GDT: Leafs @ Capitals - 3/20/24 7:30 EST on SN - Here we go again

[BallardEra]

First game back from a western trip for the Caps and Keefe upset at the Leafs?

I see a 5 or 6-2 win for the Leafs tonight.

 

[DarkKnight]

Any word on Boosh?

 

[ACC1224]

Any word on Boosh?

Thought he stayed behind ?

 

[DarkKnight]

Thought he stayed behind ?

Didn’t Keefe say he could fly in for Washington a couple days ago? Sorry if I missed something.

No idea, I don’t follow their travel plans that closely.
I imagine it’s best just to give him the extended rest until Saturday

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Any word on Boosh?

No update as of yet.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

had this print in my room as a kid.

heh.

 

[Fogelhund]

Keefe seems like he was fuming last night, hopefully, the boys come out prepared today because holy moly that was... a really brutal display

Oh he was pissed. lol


I watched that interview, the man might quit before being fired. He’s tired of the half efforts too.

Any word on Boosh?

He’s in Toronto, didn’t make the trip.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

He should be fuming at himself too. Kept rolling Riley-Brodie out there. Anyway, this is another tough game against a desperate team. They have to up the intensity right from the start. I enjoy watching these games where the game is really meaningful for the other team.

I'm sure he was, just like the players fume at themselves. A vicious self inflicted shoulder shrug, a brief frown in a mirror and it's penance paid in full. No point dwelling on it any further after a self lambasting of that magnitude.

 

[Niagara Bill]

As we get closer to the playoffs, what happened
Jets, Canucks, Bruins, Lightening, Oilers win and take care of business, most against inferior teams.
The Leafs sleep for 2 periods and lose to a terrible team.

 

[banks]

I hope that Ovie at least nets a few. Watching his goal chase is more fun at the moment than cheering on the Leafs.

 

[Stephen]

Someone needs to pull Auston aside and light a fire under his ass psychologically. Ever since he reached the mid 50s in goals he's been on auto pilot seemingly not caring perhaps to save his mojo for the playoffs. I wanted him to reach 70 because that's a rare club.

Hopefully playing Ovechkin will stir something random in him to please compete at a high level.

This whole idea of saving yourself for the playoffs is so ludicrous to me. None of the other Art Ross contenders are really slowing down. They’re all blasting away and stats padding, gearing up and feeling good going into the stretch drive.

I don’t know who came up with load management in hockey but it’s like airplane slowing down on the runway mid takeoff to save fuel for once the plane is in the air. Doesn’t make any sense.

The Leafs need to play a full game, last night they showed up in the 3rd period. Let's hope that they start on time tonight.

Generous to say 3rd period...The last 10 minutes of 3rd more accurate

The Leafiest thing to do is to smash the Capitals who are on a surge of late.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Wonder which defenseman Keefe will have Brodie drag down today.

Rielly Liljegren
McCabe Timmins
Benoit Edmundson

I mean? What do you do?

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Rielly Liljegren
McCabe Timmins
Benoit Edmundson

I mean? What do you do?

I’d give
Rielly Edmunson
Timmins Liljegren
McCabe Benoit

A try while Brodie rests up ?

 

[ToneDog]

Carbury for COTY if he gets that lineup into the playoffs.

Wilson should be able to neuter 34 and/or 88 with a hit or two.

 

[Aashir Mallik]

Sit Brodie, hes actually unplayable. Soft, slow, stupid is how I’d describe his game

Woll’s turn to play, if he has a great game I’d give him Edmonton

Matthews and Nylander…a full 60 minute effort would be appreciated, maybe a few goals for the best goal scorer in the world

PP scored last night which was nice, especially since philly has a good pk. Now continue scoring and get hot

This wins the GDT

There will be no more posting here tonight.

 

[Fogelhund]

I’d give
Rielly Edmunson
Timmins Liljegren
McCabe Benoit

A try while Brodie rests up ?

I don't think Edmundson is good enough to play top pair, on his offside. Lilly has been ok with Mo. Timmins has been good with McCabe... leaving... well, what's left.

If had a dollar for every time I've heard that..............

 

[Fogelhund]

Doom nation likely to be shocked, when the Leafs actually play a good game tonight, raising our expectations for the next game, only to be disappointed again.
