An underrated storyline of the new forward lines is that Justin Holl is back in the lineup after a bout with COVID-19. After a few games of Sandin and Liljegren together, Liljegren goes back to the third pair with Holl playing next to Sandin tonight. Let’s see how that goes.
I’m curious to see how Holl does with Sandin on the second pair tonight, because Holl’s performance over this next month will influence to some degree what the Leafs will do at the trade deadline. If Holl plays well even without Muzzin, one could argue most incoming defensemen would have marginal or even no impact on improving the roster.
