GDT: Bruins@Leafs 7PM CBC HNIC - MOD WARNING POST #16

[The Legend]

Yikes, Nikita.

 

[Savvy]

Hutchinson is ****

Won’t find many people willing to say that simply because the desire to hate Sparks for them is to strong.

 

[TMLeafer]

I've said it before, no one hears footsteps like Zaitsev. He panics and gifts pucks away routinely.

 

[BigGulpsEh]

Terrible defensive game. And the goalie has to stop that.

Oh well

I agree. Hutch needed to make a save on at least one of the goals in the second period. But good lord our D is heinous under pressure

 

[yubbers]

What does that have to do with him sucking?

he doesn't suck. Look at his sv% He's an upgrade on Sparks imho

That's all Zaits

 

[Steven1562]

Guys just go to the corner. No guy covering anyone in front.

 

[TheFloater]

Leafs are such a mess in their own zone. They bobble the puck like crazy and Boston, with their aggressiveness, is quick to capitalize. Hutch isnt very good, but our play with the puck in the defensive zone is plain bad.

 

[FlareKnight]

Got to love that defense the team was so bullish about. Does anyone besides Rielly not suck?

 

[Thissiteisgarbage]

Everyone is ultra sensitive about Nylander, but man - his effort on the last couple of Bruin goals was horrible.
Dude has to be willing to hit somebody once in awhile. Yikes.

 

[Azazel]

For all the hate Jake will take and rightfully so, these last 2 goals are both results of Zaistev being unable to handle a picky under pressure

The 2 of them on the same line is an epic disaster, though it was z and Dermott that time, so hopefully we've seen the last of that pairing

 

[hockeyes]

Lol Zaitsev is a joke, he is visibly afraid of any forechecker

 

[BertCorbeau]

Those goals are killer. Boston just have the Leafs number.

Not good for the playoffs

 

[7even]

f***ing typical. I've seen this game before. Every Toronto Boston game is a rerun.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

No way you can go into playoffs with z and jake

Makes every close series a toss up.
You cant win 4 series that is for sure.
1 or 2 is possible.

 

[Jozay]

This team is entering into mental midget territory.

Don't know how we can pretend to be cup contenders when we cant even consistently figure out beating Boston.

They're a good team but aint even close to worldbeaters.

We're f***ing dominating them, are you not watching?

Some NHL caliber goaltending would be nice tho

 

[Wendelstache]

it sucks that Zaitsev and Gardiner think they are playing for the Bruins.

 

[The Legend]

I've said it before, no one hears footsteps like Zaitsev. He panics and gifts pucks away routinely.

Good point. It sucks because he seems like a decent skater, but he is awful at skating with the puck .

 

[thewave]

Zaitsev is even a bigger liability in Playoffs than Gardiner and that's saying something. EVERY TEAM targets his side knowing he can't make plays under pressure.

Like for picking up on that. lol

 

[Cleetus]

Gards and Zaits awful performance..... gotta step it up in the third.

 

[Griffin76]

Gardiner and Zaitsev are looking bad tonight. They really need to be separated.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

This team is entering into mental midget territory.

Don't know how we can pretend to be cup contenders when we cant even consistently figure out beating Boston.

They're a good team but aint even close to worldbeaters.

huh? they've played a great game and have been clearly the better team. don't be surprised that our 3rd string goalie isn't as good as Rask

 

[Da Cool Rula]

God Hutch has been ****ing garbage today

Today???? His never been good.

Hes a veteran AHLer like Sparks.

 

[leafsfan5]

Please get another defenseman, people thinking our defense is fine like this are kidding themselves

[Throw More Waffles]

This team is entering into mental midget territory.

Don't know how we can pretend to be cup contenders when we cant even consistently figure out beating Boston.

They're a good team but aint even close to worldbeaters.

We're about to go 0-4 against them this year after they flat out humiliated us in the 3rd period of game 7 last year.

If we don't stand up to them in the 3rd period and figure out a way to win, I fear it proves that our team is mentally weak.
