GDT: Game #2: Toronto Maple Leafs @ Detroit Red Wings | Babcock's Return

[Mats13]

Dylan McDavid, from Scarborough, Ontario

yes. yes they did.

oh man I'm actually sad I missed that

You heard it here first folks, Larkin>Eichel

 

[Al14]

ONE goal in first two games? Sounds about right...

How can that be. We have Brad Boyes for depth scoring!

 

[LeafsMonster]

And a pk...woo -_-

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Polak was awful with him last year

Phaneuf it is, and then Gardiner can take Polak.

Robidas would have been a good option had he not been injured. Maybe he's not a superstar, but he makes Rielly and Gardiner do better and that alone makes him valuable (especially when you consider everything else he provides).

I hope the Leafs learn how to throw those picks that Detroit is constantly doing to take forechecking pressure off their puck carriers.

Larkin does look good. But the thing is, he's playing with Zetterberg.

 

[namttebih]

I just can't listen to Healy any longer. I would honestly prefer McGuire over him and that's really saying something.

 

[BoredBrandonPridham]

The only thing that concerns me....they finish last in the entire league and are rewarded by picking 4th.

This is the most likely scenario

 

[Wafflewhipper]

What a moron Phaneuf is.

 

[TMLeafer]

That's a ridiculously soft call.

 

[Cor]

Dylan McDavid?

More like Dylan McEichel

 

[Cor]

What a moron Phaneuf is.

vvvvvvvvvvv

That's a ridiculously soft call.

 

[Zybalto]

What a moron Phaneuf is.

Naw, that is a soft call. I see worse slashes every second shift.

 

[deletethis]

This is the most likely scenario

I prefer to think of the most likely scenario picking somewhere in the top 3.

 

[MapleLeaf]

Can we offer a PTO to Mats Sundin ?!?!? I bet he still is better than any of the centres currently on the roster....and bring Shanahan down from the pressbox.

 

[Murphy Blue]

Reimer might just be better

 

[Wafflewhipper]

So this is supposed to pass as a hockey team eh???? I would be happier watch a team of goons lose and put a beat down on the no hit league.

I am fully expecting for someone to start a Fire Babcock thread

Babcock and managment know it will take a lot of time. Sadly these games are part of the "pain"

 

[Cor]

London Knights goalie Tyler Parsons scored a goal tonight.

 

[dballislife2]

man we coulda been watching young exciting skilled guys like nylander, hyman, and brown on this team...but instead we stuck with all these scrubs

 

[Zybalto]

Reimer might just be better

Leafs have really tightened up and have not given Detroit a chance to bury very many since the 4th goal went in......and look even worse offensively themselves.

 

[Mansfield]

gonna be a long season. anyway, it'll help with the draft pick!

 

[yubbers]

Cor needs to see a Shaman or something

 

[Rifleman]

man we coulda been watching young exciting skilled guys like nylander, hyman, and brown on this team...but instead we stuck with all these scrubs

It's called the Marlies.

 

[Hurt]

gonna be a long season. anyway, it'll help with the draft pick!

There are new rules this coming draft, correct? If a team ends up last, what's the worst pick they can have?
