So Svech was dominant in the first. For the first time he looked like he was the first forward in the draft. Fell off quite a bit the rest but I’m glad he got rewarded, he created the first goal almost solo.
I watched the TO broadcast for giggles. They flat out accuses the building for padding the shot clock. Multiple times. They go to the panel in between periods and Friedman said people were doubting it even in the studio and that the “boys upstairs” actually went back and counted them all to verify that it was legit. Then the next period the game guys said it wasn’t padded again anyways.
My god **** all those people. So arrogant.
All around good effort. Rask got brought in slow, everyone contributed it seemed. Aho wasn’t too noticeable. Defense played great I thought.
There's a main board thread in which a few Leafs fans did the same. So I brought out the numbers and wouldn't you know it, the difference between our average shot total at PNC Arena and our average shot total on the road is about 2 shots/game?
First, let's start with our home games.
