GDT: Games #5: Toronto Maple Leafs @ Pittsburgh Penguins - Hello Phil. No Tyler isn't here

[dballislife2]

played well, played hard, and lost...another great game

 

[Gary Batman]

What f***ing sucks is that we face Pens two weeks from now and yet again we will be playing back to back while they will be rested.

Such f***ing bullshit scheduling.

What the actual ****?

you heard him. That big fat Rielly and his horendous 1 year remaining 894k cap hit is just killing us.

What the actual ****?

i don't think people should post here when they are so obviously drunk.

 

[ChickenMcNugget]

Don't like the PP lineup at all

Boyes-Kadri-Arcabello-PAP
Phaneuf

what??

 

[Maplebeasts]

Bernier is the difference, without him we win 1-0.

Nope. He was lights out after this first, and saved at least one sure goal when he robbed Perron. It's like your goalie has to be perfect to be appreciated.

I should not have replied to that post but, I had to. Fat and over paid....the kid is turning into a #1 D man in front of our eyes and posters like that post nonsense.

Leafs win this game if it wasn't second game in two nights. Watch the rest of the season, if you are expecting a tank and a tank season, it ain't happening.

I will say this though, I am not a fan of Morgan Riellly. Really has gotten big, fat actually and he is just a big contract dragging us down, love to trade him.

Sarcasm?

I just don't see it and never have. Gardiner is becoming that guy right in front of our eyes. What are you watching? Rielly is just not the skater he was hyped up to be, not in the NHL.

Thanks for proving that literally every single player on the Leafs has haters, either rational or irrational.

yeah reilly not getting enough pp time, 37 seconds is bull shit, gardiner gets 2 mins something and phaneuf is over 4 mins, need some balancing here

The who do you hate thread proved that.

This is not the same, it is uneducated calling him fat and a big contract proves that.

Was the original hater of Schenn. And justified I think. Just think that the spotlight should be on the guy who really has the skills, Gardiner. Nothing against Reilly I suppose, but believe that Rielly is another Schenn. Not as bad obviously, but nothing near a hero. Gardiner has the goods and Babcock is going to bring this kid to the finish line.

Rielly is 21 years old. Most defencemen aren't even in the NHL at that age. Even if he was only mediocre, he still hasn't reached close to his potential.

But if you doubt his ability, watch this shift and tell me we don't have an amazing player on our hands.

Bernier has got to learn to play 60mins

He was the difference.

Agreed. If it wasn't for him the game would have been blown out.

We just don't have the talent to score right now.
