[Raccoon Jesus]

Just turned over to Leafs-Kings to see Clifford scrapping with somebody on the Leafs (Bodie I think?)

Was it a staged fight or have a real reason to it?

Been a physical game, he didn't like a hit I guess, trying to fire team up.

That's what I figured. Just wondered when it was the first thing I saw in the game. Thanks.

You betcha.

Kinda figured it would happen because with toffoli and Pearson out we are icing a fourth line of ****** in clifford, nolan, and andreoff, and as you can see above, Sutter was laying into them today.

Particularly andreoff, Sutter basically said he didn't deserve to be on the team.

 

[hisgirlfriday]

How long are Toffoli and Pearson expected to be out?

Maple Leafs will come back and win this. Kings look terrible without Toffoli/Pearson.

That''s funny considering how the Kings thoroughly outplayed the Leafs in the 1st and keep swarming all over Toronto once they touch the puck.

Carter injured Komarov. Kings will win this now.

Toffoli has Mono. No timetable but weeks at least. Pearson is having surgery on his broken leg this week but probably the whole regular season.

Leafs coming on a little harder here. Kings are trying to re find their defensive game but still giving up horribly strong opportunities despite low SA

Carter only injures other players in blowouts

 

[Wolfpuck]

Do the Leafs really have only 6 shots halfway through the game?

Oh dear...

 

[Muston Atthews]

Do the Leafs really have only 6 shots halfway through the game?

Oh dear...

Shots are 11-9 with 5 left in the 2nd and Leafs going to the PP

 

[Mitchy]

Do the Leafs really have only 6 shots halfway through the game?

Oh dear...

Seriously, watch the game before being condescending.

An elite possession team like the Kings only have 12 shots. Leafs have 9. This is a hard fought, physical game. Leafs are actually playing quite well this period.

Shots are 12-11 through 2 period. I think LA may have had 2 shots that period.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Chess match.

Condescending? I was simply remarking that that was quite a low shot count.

Yes they are playing well. Bernier is back to his best as well.

If so, then I sincerely apologize. Sorry, about that.

 

[1989]

The referee with a beautiful almost-assist on an almost-goal.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Well ****.

Yay kings more adversity!

 

[M.C.G. 31]

That looked like it caught him in the throat.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Phew, Kopi back.

Kings need to get their heads back in the game now.

Leafs look much much more controlled than in the past, that has to be a comforting change

 

[dechire]

That was terrible

 

[hermes3893*]

Terrible game. Toronto were better, until typical dirty Kings play to injure Komarov.

Yep, that must have been exactly what was on the whiteboard.

Tell me about it, I mean, we're playing with an organized structured plan right now. It feels so... weird
