Cody Franson, Jake Gardiner, and Nazem Kadri were among the few Leafs who really stood out in tonight's pre-season 5-2 loss to Detroit. More kids will be in the lineup tomorrow at the ACC, for both teams, and with a job or two still on the line, could be fun.
Gardiner assisted on both Leaf goals, by Kadri and Joffrey Lupul. Play was mostly uninspired, with both teams looking to stay healthy, though Detroit's power play was unsolvable by the usually stellar Toronto penalty killers. The Red Wings tallied three extra-man markers, versus only one the Buds gave up during the first six exhibitions.
Tuesday in Montreal the real deal begins, then the next night in Philly. I'm looking for Reimer to start in Montreal, and Bernier in Philadelphia.
