[yubbers]

He is realizing he is an alpha predator

 

[Fonzieleaf]

Time to grill some carne asada

Time for another beer.

 

[thewave]

The only problem with that period is we poured a ton of energy quick for no lead.

Hope we dont start the 2nd tired

 

[SprDaVE]

Good period, just couldn’t find the back of the net

Nylander has to find a way to score. He hasn’t been bad at all, he’s been engaged and playing both ways, but we need something from him here

He's definitely not skating as good as he usually does. Definitely still not 100% but he's doing ok.

No he hasnt

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

Holy shit this diamond and diamond commercial. Ambulance chasers will outlast the universe itself

 

[CelticDruid]

Bet this game goes five periods.

Marchand made the high diving team today.

 

[CabanaBoy5]

They only allowed one shot on goal. Defence has not been the problem again. We simply find it so hard to score. Swayman is either good or really lucky.

 

[MSZ]

Can the Leafs maintain this pace?

Probably won't. Woll will be tested quite heavily soon enough.

 

[Beanzy]

I feel a big 2nd period coming for the boys... regular season style.

 

[Macallan18]

Ok nap time

 

[PromisedLand]

hey Swayman you absolute piece of monkey crap

SHUTOUT

 

[ruaware41]

Leafs looking good small criticism at the end kinda bad decision by Knies at the end there screening the goalie on a low % backhand chance by Nylander rather than getting the stick down for a shot pass. Needs to enroll in Hymans school of garbage collection in the off-season.

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

Boys, it's BEER o'clock

 

[yubbers]

He hasn't had to wor too hard. We're being kept to the outside

 

[Jacquestrapless]

I like how Nylander took a backhand towards the net then slowly circled around instead of going directly to the net. Maybe this is why he has 0 points in 2 games. Hell, even Liljegren decided to go to the net

 

[Matty Sundin]

Why couldn't we play like this from Game 1!!!???

We played scared cause we’re a mentally unstable/fragile team. Looking at both teams on paper, we should stomp them. But it’s always been that most of the time.

 

[Cynical]

How many actual scoring chances did the Leafs have? Other than that last play everything was pretty easy for Swayman

 

[Burnie97]

Gotta get the puck up against him. He's completely eliminated any areas low.

Yup. I'm not sure why they don't just keep going blocker side.

Maybe Boston D plays that better than we realize and forces shots to his glove side.

Biggest thing to me then is they need to be moving the puck side to side quickly and put the freaking puck on net for rebounds. Even from a spot that isn't the greatest but just to create havoc.

 

[Aashir Mallik]

No he hasnt

You haven’t been watching the game

He’s been going into corners, he’s been back checking hard, he’s been blocking shots. He’s just been ineffective in the ozone for the most part, and when he does something Edmundson misses the net or Tavares bobbled the puck

 

[6ix]

We really lack shooters and a dman that can consistently get pucks through

 

[SprDaVE]

Bruins didn't have a single 5 on 5 shot on net the period. It was the floater from DeBrusk on the PK. They had chances, but all blocked/wide.

 

[Confucius]

How the hell did we only allow one shot? What are we doing differently

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

They only allowed one shot on goal. Defence has not been the problem again. We simply find it so hard to score. Swayman is either good or really lucky.

I find Boston is always so quick to jump on any potential dangerous turnovers before it fully becomes a chance for us. So often it looks like Marner picked one off or something and the Bruins recover pretty much immediately.

 

[BraveCanadian]

I love Knies

He's beginning to believe..
