The Leafs play the Red Wings at home tonight, and then in Detroit on Saturday. Today should be a lineup very close to the regular roster.

This was odd, as they just signed him this summer after some years in the KHL. I guess it didn't work out:

There are two RFAs left unsigned. Alexander Holtz in Vegas – he's mostly playing in the AHL at the moment – and Luke Evangelista in Nashville – that one makes no sense, and they should trade him if they aren't going to ever make a deal with him. 

Marlies training camp got underway: 

The prospects are back prospecting:

The game preview will be out later today for what is the last meaningful preseason contest.
