Please get Kaberle out of there, Pat Quinn. We need more big defencemen in there against Philly, not smaller, inconsistent, pass-happy, blueliners. Kaberle's occassional offensive output does not make up for his defensive gaffs. We can't have another Game like Thursday's if this series is going to go the distance.

Hopefully, Belak has learned his lesson and won't go whacking guys across the melon any more. We need his strength and physical presence to keep the crease clear for Eddie B.
Discuss.

Leafs in 7 - but there may no one left after that.

I've already posted to this effect, but I'll voice my agreement anyway.

ALTHOUGH, I'd sooner go with Berehowsky, a 20-minute plus regular defenseman all year with the Penguins, than Belak.

Anyway, Kaberle must go. He can't handle the play in this series. I like him a lot, at times, but this isn't his game.

Apparently, Quinn toyed with the idea of inserting Belak, though as a forward. Wilm played an effective game (except when Recchi blew by him and forced Reichel to haul him down for what turned out to be the game-winning power play - ugh).

Kaberle played a much better game, but his ice looked to be limited. Anyway, there wasn't as much pressure on the D in this game, as the rested forwards could carry much of the play in the Philly zone.
