Half-Assed GDT: Bozak is back in Toronto

[BlueKnight]

This team is so Jekyll and Hyde

 

[Robb_K]

What looks like a dominating score was a tough, close game, for the most part. But, I'm glad that The Blues found renewed energy to compete in The 3rd, and were able to win the game going away.

Toronto is built the same way every single year. They are a great regular season team but I think Dubas is missing the mark on making the necessary changes. That’s a soft team. If things get physical in the playoffs, who besides Wayne Simmonds is able to push back?

think they got Nick Ritchie for that but....

to quote Bob Ueker... swing.. and a miss

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

As soft as everyone thinks Crosby is I'm pretty sure he could bully the leafs by himself.

if he puts a brick in his purse... sure

sorry.. like syd the person and very talented player.. but can't take what he dishes out and man, does he go crying to the refs

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

now ya just wait for the inevitable "who needs Vladi" posts because of one game

 

[Robb_K]

Mikkola is a pleasant surprise this year. If he played for the us the next 10 years, I wouldn’t complain. He keeps getting better and better.

He keeps on improving, stepping up his physical game big time, jumping up into the play to help our forwards in The O-Zone, now also driving the net, and now making some good, strong shots. He's miles better, now, than he was last season. But, he still has spells of succumbing to forecheck pressure, and making ill-advised or just weak, inaccurate passes, or losing the puck to poke checkers. Once he cleans that up, he'll be a VERY solid 2nd pairing D-man.

I don't think I can deal with that fanbase more than twice a season.

I am partial to beating up on the leafs! My first playoff game I got so see Gretzky feed Hull for the winner in that series!

The internet was to new to properly rejoice in Leaf Tears!

I'd rather play the Hawks 20 games a season than have to deal with the Tor fanbase more than 2 times a year.

I'm not blaming Husso for any of those goals, I am calling out douche bags like you for hypocrisy. You'll whine like a baby if Binnington gives up that identical goal but are oddly silent when Husso does.

Husso made several great saves, plus a lot of really good saves in this game. Had he just played average (which is better than Binnington has played in his last 4-5 games), The Leafs probably would have gotten ahead by a few goals in The 2nd, and the entire direction of the game would have gone differently. From how I see it, based on how both have played over the past month, had Binnington played this game, The Blues probably would have lost.

Nice victory. Bunting gives me big Dustin Brown vibes.

 

[CraftyVeteran]

came for the Binner apology tour to justify a Blues win with husso in net yet again. i was not disappointed.

 

[CraftyVeteran]

Loosso

*checks* yep, another Husso win. Another whiner crying into his keyboard.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

Huh?

LOL

that’s weird

Hey everybody! Don’t give Crappy Veteran a weapon. He will miss.

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

just read thru the TOR GDT

wow.. hard to read actually.. some sane folks but LOTS of whining about TOR not getting calls (league based conspiracy against them..lol) and trashing their goalie, when they should have been trashing their defense.. or the mgmt team that built them to do nothing but score goals and not prevent them

inconsistent or not, ya gotta tip your hat to Army for the depth this team has

The people I am referring to date back to a lot longer than 4 -5 games.

Same old from someone that really has no idea what they're talking about. lol

Right! It was such weird post that had nothing to do with the silly Binner vs Husso “debate”.

It was simply one more of my goofy jokes right after Husso apparently gave up a softie.

Loosso as in Loose Husso.

Tighten up Ville!

Too bad Crappy Veteran has a poor shot.

I’m still laughing. I think my feelings were supposed to be hurt.

Canuck and Maple Leaf fans are the worst of the worst IMO. I'd put Shark and Avalanche fans up there with them from the US side though.

Its why I get so much glee every spring when they find a new way to exit in the first round lol. Or in Vancouver's case missing the playoffs entirely.

I did not watch the game but the boxscore shows Husso played well, which is all that really matters.

 

[Puck Luck]

These goalie arguments remind me of the good old days of Allen vs Elliott. Both sides are dug in

i just hope the Blues don’t jerk Husso around like they did Elliott. I always thought they did him wrong when he was here

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Good game. Watched the last period at a Mexican restaurant drinking margaritas.

Strong finish.

I don't think Berube would let that happen.

Husso’s going to be one of the more highly sought after free agents this summer. Curious to see if any team is willing to hitch their wagon to him and give him a starter’s contract. Edmonton? San Jose(do they have the cap?) God forbid Colorado if Kuemper walks?

 

[Joshuar56]

“He’s out tonight,” said Berube, who was tight-lipped about the situation.

Standard answer .... or big trouble??

He finished the game so I doubt it's something big. Definitely wouldn't have finished the game if it was the shoulder.

We'll have to see how he sustains his play. If he keeps this up then someone is gonna throw the money bags at him. I hope the Blues can keep him though.
