Toronto Maple Leafs vs Ottawa Senators Game 1🔴Full Game Live Stream🔴24th September 2022 l Reaction
18Welcome to the first day of Leafs hockey in 2022-23. The Leafs are playing two games against the Senators, the first game at 1pm and the second at 7pm. Both games are happening at Scotiabank Arena.
This is a split-squad day with Tavares, Marner, Nylander and co playing at 1pm, with Matthews, Rielly, and others at 7pm. Game 1 is on Sportsnet Ontario locally, Game 2 is on Sportsnet One nationally.
The Leafs have been skating with more-or-less the same groups this week to start preseason so I’ve pieced together what should be the lines for both games.
In terms of the goalies, Källgren and Samsonov will each play 40 minutes, with Ferguson and Petruzzelli swapping for the third period.
Adam Gaudette immediately jumps out as a player to watch as he’s getting the first chance with Tavares and Marner to be in the top six. Denis Malgin is right there as well playing with Nylander. I also wonder how much they’re looking at Pontus Holmberg, who seems ready in every way but hasn’t been talked about for the promotion.
Sheldon Keefe is also doing a systems check on Zach Aston-Reese and David Kämpf to see if a black hole will form around them. Joey Anderson will have to be the reaction limiter there. Fraser Minten will get his first NHL preseason game before heading back to the WHL, according to people in that sphere.
In the other lineup, Järnkrok is going to play with Matthews and Bunting in another audition for the top-six. I think this is mostly a chance to see if Järnkrok can pull off the rust from last season and go back to the level he had before playing in Seattle. We’ll see what Nick Robertson can do compared against Aubé-Kubel; Kerfoot is a nice foil to have for both of them.
Without Sandin, Muzzin, or Liljegren skating at training camp, there’s nothing to really think about on defense. Rielly, Brodie, Gio, and Holl are locks and there’s not much chance to fiddle with pairings. And in net, Matt Murray will get today off, but we’ll most likely see him Wednesday against Montreal.
Former Leafs Nikita Zaitsev and Kristians Rubins are playing in the 1pm game for Ottawa. Their notable players are Tim Stützle, Alex DeBrincat, Claude Giroux, and prospect Jake Sanderson. Josh Norris, Brady Tkachuk, Thomas Chabot, and probably the worst first round pick in recent memory Tyler Boucher are in the 7pm game.
