Nice win by the Buds tonight. Anderson played good and nobody looked horrible tonight. As an added bonus the Habs, Sabres, Senators, Jets and Oilers lost. Feels good...
It seemed like every draw tonight the Leafs center got booted from taking tne face off. We have 2 guys on each line who can draws though, no big deal tbh. I don't know the numbers but the team seemed to be doing well on draws considering the new rule about being the 2nd guy taking the faceoff.and great to have 2 centres on each line leo saved naz every time he was kicked out
Number one in the league IIRC. That's the beauty of having all these centers(some obviously playing wing). Still frustrating that on almost every draw someone on the leafs gets the boot.Bozak 55.7% 97 Draws
Kadri 54.8 73 Draws
Matthews 52.6% 57 Dra ws
Nylander 51.0% 49 Draws
Moore 61.3% 31 Draws
Kpmarov 66.7% 27 Draws
Fehr 51.9% 27 Draws
I was thinking the same thing tonight. Hainsey has no flash to his game. He's boring, in a good way, and rarely makes a huge mistake. Gardiner and Rielly are clearly more skilled but they can learn a lot from Hainsey and his no nonsense, simple approach. Hainsey has been our second best dman with Zaitsev being the clear #1. Happy and surprised it ended up like this thus far. It also means that Rielly and Gardiner need to step it up a bit.I know many have mentioned it, but Hainsey is solid. I love focusing in on his game - he does all the small things down low, along the boards. Just a rock back there.
Add Rielly, Zaitsev and Hainsey for me.Brown, Kadri, Nylander, Freddie were the standouts for me in this game

No passes for this team....if Marner gets demoted....the Cor gets called out! LolNice summary. Brutal calling cor out like that. He's been a key part of the rebuild. Gotta give him a pass tonight.
In the GDT, when he missed the net on one chance, the usual detractors jumped all over him. Even when he got the puck on net, through traffic from the point people were complaining that it hit the goalie.Pretty sure this post is the closest anyone has come to ****ting on him I’m this thread so far.

i think that was the best all around effort! what a game. Nylander was dominant, but his move with 5 minutes left that resulted in the turnover and 2 high quality chances for washington really made me
Mirrors last season. Lots of shots but no points.Nylander's best game this season. Dominant.
Thats the accepted price of being a puck carrier. Did you see Matthews turned on over as well. When we cite Marner for his mistakes lately its because it been 3-4 a game. Mats Sundin had that happen, CrosbyCrosby, McDavid, everyone who has a puck on their stick 5mins a night really.
No way. That is something you just don't do and I am sure Babs let Willie know.
