Save this post.

Auston Matthews will be the poster boy for the NHL very soon. Every shift is much watch TV.

Matthews looks like he is going to take over this league... definitely going to earn every penny of his next contact.

 

[LeafShark]

Over/under for goals in the 3rd peiod is 4.5. Over/under?

Should be an interesting third period.

 

[mammothCacti]

You know what's fun?

Does anyone feel like we could play even so much better? Like we are still losing quite a bit of puck battles and the cycle didn't really come until the last period.

 

[GrizzLeaf]

Can we go one period without getting scored on?

Not that I'll complain if we win lol

 

[mrJT]

keep it tight for the first 5 mins and then bury them with a Matthews Hat trick.

Stars broadcast: "... and, the Stars are still owed a couple of penalties!"
I hate this line of thinking so much.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Can the Leafs just shut down the Stars in this period? I'd be very encouraged if they kept them off the board.

At least keep them off the board for the first 8-10 minutes so they don't get momentum. An early goal against will scare the bejesus outta me

 

[Boutette]

Ok look at all the teams he coached to wins....any coach would can do well with absolutely stacked teams that he won with. I really wished he stayed in DET rn and see how he does without a stacked team.

Didn't have a stacked team in Detroit after Lidstrom retired. They still made the playoffs every year. And then there was Anaheim the time he coached them to the finals.

After the face-off violation call on Dallas, I told my wife to watch, the Leafs are getting the next one even if they have to make something up. Sure enough, it was weak lol

Please make this easy on my heart.

 

[KyleSeaBass]

I need a Matthews hat trick to harvest the salt from the main boards.

Yes we can!!!
Just need a couple of new good RHD.

What I find funny is the ego that some fans have to think they know better then someone who has coached and won at every level in the sport. Especially when they haven't the least bit of experience.

Why?

I think if mlse pulled a random drunk fan out of the subways and made him GM, he very likely would have done a better job than Burke or Jfj. You’ll unfairly accuse me of hyperbole.. but I genuinely believe a random barn yard animal would have done a better job as gm than Burke did.

Sometimes the ego of these people can blind them to a point where a random fan really does know better.

Its a disgusting way to view the game, but sadly it looks to be how it works.

 

[Chief keefe]

I just want Matthews and Tavares to keep scoring lol. I want both of them to hit 50 goals

We can only hope!

If we can't shut them down, can we at least keep pace!

9-7 Leafs final score!

Exactly!
All us uninformed fans have been saying play Kappy up the lineup, with Matthews until Nylander comes back.
We called it.

 

[JerseyMike34]

Seriously, can we review that Hainsey goal? Pretty sure it was tipped by Lindholm.

 

[socko]

Leafs motto going into the 3rd period: If it bleeds, we can kill it.

I'm opening up a Matthews generational goal scorer thread on the main boards if he gets a hatty I mean would be 8 goals in 4 games..damn.
