[GDT/UPDATE: Game(s) Postponed] December 18, 2021 Toronto Maple Leafs (20-8-2) @ Vancouver Canucks (14-15-2) at 4:00 pm on SportsNet TV and Radio 650

I'm thinking if the NHL doesn't cancel this game, then their goal is for the Canucks streak to be broken and for the Leafs to win on Saturday night in prime time.

Didn’t Myers have it last year too? That doesn’t seem to mean much with the new variant.

Beagle had it last year too, think Motte did too.

I thought sautner didn’t have an NHL contract.

At this point Hughes must be thinking what the actual &^@#. He should be given Schenn, Hunts, Myers and Hamonic's game cheques for tonight.

Well the Leafs isnt missing 60% of the D core... IF they were without most of their C or top FW it would be fairer... Missing a few here and there should be easier

Two (maybe two and a half if you consider Burroughs a fringe NHL’er) legit NHL defencemen in our lineup tonight.

 

it’s actually surreal to look at that D-core.

Yeah I'm going with 2.5 

[DrJockitch]

If it wasn’t prime time and the Leafs it would be cancelled. 

[combover]

The integrity of the games are compromised.

 

we have two nhl dmen in the line up. player safety clearly isn’t a concern of the league. 

we have added atleast one player to protocol everyday for the past 4 days. 
I’d say  all games should be canceled till after the Christmas break so these guys can stay or get heathy and spend time with there families. 

 

Is nhl just waiting till all the teams are like the flames?

I think Burroughs is a good number 6 D. 2.5 or three

They are missing Tavares, Marner, Kerfoot, Simmonds, Spezza. 
 

 

 So yea... they’re missing 3 of their 4 centres. Plus the RW on their top line.
