Despite the wishes of many Leaf fans, Holl is probably a little too useful as a rush defender and on the penalty kill to being a healthy scratch for long stretches. He has played in 66 of the Leafs' 68 games this season. In that time, he has recorded 2 goals, 14 points, 127 hits and 116 blocked shots, while averaging 20 minutes and 33 seconds of ice time per game. As far as who will be coming out of the lineup on the blueline, this is purely speculative, but I'd imagine that
Erik Gustafsson and
Timothy Liljegren will sit this one out, with Schenn coming in to face a rough, gritty young Sens team that contains the likes of
Brady Tkachuk and this season's PIMs leader,
Austin Watson.
