Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Morgan Rielly had been a healthy scratch
for three consecutive games last week, at which point it seemed that a
trip to the World Juniors was all but certain. And then he was
reinserted back into the lineup for four straight games, predictably
quieting the assumption.
Leafs coach Randy Carlyle made clear, though, after Mondays game - in
which Rielly scored his first career NHL goal - that a final decision
had not yet been reached on whether to send Rielly to Sweden.
"Were going to have a tough decision here coming thats for sure," he
said.
Be it Carlyle, Dave Nonis or any member of the management team, the
Leafs have stressed that theyll do whats best for the long-term
development of their prized rookie defender. But that assertion
typically included the caveat that Rielly would remain in the NHL if he
was playing regularly and contributing.
"We feel that he can play here and make a contribution," said Carlyle,
questioned on the subject on Dec. 2.
The decision will come soon. Canada plays its first pre-tournament game
on Friday.

The game was all punts and field goals before Kodi Whitfields
catch.Final score of last years Grey Cup: Saskatchewan 45, Hamilton 23.
What a disaster right? No, far from it.
I thought last year for the Tiger-Cats was an immense success, not the
ultimate success, but immense in my evaluation. Ending the season at
10-8 was the first time the Ticats had a 10 win season since 2001.
Getting 10 wins has a psychological comfort about it in that it means
you are not great but by no means are you a disaster. And then you
consider in support of those 10 wins the team made it to the Grey Cup,
first time since 1999, the 45-23 loss has to be put into rational
perspective against the season.
The Ticats had a good season last year, a type that leads to the
inevitable feeling of impending improvement. Consider playing the season
basically on the road at University of Guelph.
To be clear, that city receives my praise for embracing the Ticats with
both arms and not letting go. All adversity considered, we all thank
them for what they did both on and off the field. Sure, I am positive
the revenue they received enhances the quality of what it was invested
in, but my attitude is "thank you for being there." If not for you, not
sure what the league could do.
But, this year could be different with the building of Tim Hortons
Field. I live about 15 minutes away and have keep my eye on its progress
month after month. It is coming, may not yet be 100 per cent ready, but
its mold gives me a feeling that this could be unique. A home field
advantage could finally be a tangible aspect of winning football.
What needs to improve? Well, like all teams there is always room. First
and most importantly, continuity of personnel. Hamilton went through 57
different starters over the course of the year; some due to injury but
also some due to simple evaluation of whether this player can play
productively and consistently. Given those two factors, this year cant
be another 57 player year; way too many.
Also a 1-4 start is hard to overcome. I always hear about how the real
CFL season doesnt start until September and it is a false observational
claim. Toronto finished 11-7, Hamilton 10-8; if their 1-4 start was 3-2
or 4-1, the Ticats could have been a first place team in the East.
Improvement points are everywhere though when you look at the overall
statistical package. Finishing eighth in protecting the quarterback and
eighth in getting to the quarterback has to improve and will. Improviing
on their only 14 interceptions is also a priority when you compare that
to Montreals 27.dddddddddddd Red zone offense was just sixth best, as
was red zone defence. Point being Hamiltons 10 wins were done the hard
way, not the dominate way.
Major point of optimism? Ticats finished second best in total yards,
averaging 373 a game. Which brings us to the most important names in
priority of performance: Zach Collaros, Dan LeFevour or maybe even
Jeremiah Masoli.
That battle through training camp will be entertaining and interesting.
Entertaining in that all three are good athletes that can adapt
exceptionally well when the situation regresses. Interesting in that
Kent Austin will give the job to the guy who is the smartest under
stress; a quality not always recognizable from the outside looking in.
When you play a position in football you truly know the position because
you have played it under pressure. I know the left tackle position. I
can recognize a good one, an average one, and everything in between very
quickly.
The exact same can be said for Austin as a quarterback. Whichever player
can take the pressure Austin puts on him - and he will - and respond,
will be the starter. When you have played the position you know the
position and the Hamilton Tiger cats are fortunate their head coach is a
former successful CFL quarterback.
Now as much as quarterback is the man in football, Hamiltons second best
move this off-season was getting Justin Medlock back as kicker, punter
and kickoff specialist. He was an 89 per cent kicker and 41
yards-per-punt punter. So many CFL games come down to a kick or a moment
the kicker can control. Getting Medlock back is a big deal in the world
of off-season football moves.
Interesting time if youre a Hamilton Tiger-Cats fan. A 20-year agreement
with a new stadium, a team that knows how to win through experience and
yet still has a lot to improve upon. It will be entertaining and
interesting to see how the new season unfolds.
Entertaining as a new era of football begins in the exact physical area
of history and respect. And interesting in that given the avoidance of
injury disaster, this is a team that should progress on many fronts. I
will miss Ivor Wynne, it was a big part of my childhood. But I will
embrace Tim Hortons Field as it becomes part of my adulthood. Everything
changes, but this may be easier to adapt and enjoy than anticipated.
