GDT: Leafs @ Rangers Part Two

[DoubleDouble*]

I honestly do not think we have played better than the Rangers tonight.

 

[Nithoniniel]

And this defensive system is just awful... Carlyle should be fired already, since we have this fancy analytical department.

How do the Rangers have the advantage in shots?

We stopped playing.

Somewhere the Toronto Media Journalist is calling James Reimer's mom...

 

[Slot]

Reimer's mom's house

Dave feschuck should know the address.

This team needs to play a full ****ing 60 minutes. Being dominated here in the 3rd...

Overall, no.

But that's also pretty normal when a team goes up by a few that the other team gets the majority of shots and chances.

 

[TheCLAM]

The player coming down the left side is the LD's guy, especially if the RD takes out the only other player in the zone.

The opponents RW matches up with our LD, LW to RD etc.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Looks like the Leafs are trying to stop being on the offense and trying to be defensive ... Their effort in this regard concerns me .. A little too loose

 

[iceblue]

6-3 and now we're all getting ornery with one Another again..

The game and optimism shifted when Bernier came into net

 

[hotpaws]

Watch the play. He let his man take a full slapshot from the hashmarks without even attempting to get a stick on it.

Open ice hits are fine if you're not defending on a two on two+.

take another look , the shooter wasn;t even on his side

Franson came to the middle and hit a rag and Percy shifted to the other side leaving the shooter wide open

 

[Nithoniniel]

Yeah, it was still coming down our left side, Percy's side. They don't man-mark wingers, in that case we'd have a D in the neutral zone as the one coming in and scoring was a C

Franson was the LD on that rush.

Need to act like professionals and pay the price. Leadership issues continue. Too many young kids who think this is it.

Percy has done this a few times.....still learning the ropes.

The point about open ice hits stands though. Its almost never a good time to do it in your own end. Leave those for the neutral zone. As soon as he went for the hit, Percy had to decide if he was staying with his man or taking the trailer.

 

[SprDaVE]

Franson was the LD on that rush.

He wasn't. Percy just bailed on his position when Franson shifted after the hit... but that was all Percy for leaving the shot open and taking the front.

I hate this kitty bar the door strategy, it makes for boring hockey but if we get a win, that'll be great.

 

[Swervin81]

Robbers is gonna ruin hockey coverage for the next 12 years

This broadcast has been horrible with all the hometown crap and gimmicks. **** off, Robbers. You've been ****ing as Canadians for too long.

 

[TOG26]

He wasn't. Percy just bailed on his position when Franson shifted... but that was all Percy.

Percy left way to much space on the zone entry.

 

[hotpaws]

Reims outplayed Lundquist by a wide margin and that will usually get you the win

 

[BertCorbeau]

Franson was the LD on that rush.

No he wasn't, he cut across the ice a bit to lay out Kreider who fed Brassard the puck .. Franson ended up on the left side because of it

Percy tried to shift to the right by the looks of it, but amidst that there was confusion between the two about who should close the gap on the shooter

Regardless a good shot from that spot on the ice .. Bernier could have had it on a better day

 

[LeafsMonster]

Komarov playing with more of an offensive flair. I like it

 

[Swervin81]

As the saying goes: Prevent defense prevents you from winning.

 

[Nithoniniel]

Yup.

A Franson - Percy pairing is just bound to get people blaming Cody no matter what happens.

It's ok for Percy to make a mistake, it doesn't change the fact that he's been awesome so far.

 

[Kyle Doobas*]

so close Komarov
