GDT: Game #4 | LEAFS @ STARS | Tues, Oct 9, 2018 @ 8:30 PM EST | TSN4

Strange. I live in Ottawa and subscribe to Roger's Super Sportspack and I just went to look at what channel the game is tomorrow night and it's not showing.

I've gotten the sportspack every year for like well over a decade and they show them all. Hopefully it picks it up tomorrow and adjusts.

Check channel 442 or 443. Game starts @ 830pm since its in Dallas.

Carrick's been good so far with the Stars. We hated on him for the smallest mistakes.

I mean, I personally hated on him for the big ones too

 

[A1LeafNation]

Big!

You win them now, then the games in April won't need to be so big.

There is always a big game in April unless its the last week and you can't catch anyone. There is always a race and most races are tight by the end of the regular season.

Stars fans badmouthing Kapanen like crazy on the trade board today. Really looking for him to have a huge night with Matthews.

Strange people on the Dallas boards. They appear to have deified Roman Pollack.

Either Polak or Carrick is guaranteed a goal.

Will be a fun game, I expect a win every night. feels good man

Yup...it's like some kind of rite-of-passage that all ex-Leafs must score!

The Stars have a pretty physical team. Wouldnt mind putting in Gauthier for Johnsson.

Johnsson has been garbage since pre-season. Can't hurt to give a big man like Gauthier a game or two, especially against a team like Dallas

Why not both.

Gauthier for Ennis I could understand, sort-of, Gauthier for Johansson however would make me want to gouge my eyes out

 

[Leaf Fans]

How is this a big game? The playoffs haven't started yet... or is it April?

It is huge! Regular season game 4 huge!

 

[Leaf Fans]

I mean, I personally hated on him for the big ones too

I don't remember hating him. We just thought others were better. He has had a great start with Dallas. Good for him!

were gonna skate these guys into the ground, i feel it.

He has not been garbage. He's come close to scoring on a few occasions and has been steadily improving his game and being dangerous in the offensive zone. I wouldn't be surprised if he pots one in Dallas or Detroit.

Gauthier is big, but honestly Ennis plays bigger than he does.

Ennis is very very average, Gauthier sucks but we may as well get another look at him before Nylander signs and his ass gets waivers

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Might wanna... uh stop doing that. Should say 31 times there were no Leafs forwards on their side of center out of 47.

 

[Torontonian]

Thank god for leafs games, gets me through the day faster knowing they are playing. I hope Kappy is playing on the top line tonight again while Ennis is on the 4th

 

[BodaciousBeefBazooka]

I'm digging Kapanen on Matthews line. He is slowly finding his game in the NHL which is promising to see.

yeah, he has the speed, strength and skill to play with mats.
It was one game but hopefully, it continues.

 

[Bedards Dad]

I'm pretty excited for Carrick and Polak to get their hattricks tonight.

Ennis cannot go back to that line. Kap has been great and is a perfect filler until we get Nylander back.

 

[Budsfan]

I thought I'd post this here Matthews is the #1 star but Bishop is the #3 Star, so it could be quite a battle tonight.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Nah, Babcock still gonna just keep throwing the same shit at the wall hoping it works.

 

[Trapper]

I'm digging Kapanen on Matthews line. He is slowly finding his game in the NHL which is promising to see.

It's up to Kapanen to not go back to the 4th line.
He has less leash than a vet who isn't going to improve. Because he's young, Babcock will move him down for a lesson because the upside is so great. He has to maintain. He has to play like he did in Chicago. Doesn't mean he needs 2 points a game, just play the same way regardless of points. Be involved in the offense, defend, go to the dirty areas and win battles.

 

[mapleleafs34]

That SPEED on our first line though

I swear if Ennis is back with Matthews to start the game I will lose my mind
