One of the veteran Maple Leafs had a question the other day, and it's not one I get often in the dressing room, I'll confess.
But it happens to be the question everyone around this group is anxious to know.
“So what do you think of our team this year?” he asked. “How's it look?”
Well… here goes.
The Leafs made their big cuts on Monday, leaving only one decision — Borgman or Rosen on the third D pair — prior to their season opener in Winnipeg. There were no huge surprises; this was more or less the roster we expected, save for Travis Dermott or Roman Polak potentially making the blueline and Eric Fehr possibly hitting waivers.
