Expecting a loss but they could surprise us.. Bernier or Reimer in net?

 

[Al14]

We owe the Canucks a serious injury, and, an embarrassing loss!

Too bad our Leafs probably won't be able to inflict either on them!

As for the injury comment, I obviously don't mean that it's done on purpose.

Bolland's injury last year was just completely a freak accident.

 

[realgoodleafs]

I'm expecting something like 6 - 2 Canucks.

 

[al secord]

Reim Time. 2-0 Leaves.

 

[Al14]

Reim Time. 7-1 Nucks.

Corrected for truth!

 

[Suntouchable13]

Stick with Bernier.

 

[eddieO]

This is one of those games you can see Reimer stealing, in that crazy standing-on-his-head type of way.

I also think it'll be good to get him into a game to keep him somewhat fresh. Have not been impressed with Bernier recently.

However, if they start Bernier and play Reimer next week, I'd be OK with that too.

We need to play way better D or this is a blowout.

I expect a Nucks blowout! I don't have any faith in our Leafs!

Sorry!

This is one of those games you can see Reimer BLOWING, in that crazy standing-on-his-head type of way.

No this is one of those games you see Reimer coming in after Bernier being pulled and letting in another 5 goals

Hopefully it is Paul Romanauk commenting instead of Hughson.

Also want to see Kadri line matched against Sedin line.

 

[King85Kong]

Hoping for the best. Leafs are such a wild card team that they make it so hard to predict results. I would go with Bernier again and give him a chance to bounce back. Need to instill confidence in our starter.

I see no reason why not to start Bernier. He's been great in 6 of the last 9 starts. Limiting the early first period goals and playing his style is the key to his success, IMO.

 

[discordant concord]

The Sedins generally match poorly against smallish speedy forwards that play a puck possession game, which is ironic given their soft reputation.

 

[Rayzorexe]

Hopefully it is Paul Romanauk commenting instead of Hughson.

I'm usually at work Saturday night so it's always Joe Bowen and Jim Ralph for me

Anyone else see the pattern?

 

[HEAVY DUTY]

bernier will start IMO. he needs to show he can bounce back. and i think he will.

it'll be a tough game, but i'm expecting a win. 3-1 Leafs.


GLG.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

We rarely beat Miller and we rarely beat the Canucks.

This has loss written all over it.

And Bozak and JVR are in the bottom 20 out of the 320 NHL forwards with 1,000 minutes ice time in even strength goals against per minute over the last three seasons.

If you look at big minutes forwards, they’re also outshot more than almost every one that doesn’t play for Buffalo.

Yes, the Leafs top line scores a lot. But they’re often giving back as much as they get.

 

[TheInsignia]

I'm feeling a loss here.

 

[p.l.f.]

Komarov ready ?

 

[Tyler Biggs*]

Jesus its a loss. They can't win every game. Relax folks.

 

[HellasLEAF]

Vancouver at home. It's hard to predict this one.
