We’re not going to get into in-depth game/team commentary until the group is pared down and the roster starts to take shape, but here are some player notes.
– Joffrey Lupul certainly wasn’t going through the motions in game one of preseason, as he was engaged from puck drop. He drew the penalty that got the Leafs on the board late in the first by going hard to the net and earning a cross-checking call off Max McCormick.
