According to Chris Johnston and Jonas Siegel, Matthews is unlikely to play. Just need one more huge effort to win the game and the series for AM34! Game 7 Let’s gooo!

UPDATE: Stop the presses! Chris Johnston is now reporting, citing “sources” that Auston Matthews is “a good bet to return” in game 7. I’ll update the roster when we learn more (done!). CONFIRMED

Update 2: Woll is out. Sammy backed up by Jones tonight.

    If Matthews is back, I hope he slots in as 3C since he likely isn’t 100%.

    Holmberg to the wing, Gregor sits. That line’s been trash anyway. That’ll give the Bruins a serious headache for defending.

    Friedman just suggested Sammy might be starting… Welp, goodnight, guys!

      Saw that. It seems to be based entirely on all the goalies riding the bus together? Seems weak to me.

            Nah, I think they just need to play as well in front of Sammy as they have Woll. Fingers crossed, at least.

      I’ll eat my words if Sammy pulls this one off!

        It IS early. And Boston’s playing hungry, unlike the last 2 games

    I don’t want to go shot for shot on penalties with Boston, given the effectiveness of our PP so far (Edit: these last two penalty calls are soft)

      Definitely hoping for 5-on-5. That Leafs powerplay had like 5 shots though. I’d describe it as “not embarassing”, which is a huge improvement! ;)
