GDT: Jackets @ Leafs at 7pm Feb 11th Sat on CBC, SN

[Stephen]

I hate how often our captain is completely invisible.

He showed up last night…

 

[Maplebeasts]

Nothing to do with the ref. Yes it was a missed call but Bunting is acting crazy after every missed call and the more he does that the more the Refs will let the other teams maul him.
he even looks crazy when he is on the bench

Excuse me but what does reputation/appearance have to do with refs not calling actual penalties? If there is a penalty just call it ffs.

I hate how often our captain is completely invisible.

He scored 2 goals last night. He is having a good season people are just all amped up to jump all over any game he doesn't put the puck in the net lol

 

[LastOne2100]

would be nice if keefe can call a time out and rip them a new one. Absolutely pathetic puck management

They don't care. Yelling at them won't change this shit.

 

[Stonehands 1]

Bunting is legitimate, just referee trying to limit out greasiness

 

[LeafalCrusader]

would be nice if keefe can call a time out and rip them a new one. Absolutely pathetic puck management

Players have tuned him out. They wouldn't care.

 

[The Apologist]

The more Bunting screams and goes crazy at the Refs the more they will allow the other teams to beat on him and at some point it will cost us in the playoffs

Oh shit... Better be careful, the refs may not call things down the middle in the playoffs for us....
Normally they're very good.

 

[Confucius]

I would love to have Kadri back

Hmmmm, give it time

 

[ULF_55]

Look at their points and scoring.
Nylander and marner leading the team.

Be nice to have Matthews in the line-up.

I guess we shouldn't be too hard on them as they are 5 forwards and some youngsters on defense.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Keefe after shitting themselves vs Ottawa

"You can't lose like that at home"

Leafs 4 games later...

 

[LastOne2100]

He showed up last night…

Absolutely. But an 11M captain should at least be visible every night.

 

[All Mod Cons]

The Leafs loyalty to Holl is kind of interesting. He’s a pretty typical 6’4” length defender who can pretty effective when he keeps it simple and they think he’s so indispensable.

The thing I like about Holl is

 

[Jojalu]

The more Bunting screams and goes crazy at the Refs the more they will allow the other teams to beat on him and at some point it will cost us in the playoffs

I don't disagree.

My point really is that there has to be accountability for the refs as well.

A penalty is a penalty whether you like the player or team

 

[MSZ]

I would love to have Kadri back

Not with his current contract.

 

[therealkoho]

Woll seems to be overplaying a lot of shots.

His confidence is shaky, he's seen too shots tonight

 

[Maplebeasts]

Players have tuned him out. They wouldn't care.

113 point pace and they have tuned their coach out? Really?

 

[biturbo19]

When society is betting on the color of gatorade...you know it has entire collapsed.

 

[MoreMogilny]

Engvall is our only secondary scoring

 

[Hellcat]

Kinda see the problem with this team in a nutshell, they panic when they get behind. Throwing pucks behind the rush, chipping the puck into danger areas when its not needed. Holl loses his man then takes a PIM when the guy was no longer a threat.

This team reminds me of the joke about the Bull and the Calf at the top of the hill looking down at the cows. I wont tell the joke because its R rated but the gist is the Bull wants to chill and take his time down the hill and the calf wants to freak out an run down the hill all panicked.

You look at the Lightning when they get behind, cool, calm, methodical. The Leafs, wild, scrambly, desperate.

 

[Cleetus]

When society is betting on the color of gatorade...you know it has entire collapsed.

it already has even before the bets on Gatorade lol

 

[therealkoho]

Giraffe will tie it up

 

[TheBeastCoast]

I do think people should prepare for Tampa having home ice. Team trips over it's feet to much. Personally don't think home ice is going to be that big of a deal anyways...still annoying.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Giving up 40 shots for your rookie goalie is no bueno.

 

[IPS]

WOW try harder to sell that dive my f***ing god...

 

[Racer88]

“Nothing to do with the ref”

Proceeds to describe the refs making calls based on their personal feelings about how Bunting looks instead of doing their jobs professionally.

My neighbour calls the cops too often about minor complaints so it’s really his fault if they look the other way when he gets mugged in front of the station.

I will try once more with you. My point about Bunting is not if the refs made the right or wrong call but the that they will just get tougher on him because of his crazy scream at them.
He needs to stop the crazy antics on every call and the stupid yelling at the other teams bench.
if you look at his team mates when he is doing that they look uncomfortable. He is turning into a clown but if you like that stuff enjoy
