Pre-Game Talk: Caps @ Leafs - Last game before the break

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Sharks have 6 powerplays against the Caps so far. I wonder if the Leafs will get more than 1

Well we've tried him everywhere else without any success, so let's put him in a position that requires greater defensive awareness and responsibility.

What could go wrong?

He's been extremely successful in the past 2 years, moving him to center could help break his funk as he's playing well, just snakebitten

Sigh, Ovi looks like he's about to heat up again. Leafs might need some lube tomorrow

 

[MSZ]

Sharks tied it up with one second left. lol

 

[Suntouchable13]

One thing we know for sure is that one team's misery will continue tomorrow.

Does it matter?
We don't score on it anyway

Watching us butcher 6 PP opportunities would be painful

Yup, let's keep moving him til we help him break his funk. Wonder if he'd be any good as the RHD we need?

That's generally how it works when someone struggles...you juggle the lines a bit, build some confidence back, and get the guy back up to par.

Haha, no you don't trade Willy, that'd be foolish

Defending cup champs have lost 6 in a row...

...they need more toughness probably.

Need an upgrade on Wilson for sure.

Of course. He's not going to miss a chance to light up the Leafs.

Well damn. Caps lost 6 in a row, leafs busted the slump for Florida and Minnesota when they were on losing streaks. They better not take this game lightly.

 

[ToMaLe]

If they do and then we can’t score anymore and we lose? Babs should face some tough questions at that point, no more of this Paul Hendricks shill softball questions.

they played together for half a game against the habs a couple years ago and the line scored 4 goals. they havent played together since, figure that one out! a genius i tell ya.

Its grouped with the All Star Game. We play tomorrow and not again until next Friday (Feb 1)

Fortnite and Fries for everyone. Nylander comes back even fatter.

We need puck luck to win any game these days.

Damn, maybe I am drinking the Dubas Coolaid, but I really liked his interview.
What he said really calmed me down and made me feel safe about the future.
I really hope it's not just words ... but great job Dubas.
Let's get Matthews signed soon!
And let's show the Caps who's boss!!!
GO LEAFS GO!!!

It's what they've been doing since he got back.

I wasn't suggesting trading him for a RHD, I was suggesting playing him as a RHD. Nothing else has worked for him.
