I'll reserve judgment on Laviolette's lineup until I see it, but I don't expect to be impressed. If at least two of Rinaldo, Sestito, and Shelley don't get to play, I hope the Leafs take runs at EVERYONE, even the trainer Jim McCrossin.

Orr vs Shelley is about as close to a lock as you can get in the new NHL. Shelley will want to make an impact now that he's finally back in the lineup and Orr is probably still looking for revenge.

Maybe Mr. Concussion won't get dropped by Shelly again.

Sestito is out.

The game could be a gigantic let down. Orr and Shelly go early in the first, and then a snooze fest due to the refs. How often does a hyped up game actually happen? Rarely.

Would be heart breaking of Shelly drops Orr, Orr is out, and Shelly goes back to the press box.

Spot on there, as that's usually what happens, though Toronto and Philly have had some spirited games and playoff series in the past. Even if it isn't a brawl filled old-school type of Flyers/Leafs game of the past, I could still see a few scraps besides Shelley/Orr. Each team has several guys who will go, so besides the obvious guys listed for each team who will scrap, maybe we could see a few surprises.

Imo That fight is really what started Orrs demise. He was starting to fight that stupid duck in chuck style that is suited for the taller guys. He was sloppy and shelley made him pay big time. Look for Orr to get inside at some point and make Shelley fight his fight with fury!!!!

Shelly's a smart vet who is hard to hit but you would think at 37 he may a bit rusty. He's still dangerous though.

No way Orrs letting mclearn take this one.

I'd like to see Schenn fight his old team, hopefully he pounds Goof.

Even if we only get shelley vs orr. Atleast we get that, which I think will be a pretty good one.

Per NHL.com...Shelley is listed as 6'3" 225lbs, and Orr 6'3" 222lbs. They're the same size.
