GDT: GDT 12-13-18

[Critical13]

They won't.

They've been the "favorites" for 6 years now.

I hope you are right

They were in complete control in the 3rd. Never felt the Leafs were going to tie the game. Shots are for boxscore watchers. They were roping and doping to a win. And that's exactly what happened. Complete control.

Lol

I'd be salty too if I were you

Not me, spoils go to the winners! T-Bay won fair and square.

Ah, the classic "u salty bro" take. Nice.

 

[Steeze]

So many spins in the GDT tonight, must be laundry day. It takes a dope to see a rope-a-dope. I saw an incredible goaltending performance.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Laine has been awful this game.

 

[La Masse]

Yeah they’re all the way back...

*squints*

One point.

With half the season left to go and a starting goaltender that has never played a full season yet. Im pretty confident saying the Leafs will finish in second place in the atlantic

Bro it's the internet and I'm not 12, don't know why we can't call it a good game and chill. All this posturing and dick measuring is kinda cringey.

 

[JerseyMike34]

Holy shit. That was just awesome by the Preds. Play with the puck until under 2:00, leaving the Canucks with no 5on5 time to make a real comeback.

Wow. Great job.

I'm just cheesing my dude, you're a good sport.

 

[The Macho King]

Bolts looked absolutely terrible and still won by 3, not too worried going forward. Leafs were impressive tonight though, really liked Kapanen's game. I shuddered whenever Marner had the puck as well...can't wait for the next matchup between these two teams.

I'll say this though -

I do not like the Leafs PP set up. One of the reasons Vasi was able to do so well is - as an athletic goaltender - he doesn't need much time to square to a shooter. With zero one-time threats since Marner and Matthews each play their strong side, it's going to be harder to beat him.

Does Toronto not have anyone with a good One-T? I know it's an odd critique of a top 10 PP, but there weren't a lot of shots I was worried about on the PP (not counting scrambles).

 

[Leaf Fans]

Crappy loss. Leafs deserved better, but Vasilevskiy was on fire and a couple of blunders and a lucky bounce or two sealed the deal.



Why would you want to meet them in the playoffs?

The games would be awesome, besides, if we want to win it all, we have to beat teams like them. I would accept a series of upsets that gets us to the final, but I would rather build the team to beat them. I want to have a Cup in Toronto as much as anyone; however, if it were another season of heartbreak I would rather go out entertained than be upset by a team we should beat.

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

Every team goes through these streaks, even the really great teams like the Leafs.

You might want to wait until they win something before crowing from the roof top.

 

[ALEXIVICH CHULKATURI]

How many points did Iscariot get today. I got 3-1 odds he doesn't break 75 points and I feel mighty confident...

 

[Critical13]

I'm just cheesing my dude, you're a good sport.

Is there anything else you do around here?

 

[SullivanT]

Well that should of been a penalty straight out

 

[snipes]

Just under siege in the 3rd.

Off to overtime now.

 

[7even]

You definitely wouldn't lose many when playing like that.. Puck just fell our way tonight.

Bounces were part of it but I thought y'all's D really played the front of the net well, not many second chances to be had, especially on the PK. Our PP tried that jam play like 10 times and there was nothing there.

 

[Mats13]

And they still won 4-1.

That's what teams on another level do. They win games regardless. If anyone thinks that's how Tampa would look possibly 7 games in a series, I have some real bad news for them.

Literally nothing to do with my post.

Tampa is not on another level. If they were the Leafs wouldn't have dominated the game.

As it stand Tampa is the best team in the league. Not a level above the Leafs though.

 

[Skolman]

Very happy with a point. We need Klef and Russell back really bad.

 

[Sky04]

Is there anything else you do around here?

Nah bro, stay salty.

 

[Critical13]

Disgusting 3rd by the Jets

 

[Critical13]

Nah bro, stay salty.

That's cool then, easy ignore choice lol

 

[koyvoo]

Pettersson-Boeser back at it

Yeah. No thanks. I'd rather not wish for such a series.

I don't want to have a heart attack before the Leafs hopefully win one cup. Then I can.
