Hutch was exceptional

 

[X66]

Keefe made me eat crow with Hutch.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Damn that felt good! Screw the Isles and their whiney fanbase.

TWS is going to be crying himself to sleep tonight.

 

[The Man with a Plan]

Congrats to Keefe for becoming the FIRST leaf coach ever to win 15 games in his first 20 games at the helm.

f*** the isles and their whiny fans too

GLG!!!

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Nice

 

[likecheese]

Maybe Hutch is a legit backup that was just getting Babcocked.

 

[BayStBullies]

Starting Hutch turned out to be a great move. The Isles are a brutal offensive team. Easy win all around.

Also, I think TWS might be cursed. Every bandwagon he jumps on, ends up losing. Thanks!

 

[Apotheosis]

Another 2 points each for Marner and Matthews. Slowly creeping their way to top 5 and top 10 scoring respectively.

 

[Warden of the North]

We win.

Haha Islanders

 

[stopclickbait]

Islanders are too soft to go far in the playoffs.

Hutch getting the win making the rest of the Keefe doubters look foolish like clockwork these days.

 

[weems]

Kerfoot is a really good little player.

 

[Schenn]

Man the Leafs sure were lucky to win. Just ask the other guys.

 

[Thread The Needle]

As my buddy 50 would say, "losers lose winners win".

Keefe made an excellent call to start Hutchinson and had the leafs play an excellent defensive game for 60 minutes. How can you not love this coach?

I heard Keefe is throwing away points by starting Hutchinson.

Babcock wouldn't even break his stupid play starter first game and backup 2nd back in back to backs no matter what the teams we facing.

 

[leaffaninvancouver]

Great game by Hutchinson. Very happy with the effort tonight.

Wow was that boring though, that might have been the most boring game we’ve had all season.

 

[Future]

Well done Hutch.

Awesome job by Keefe giving him an opportunity at home and not even a back to back game. This is how coaches can instill confidence in their guys.

 

[Stigma]

Gang gang

[Erdinger]

Good on Hutch. He should had have the SO against the Wings too

 

[Antropovsky]

Leafs speed on backchecks really killed the islanders. Hell barzals speed didnt even stand out against the leafs team.

 

[TMLeafer]

Solid win! Hutch was great. I guess Keefe's hunch was right.

Islanders tried to run around early in the game, Leafs stuck to their game and eventually the hitting wasn't an issue.

Didn't give up crazy chances and eventually got past the ugly NYI hockey.

On to the next one.

 

[LeafSadist]

Feels great man

 

[Cor]

I was told starting Hutchinson was Keefe’s first mistake and that Keefe didn’t care about winning and Hutchinson had no chance of winning.

Can everyone calm down and be trusting now?

Blueprint for playoff hockey if they can't outscore their problems.
