Toronto Maple Leafs shuffle lines ahead of rematch vs. Florida Panthers



The Toronto Maple Leafs did some shuffling at practice as the team go on their first road trip of the season. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti look through the adjustments made by Sheldon Keefe at practice starting with the defensive pairings getting changed and why it was a welcomed response to the first few games of the season. Mike and Dave then focus on the moves made with the forward lines specifically the impact it’ll have on Matthews Knies and what to make of Fraser Minten’s start to the season. To end the show, Mike and Dave preview the matchup against the Florida Panthers who still remain a formidable opponent despite some injuries to their blue line.

    It didn't surprise me Keefe had chosen to shuffle various lines for a then-upcoming practice he was going to make the Leafs go through. After all the Leafs:
    – going back to last preseason, have gone 6 straight games without having allowed under 3 goals
    – for 4 straight games have allowed @ least 4 goals

    Will whatever line-juggling Keefe has done trigger a sufficient response for a win over the Panthers? Although I'm concerned the Laughs will end their game with the Panthers with a loss, perhaps the line-juggling will send a message that this isn't Kyle Dubas's house anymore, but a house of accountability run by Brad Treliving on down.

    I like cards & my birthday is next Tuesday when we host the Capitals…. I hope to hear 50 mission cap as the goal song for my special day….

    The Leafs need a true number one shutdown D. A big mean guy. Until they get it they are moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    Knies on the Tavares line, JT could certainly use the help defensively. The danger is Knies starts picking up Nylander's lazy defensive habits.

    Domi Minten Jarnkrok. Well, I guess we will find out.

    Minten, let him play the nine games and then decide. There is lots of time yet.
