Well, that was fun. Needed one to go this way.

A new report coming out states that the Toronto franchise is changing their name from 'Leafs' to Chokers to more accurately represent the hockey club.

Thanks for sharing.

Leafs didn't choke, the CBJ played well to steal that game... They have Babcock behind the bench and won't forget this one..

 

[Maylo]

Won 3 from last 4, playing with half Ahl roster. Can't complain the way they win.

 

[ReggieRed]

THAT FEELING WHEN THE JACKETS ABSOLUTELY STEAL TWO POINTS.

And I loved how Torts was giving high fives to the team as they were heading towards the dressing room!

Watching the replays, that was an UNREAL pass by Zach to Bread on the GWG

The puck actually went off Panarins skate but he was quick as lightning to get the tip of his stick on the puck off his skate.... huge goal..

 

[KJ Dangler]

Interesting that the team can put up goals , when they get out of their system, and just play aggressive hockey

Fun indeed..... With a roster missing four starters this was a huge comeback.... The experience some of the subs are getting will pay off as the season rolls into April...

CBJ usually beat Leafs. Probably be OT though this time due to CBJ injuries. 4-3 Panarin, Panarin, Werenski and Anderson

I thought a couple more goals would be scored...I'll take 3-2 though

This team ****ing sucks

Your posts......

This team was never good enough. Look at the Leafs. Look at Tampa Bay. Completely different level of play.

Well, I guess it's good enough if one has traditional CBJ standards .

CBJ have owned the Leafs since moving East. Tampa just got things going this year and are better than everyone right now. Maybe it's your standards?

Bread is so valuable in OT and SO. What a luxury to have a difference-maker like that.

A lot of people said that’s what the Jackets lacked in the Pens series...difference maker.
We finally got one

Panarin has quickly become one of my favorite players. Love watching him.

 

[Bobcat110]

Just picked up Glass Seats for game in Buffalo on Thursday for $50 each.

I'm actually quite shocked. I honestly couldn't imagine anyone who could score. But score they did. This is another ugly win and what a big two points that was.

I don't read the GDT much anymore during the game and don't post much either (only during intermissions) because it honestly makes watching the game less enjoyable. The nitpicking becomes unbearable.

My daughter and I always text during the games and we text some of the same frustrations mentioned in the GDT but somehow it feels less ruthless and it makes watching the game much more enjoyable.

 

[Robert]

Postgame... Torts is in love with Debois... Had to be reminded that Schroeder scored the first goal... lol

 

[Maylo]

Anyone see Seth Jones' backhand toey in between 3 Leafs players? Kids unreal

If anyone has a vid/gif of that please share

Not a gif. Full OTT. Jones move starts at 1:18

 

[Robert]

Sabres are struggling but they have Eichel and are tired of getting beat by the Jackets over the last decade... It will be a tough game... Go Jackets!!!!!!!!!

 

[Maylo]

PLD always plays good in Canada, that set up for Sedsy goal with Peg, goal vs Montreal, goal vs Toronto.

 

[Jaxs]

Bread is so valuable in OT and SO. What a luxury to have a difference-maker like that.

No doubt. For so many years we had to watch guys like Bread do that to us. What a treat to watch.

No surprise here. Jack Johnson with the worst CF% at 5v5 tonight, out of all defensemen.

In an ideal world, I’d love to claim Cody Franson and trade JJ. It would be a huge upgrade.

That's kind of a "triumph of misused statistics over reality" approach, there. Franson's CF% ends up looking disproportionately good because he's a sheltered specialist - he's good at what little he does, but that's all he should ever be trusted to do. Put him in a multipurpose role and he will haunt your dreams. And on this team, we need blueliners to be multipurpose personnel.

Dang, they pulled it off. That was an incredibly gutsy win. I guess that is how they have to do it with the roster they have now.

 

[CBJx614]

Wow..... After 50 minutes with no goals I thought here we go again, but I will say they played with energy during those 50 minutes... Then, two goals within 2 minutes and a stunning OT (ROW) winner by Bread!!!

#14 Schroeder is a keeper folks, that guy has speed... And Dubois is at 10 goals in his second year... Awesome win!!!!!! Huge...

And, the CBJ own 3x3, they ruled the ice during OT... Bob did make a great save too!!

Draft +2. Technically it's his first professional season.

PLD went 11/19(58%) tonight, but didn't face Matthews once. 18:32 TOI

Jenner went 13/22(59%) and went 6/9 against Matthews. 17:02 TOI

 

[spintheblackcircle]

7 of Panarin's 11 goals have been game winners. Pretty phenomenal rate.

 

[cbjfaninmo]

This team. Hopefully, they get a big boost from this one. Huge win.
