Pre-Game Talk: Leafs vs Flyers - Schenn returns....

[Pi]

Bryzgalov has never lost against the Leafs

5-0-0 .956SV% 1.21GAA.

Doesn't really matter though, we were terrible 2007 onwards and did pretty bad on our Western road trips.

 

[BayStBullies]

It will be interesting to be on the other end of the Schenn defensive lapses.

Let's just hope he isn't up to hitting.

This may be the first Phaneuf on Schenn hit in history; wouldn't that be something?

The one thing I remember from the Leafs of the past few years; was that they used to come off huge one-sided games into the next game; very poorly. Hopefully they can keep some momentum going.

Philly hasn't exactly been impressive this year. We can take this game.

 

[LeafOfBread]

I'm not so sure we will win. We're playing great and on a roll, but we beat some weak teams (which is still a good sign).

1. We have a piss poor home record, the ACC is a toxic place to play

2. We suck against Philly usually. Last year we went 0-3-1, the year before I think it was 1-2-1 or 1-3-0 or something like that, and going even farther back I think we only have a couple of wins over the last few years against them. They give us a very hard time, as their team is quite physical and strong along the boards. However this year they've been underachieving majorly.

I hope we win, but I wouldn't bet on it.

It'll be nice to see Luke again. Always loved that guy. He would've been a perfect fit with Carlyle.

Leafs need a W here at home

 

[LeafOfBread]

Interesting, turns out the Flyers away record is as bad as our home record. Wonder how this will go then

 

[Phion Keneuf]

How many points for Luke lol?

 

[Asif16*]

So what are the chances of colton orr being suspended for tommrow? I hope not. I doubt he will get suspended but every article i read, they keep saying colton orr tried to KNEE. Like are you serious?? But he is playing tomm right?

I would say zero to none.

We don't hate Luke Schenn, we just like JVR a lot.

Kk. Thats good. Hopefully grabo can play as well. Also, Is brown healthy? Or is he still injured?

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Haha this.

Funny how they all wanted Schenn ++ for JVR in past threads... They were right!

 

[Space Coyote]

Keep these ***** in the basement. If the buds can bring the same intensity they had against the smurfs, should be a W. Nice to see Luke back though.

 

[TMLeafer]

I wonder if schenns foot speed has gotten better or if he still has cement feet?

Philly is hungry we have to weather the storm in the 1st 10 min and make a push to play our game after that

I recall reading that he lost ~20 lbs this past off-season? That'll help.

It's going to be tough for the Leafs to follow up their performance from Saturday.

 

[p.l.f.]

dump into luke schenn's corner
he's bound to screw up a few times

i dont miss him one bit

 

[Penalty Kill Icing*]

I don't feel that Schenn is part of Leafs anymore, which is normal and expected.

What isn't normal though is that I still don't feel like JvR is a Leaf in spite of his 7 goals.

He'll start screwing up sooner or later and earn his stripes

 

[FlareKnight]

This is a big game. If the Leafs want to see the playoffs they have to win at home and be able to beat teams like the Flyers. It won't be easy, but Leafs will have to tough out a win. Will be good to see how Luke has been doing over there, though hope JVR really shines.

Hope Kessel can keep this hot streak going for as long as possible. Though if not maybe the Kadri/Frattin duo will strike again .

And of course I hope Reimer has a good showing. He's really played well this year and seems to be that guy we saw before the concussion.

 

[Crispy Crust]

I hope the Leafs didn't forget what happened at the ACC last year and lay the absolute smackdown right all over them. Please ****ing beat that team.

I expect him to wobble the puck a few times like a grenade.

Amazing the complete 180 spin in public approval for Luke Schenn.

Alls I know is that I was one of the very first ones to call it like it is...Schenn sucks.

 

[Schenn]

Should I wear my Schenn jersey?

 

[Crispy Crust]

It's going to be tough for the Leafs to follow up their performance from Saturday.

Yeah, I'm fully prepared for a "letdown" performance. If the Leafs can walk out with 2 points it would be huge. We are due for a win at home anyway.

You didn't call ****. Schenn has been good for the Flyers this year. He's playing the way he did for us in his third season.
