Post-Game Talk: Leafs win 2-1

[TheBeastCoast]

Joe's call on the 2nd Willy goal:

Inject that shit right into my veins. I'm all jacked up now.

 

[ChurchOfMatthews]

Honestly either team is kind of screwed vs Florida in my opinion. They are relentless.

All we need is a Woll between the pipes...

 

[TheGreenTBer]

I think now I'll be upset if they loose

Don't, that is how they get you lol. If they lose the Leafs can get a real coach and retool a bit over the next year or two and maybe come back stronger, who knows.

Oh my God I'm being...positive?

 

[DopeyFish]

marner REALLY needs to show up man.

marner was fantastic defensively and gave the offense a lot of good looks though no conversions

 

[93gilmour93]

Joe Bowen is a beauty

 

[colchar]

I think winning this series saves Keefe's job no matter what happens in the second round.

Which is a huge problem. The team is deeply flawed, and it starts with coaching. They need to make changes, and a little success now doesn't alter that fact. Two series wins is simply not acceptable.

 

[MSZ]

what a job by our D acquisitions, those guys are mean, and nasty, I love every one of them, total beasts

Funny that those anti-grit boys are no where near this post game thread.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

Want some therapy, lurk on the Bruins board and read them calling MacAvoy garbage, trade Pasta to Anaheim, saying Montgomery's last game is Saturday and the team doesn't have it.

Just like we do to our team to our own after every playoff loss.

We have a chance to break them, never looked forward to a game 7 more than this one.

Even if the Bruins win I'm not that impressed with them. Florida would beat the shit out of them.

 

[Killer Orcas]

Gutsy couple wins Leafs now put them Bruins to bed game 7!! Nylander really is a money player as well I'm ready to admit he's underrated.

 

[Confucius]

Agree on Knies but if Matthews comes back it effectively neutralizes Knies because he will be expected to defer to Matthews

How good do we expect Matty to be? If he couldn’t suit up for an elimination game, can he be 100% 2 days later?

 

[djdev]

marner was fantastic defensively and gave the offense a lot of good looks though no conversions

i agree with 50% of this, also no real stupid turnovers, but literally nothing dangerous from him either. we need more man u know it and i know it.

50% Matthews still better than a lot of players
Not to mention his presence can really boost the morals

 

[Evilhomer]

Florida is overrated. If the Leafs manage to slay the beast it will be like they were shot out of a cannon. We will take Florida down. We got more muscle this year.

If Florida is overrated, then i can't imagine what Boston is.

Inject that shit right into my veins. I'm all jacked up now.

It hopefully will have nothing on Saturday's even bigger call!

 

[TheGreenTBer]

He ain't paid $11M to be a defensive forward. That isn't enough and he knows it.

 

[LeafsFan89]

Joe Bowen is a beauty

I want a homer to call TV games. You can hear the passion. My God.

 

[1specter]

Yup he's basically an 11M Rob Niedermayer too often

 

[Gallagbi]

I don't think you put McMann in for Game 7. Doesn't make sense after being out for so long.

Obviously you put Matthews in but leave the top 2 lines as is. Sit Holmberg or Robertson for Matthews.

Gregor seems like the obvious swap for Matthews. Holmberg and Robby were great

 

[Racer88]

Agreed 100%

 

[leafsfan5]

GO LEAFS GOOOOOOOOOO

LETS f***ING GO GUYS HOLY SHIT

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Game 7 will be a 4-1

Thankfully, we don't have the firepower to go up 4-1

 

[MilkofthePoppy]

If Florida is overrated, then i can't imagine what Boston is.

I think they are overrated as well. Cmon Wotherspoon, Frederic, Shattenkirk, a 44 year old JVR? If we played like this from Game 1 we would have put them out of their misery two games ago.

 

[3blizzard4]

How is this Leaf team able to turn on a switch past two games and defend like they are doing? Like how!!!!!

You mean to tell me they had this in them all along?

 

[DopeyFish]

i agree with 50% of this, also no real stupid turnovers, but literally nothing dangerous from him either. we need more man u know it and i know it.

i saw like 3-4 passes to high danger areas but domi and bertuzzi were just not fantastic

bertuzzi especially seems to have a hard time with those out of nowhere passes

Joe's call on the 2nd Willy goal:

Great hustle by Rielly getting to the puck first to get it to Willy for the clear.

Great pass by Knies.

Great goal.

Great call by Joe.
