The revolving door is getting a workout with the defence as Ron Hainsey and Roman Polak are sick — Polak is so sick he’s on IR — and Justin Holl is making his NHL debut to fill in.
Nikita Zaitsev is back, and, Leafs, maybe just don’t take any penalties. They have Zaitsev for PK and...er...uh...well, we’ll see who else plays.
This game could be a disaster, or it could be a chance for the forwards to take ownership of the ice. Score early, score often!
In the Sportsnet opener, it seems the word is not out on Justin “sounds like Hall” Holl.
