Post-Game Talk: Leafs 4 Oilers 3 in OT

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

I told you, don't stack the top line. Naturally the rest of the lines couldn't do shit. Tippett is such a bozo.

 

[The Hound]

Yeah, this trash team isn’t winning anything if we can’t beat the leafs who aren’t even a contender in their actual division.

 

[Gordian Knot]

Good effort 50 mins and then dog shit.

 

[CycloneSweep]

This game showed why we can't have a one line team against good teams. Holland needs to find another top 6 winger so Drai can go back to his own line. Nuge ain't a center

 

[yukoner88]

Hockey Gods sometimes giveth, tonight they taketh

 

[Oilslick941611]

Well deserved loss. Didn't show up in the first and let the foot off the gas way to early in the 3rd and they let the Leafs back in the game.

 

[29Beast97Mode]

least we got the loser point, but that was a pathetic third period. Also the refs gotta make calls when things are actually penalties. load of crock.

Kahun is bad. Bear is bad. RNH looks like he doesn't care in the slightest. Yamamoto should be bumped down the lineup.

 

[soothsayer]

I am not a fan of how casually McDavid skated back on the ot goal. Saw it coming a mile away. He could have easily gotten in front of Mattews.

 

[BlackDogg]

Nice choke.

Also that was some excellent game management from the officials. They really came through for Toronto.

We knew they would...

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Ryan Nothing Happens 10% xGF tonight, on the ice for 2 goals against.

And this guy wants 7m? f***ing joke.

 

[94 Oil Drops]

Refs butt ****ed us as usual. We were lucky to get a point... I'll take it I suppose. Leafs are a good team but man it sucks losing to them.

 

[Stealth1616]

While they fire refs this week maybe take a look at the 2 tonight. Absolutely horrendous blown calls that last 10 minutes that just can’t happen

 

[Zamknij kurwa ryj]

Get RNH and Bear off of this team. Singlehandedly choked this one away.

The reffing in this 3rd rate bush league is an embarrassment as well. Blatant infractions repeatedly ignored.

 

[OilfaninTO]

Weak back check by McDavid in OT.

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Leafs dominate the Oilers again! Trade Nuge and Bear. Terrible players.

Nobody was dominated lol...The LEafs had 2 incredibly fluky goals...

 

[The Panther]

I thought this was a fun and enjoyable game. For the most part, the Oilers played really well. And they finally got a Bettman point.

But the problem tonight is that 2nd line, which was completely useless. Yamamoto and Nuge just do not have any chemistry, and they all got burned on the two late goals in the third.

 

[KarmaPolice]

I thought Yams looked good. Nuge and Kahun looked like pathetic weaklings, easily knocked off the puck. Nurse was good. Bear I thought was awful. Not sure what's happened to him, but his reads have been awful in the defensive zone. Very disappointing.

 

[McAsuno]

Nice choke.

Also that was some excellent game management from the officials. They really came through for Toronto.

Draisaitl hauled down. Kass gets interfered with. No f***ing calls whatsoever. Tim Peel may be fired, but game management still exists in this game. I wish Tippett would take the fine for once, and blast these f***ing officials

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

Is this how the leafs keep winning?

Flukes and clownshoe reffing?

 

[ThePhoenixx]

That's how you manage a win.

 

[CupofOil]

Honestly, a deserved loss. The Leafs were better outside of McDrai.

This leads me to my next point. The coach can't keep McDrai together and expect to beat a good team because RNH is a big bag of nothing proving once again that he can't do anything away from the elite talent and this guy wants $6.5M to be a complete passenger and a guy who disappears against teams with a pulse. Give me a break

 

[McOilers97]

Those who think a LW addition isn’t a priority, was that 2nd line good enough for your liking tonight?

I don’t think they’ve even scored an ES goal since reuniting 29 and 97.

 

[KingKhron]

So similar to ten years ago. There’s no point in watching the game unless our top line is out.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

20 shots ain’t gonna win many games

 

[ujju2]

Our second line absolutely sucks with McDrai together. We need a top-6 left winger asap.

Also, wtf was McDavid doing waiting at Toronto's blue line in OT? That pass was always coming back the other way. f***ing pathetic.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

If RNH and Kahun were traded tomorrow would anyone miss them?

Just waive them, f***ing useless, same with Bear.
