LGD: Brick City Mashin’

Good evening sports fans. Are you ready for the exciting matchup of the two teams battling to see who can hold the 7.5% lottery odds for the first overall draft pick. 
While the Devils look like strong contenders with their usage of Scott Gomez as a top six center, their tendency to move Steve Bernier up in their line-up and the fact that they will dress Mark Fraser, the Leafs still have to be the heavy favourites.
The Leafs high point of the past four weeks was picking up a point in a shootout loss to these very Devils. Of course now that the Leafs have dropped ten straight we’re entering that “they have to win again sometime territory.” Odds are tonight against the Devils or tomorrow night against the Oilers are the best bets of when that will happen.

The Leafs

Unless there’s a trade between now and game time here’s the lineup you’ve relied on to fuel your drinking.

The Devils

Looking at the roster below I remain confused by how many people predicted the Devils would be a playoff team this season. The only thing they seem to have going for them is that they don’t have David Clarkson.

VS.


What to Watch For

  • A better game on Gamecenter
  • Confusion over how Korbinian Holzer has trade value
  • Scott Gomez looking as awful as ever
  • Seriously, watch Anaheim vs. Washington it will be a much better game
  • Whether this losing streak goes to 11.
