GDT: Around the League 2023-24: The Marathon Becomes A Sprint

[BlackDogg]

I stayed up late for the handshakes

 

[Sra1974]

Or did he wa

Lol. Hrudey wanted Samsonov to go to the corner for that puck? How? It bounced straight out. Marner and Rielly were in nappy time was the issue.

I think he wanted him to play it as it was coming out front,

 

[RegDunlop]

Ha

Is that Kurt?

Cheech!!!!

 

[McJeety McJeet]

Good Lord Marner would be eviscerated in this market with that kind of performance, I can only imagine what happening in Toronto.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Hell of a play by Lindholm and Pasta but Reilly was just coasting back there, Bouchard would have been roasted here if he put in that effort.

That looked like a set play to catch them napping and yep, lulled them to sleep.

I can’t believe Hrudey blamed Samsonov on that and said that’s one he’d like back. Holy f***. That’s all I have to say about that.

Did the Leafs lose? I can’t tell, the site went down

 

[Paralyzer]

HF crashes when the Leafs choke. Never fails.

They all logged off, so servers are back .

 

[RegDunlop]

One ridiculous overbearing, never get away from, nauseating Canadian team gone (along with Win)

One obnoxious, arrogant, totally irrelevant, cocky Canadian team to go

We'll see who the real F ing Canada's Team is in a couple weeks

Their forum team is playing hard.

SN will be at least somewhat watchable now.
And would have been perfect if Nashville didn't suck so bad.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

So….I guess that means Singh will be sent somewhere other than Edmonton and Vancouver for round 2.

 

[Ruok]

Come all the way back just to lose. Have to imagine they have a shake up coming. It's hard to believe they have never won a game in the second round.

 

[VainGretzky]

They are drawing up next year parade route

 

[Satoru Gojo]

Leafs fans are blaming the goaltending

Their team scored 12 goals lmao

 

[Ruok]

The only downside to this, is for the nhl as a business. A deep leaf run would be good for profits I imagine. But happy to see "Canada's team" get dumped again.

Goals in the playoffs (Career)
Zach Hyman: 26
Auston Matthews: 23

 

[Drivesaitl]

PastaBaby!!!! Forget what I said about the Bruins choking.

Perfect setplay and executed, again, perfectly. No way Samsonov could get to that. was disguised play, Lindholm waited right to Center to dump, and Pasta had already been flying in. Only thing he had to worry about was offside. Perfect timing.

Ridiculous from Hrudey to lay that on Samsonov.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Come all the way back just to lose. Have to imagine they have a shake up coming. It's hard to believe they have never won a game in the second round.

What do the Leafs playing the Bruins and Peter McNeely fighting Mike Tyson have in common?

Neither one can get out of the first round.

 

[Shizuka]

Couldn't happen to a better fanbase. Bye bye leafs, ahaha.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Leafs fans are blaming the goaltending

Blaming Boston’s goaltending for being too good?

Sounds like a Leafs thing to do.

 

[Drivesaitl]

What a big game by Lindholm. Goal and great assist. One of the best dumps ever on a setplay. Good to have those laying around. Completely caught the entire Leafs team on that one. I could see Pasta flying down the wing, none of the Leafs spotted it.

Relatively simple play. Setplays are so huge. You practice something like this and it wins you a game 7 in OT, in playoffs.

 

[bellagiobob]

Keefe and Marner were shaking hands like they knew it was their last game with the Leafs.

Have to say it was the best I’ve seen Marner shake hands in the past eight years. You could tell he’s gained experience, and tonight was the culmination of a lot of years where the handshake really wasn’t elite, but kudos to him for taking those lumps as lessons and working on it during the off season. But I still think he has another level in him that we’ll see next playoffs.

It looks like Mitch Marner had just come off the bench and was right beside Pasternak and Marner just coasted back instead of picking up his man.

 

[McDrai]

HF boards crashed. Maple Leaf nation must be experiencing maximum heartbreak right now.

Be right back. Watching the Steve Dangle reaction video
