Toronto Maple Leafs forward Nicholas Robertson will be in the lineup Sunday. His anticipated NHL debut was confirmed by Sheldon Keefe Saturday after practice. The former second-round pick has generated plenty of buzz this year, joining John Tavares on a very short list of OHL skaters who have finished a season scoring at a goal per game rate or better before turning 19. Robertson has been practicing on Toronto's third line with Alex Kerfoot and Kasperi Kapanen. While there is plenty of hype surrounding the sharpshooting Robertson's arrival, expectations should be tempered as he is expected to play outside of the top six and not see time on either power-play unit. The scoring ability is there, but the opportunity will need to be as well before he can flourish.--Russ Ivanac - RotoBallerRead More News
