putting Marner on the wing and Domi at centre. Guess we will find out tomorrow!

Nylander was miked up on Saturday’s game, I would like to hear the uncensored version That would be awesome. Luckily some of it was pretty clear from the lip reading: "Quit fucking crying bro" Some have said that was to Marner but I think it might have even been toward Matthews which is even better in my opinion!

I agree, I posted about Forborts return after last game..Our PK is doing great and I just dont see Forbort being better than who ever he replaces..He's been out a long time, it would take him a few games to get back into the groove of things and I just dont think its worthwhile..Go with what we have, Forborts been out too long and we're not talking about a big name player..He's a PK specialist BUT out PK is doing just fine, dont mess with a good thing!!

Guess we will find out tomorrow! I get the same sense from just reading between the lines today, I doubt he plays tomorrow. You’d think that the Leafs would just say lower body and leave it at that. Looks like a groin injury but definitely lower body not illness.

This extra day off again is invaluable to our 4 mid-thirties players. Marchand, Maroon, JVR and Shatty. Recovery just takes a little longer at that age.

This is a fireable offence
PP1: McAvoy, Marchand, Geekie, Coyle, DeBrusk PP2: Lohrei, Pastrnak, Heinen, Zacha, van Riemsdyk
With no Kevin Shattenkirk on PP2, Derek Forbort could be in tonight.

Auston Matthews has departed the session. Was on the ice for a few minutes…

Post by SeaBass on Apr 30, 2024 10:56:43 GMT -5
Derek Forbort, Kevin Shattenkirk, Jakub Lauko, and Linus Ullmark are still on the ice.
Indicates that Matt Grzelcyk is in tonight.

WTF is Monty doing? Shattenkirk time on ice: Game 1 - 14:03 Game 2 - 17:29 Game 3 - 10:05 Game 4 - 11:07 He went -1 in Game 3 and Game 4 (was on ice in Game 4 for the Marner goal). I do wonder if Shatty is banged up? Forbort had a brief conditioning stint in Providence and must look fresher to Monty? Forbort is bigger too but I don't really want him killing penalties...the PK has been great. They can't tinker with that IMO. If it is Grz in - I'm not thrilled lol I've seen enough of Grz.

Per TSN: "Matthews' status a doctor's call for Game 5"

I’d rather Matthews be in at this point, if he’s as good as he was the last two games I’ll take it. I want that guy everyday of the week and twice on Sunday.
