If you’ve been keeping tabs the last month or so, it’s clear the Leafs are performing below their potential. While the team’s offence hasn’t been great, they’ve also suffered from a rather… uninspiring defensive effort.
So if you wanted to shake things up a little bit, what would you do in terms of setting up the Leafs defensive pairings?
Last night, the lineup consisted of
Rielly-Hainsey
Gardiner-Carrick
Gardiner-Carrick
Dermott-Polak,
with Andreas Borgman sitting out.
Would you stick with the status quo and hope things get better?
Fire Roman Polak into the sun? Play Connor Carrick on the top line? Put four forwards out and leave Morgan Rielly by himself? Call up Calle Rosen? Force Mike Babcock to play himself? Play Jake Gardiner only in penalty kill situations and on the power play? Give Travis Dermott the captaincy and hope he can run with it?
