Saturday Morning HDIC Links
Share

Not a bad day to be snowed in, with a full lineup of all-Canadian hockey on television. Peterborough is hosting Hockey Day and I may brave the conditions to check out the scene on the Trent Canal.

The road warrior Toronto Maple Leafs (5-1 away) look to replicate their success in the season opener at the Bell Centre tonight. The Leafs should expect a stiffer test as the Habs have gone 6-2-1 since looking awful in that opener and are no longer sans Subban. The two teams are a point apart sitting sixth and seventh in the Eastern Conference standings.

A few quick links this morning…

Korbinian Holzer impressing teammates and coaches
Carlyle leaned on Holzer for 23:41 and gave Liles over 20 minutes in the Leafs’ 3-2 win over Winnipeg. Kostka dipped below 20 minutes.

Leafs-Habs preview from NHL.com

Phaneuf knows his numbers are offensive
Dion needs to be part of the solution on the PP and the points will come. Thought he played an excellent game vs. Winnipeg.

    Leafs need to have a mix of youth and the PROPER experience.

    Great to hear good news on Gards…they should let him string together at least three good games.

    I agree with this…just doesn’t work unless with JVR and someone else. Him and Kessel spell disaster, 2 completely different styles that don’t mesh.

    No man I am saying a team needs to be bulit on a mix look at EDM they have all these young superstars but if they do nothing to insulated them like those teams did nothing to insulate their young high draft picks it will get you no where

     I agree but it’s gotta be the right vets. Leafs lack the right vets badly.

    If you would read, rather then comment, you would see in the last three years that you have changed your opinions on players more then anyone on this site. Just because you post a lot you think you are smarter then everyone else. Watch out you are going to swallow your head some day.

    yes hated them because of how they were cast on a team at a specific time. They did not put the teams together they never said they were the second coming of orr.

    just the right or wrong leadership. I think you gotta trust the coach/gm when they bring guys in and give them A’s and C’s

    One question, have you ever played hockey? If so, what was your highest level?

    Leafs should trade Kessel for Corey Perry. Leafs get a great Ontario born winger and the ducks don’t loose him for nothing. Then Getz signs as free agent. Kessel goes to quiet hockey market and plays well for the ducks.

    Agreed. Does that mean that one of Bozak, Kadri, Colborne, or McClement is the answer for the proper experience?
