Bro you cant scartch Kerfoot Come on now

Here are better lines

Foligno-Matthews-Marner
Kerfoot-Tavares-Nylander
Hyman-Nash-Mikheyev
Thorton-Spezza-Simmonds

Also Bogo might come back so put him in and scratch Dermott

Scratching Kerfoot over like 5 guys who are worse than him is a choice

How many times you gonna post this?

I understand that Nash has really good shut down numbers, but doesn't he also have zero offensive upside? He hasn't played a single game with the Leafs yet and we're going to slot him in at 3c?

Also Sandin on 1st pairing is hilarious. He's looked great but small sample size. Talk about a great way to ruin a kids development.

keefe wants to make a shutdown line and it does make sense

If leafs go to r2 and are up against Mcdavid and Drasaitl

Kerfoot-Nash-Mikheyev
Muzzin-Holl

will be tasked with shutting them down as if you shutdown those two Edmonton often has trouble generating offense.

Just look at the 2 shutouts we got against the Oilers. Mcdavid and Draisaitl were given no room to work

yeah

Kerfoot has looked good, he generates a ton of chances and while his offense has dropped he still provides good defense. I find it funny how he and mikheyev have everything going for them but one thing, finishing. Kapenan had that exact same problem till he went to Pittsburgh lul. If they practiced in the offseason man would those 2 be deadly both 5 on 5 and short handed.

Watching Mikheyev last night. Even if his scoring isn't as much as we'd like given the chances he helps create, like man if he could learn to hit or be even just a tad physical, it would be really helpful.
