There are hockey players wearing Leafs jerseys playing hockey this weekend! WOOOO! Hockey is back!
OK, maybe not exactly, but it's close enough to get hyped about. The Leafs rookies are in Montreal to play two games, Saturday and Sunday, both at 1:00 p.m. ET. The games will be streamed on YouTube on the Habs channel and we can even have a GDT where you can share all your wildest opinions on players who won't make the team!
The Leafs roster is out here, however we now know new draft pick Ben Danford will not participate after being injured in a scrimmage earlier this week.

Unfortunately, there was also some sad news from the Leafs.

The nerds are taking over.
It looks like #NYR made a really cool hire. Dave MacPherson has been added to the scouting staff.

MacPherson is a data guy who developed Pick224, which was a really useful data website for hockey prospects and the NHL Draft.
Matt Martin, still playing at 35.
