Leonard in for Raddysh and McIlrath in for Roy tonight.
-
There’s a one hour pregame on the t v tonight. At 6:10 they showed tonight’s lines, per usual they are not the same as what’s reported in the skate shavings pregame article.
-
I’m curious if anyone knows how to categorize Roy tonight. The way I see it, he is technically a scratch as he’s not been put on IR/LTIR.
-
I'd assume "personal reasons" would classify as a healthy scratch?
-
Morning. :wackysmile:
-
This should be interesting.
-
Not very interesting so far.
-
PK time

Yea, but every time I’ve seen this the player is listed as out, not scratched.
-
Evenin Lil.
Lil sloppy to start, then settled in!
OVI!!!!!
Was that Leonard that lit someone up at center ice, after he gave the puck away? :snicker:

I don't think they showed Roy. They showed Leonard in for Raddish and had Rad as a healthy scratch.

I think one thing that Leonard demonstrated in his first game is that he is capable of playing a working man's hockey game.
-
Well Lenny certainly did not look lost or out of place...especially for a guy just dropped in with no practice with this squad.
I did notice him on the ice quite a bit, so that's generally a positive....making plays or at least being in the play. He certainly does appear to be a small 6'0, 200lbs. They weigh him with all his gear on? :snicker:
He's only 20, so I would think he will add 5-10 pounds muscle in coming years. He does play physical though.
-
Yep - he is definitely not that big. He is a decent bit smaller than Strome and he makes Protas look like a giant.

Ha - I thought the same when Stromer scored and they hugged up Stromer looked quite a bit more than 3" taller than Lenny
