Post-Game Talk: Leafs are a good team. They also are a franchise with skilled players

[crump]

Sparks keeps winning. Nice shutout. Johnsson put this away early. Flyer fans throwing Jerseys on the ice...what is going on.

 

[LeafsHome]

Watching Buffalo Detroit in OT - Buffalo is so bad lmao

going to a SO

 

[Healthy DiPietro]

And from the sounds of things we should have Nylander back sometime soon. RIP rest of league.

Incoming coincidental Leafs cold streak in december, cue the "Nylander is a locker room cancer" comments.

Why you have to be jealous ?

 

[Pookie]

Are you not entertained?

With NHL regular season hockey?

Rarely anymore.

 

[Zybalto]

Sparks up to .925 save %, 12th in the NHL. (120 min minimum)

 

[LeafsHome]

Detroit player hits bar in OT lol - no scoring after 3 shots

 

[barilko05]

Beyak is a TSN employee.

Ah...I c.

 

[MapleLeafs9]

Good bounce back win on the 2nd half of a back to back. Sparks showing he's more than capable of being the backup. Get Nylander signed, Matthews back and let's get ready to roll.

 

[Pookie]

Give Sparks his credit. He made some saves.
Gj Sparky!

Bottom 6 is starting to tear into teams. Depth baby.

JT and Mitch beautiful play.

Kapanen driving his own line from RW

Johnsson returns with a bang and Marleau has flashes of Brilliance

Kadri is still MIA

Dermott our grittiest D in a leafs uniform in a while! Laughs at simmonds and doesnt flinch

Freddy with his Laptop watching flix lolll

On the plus side, if we shut them out, Kadri can’t take a minus.

 

[LeafsHome]

Sabres win in SO

 

[CelticDruid]

Lol

If I were a fan of a team that had a live ginger female genital as a mascot and played like that, I would toss my Jersey too

 

[Heritage]

Solid game from start to finish.

Great scoring throughout the lineup, solid defence, and a great shutout for Sparks!

Hopefully he continues to put up solid games, and we can give Freddy so rest down the stretch so he is fresh for the playoffs.

 

[NiL8r87]

God we’re so overrated. Watching this team tonight was embarassing. We need Matthews and Nylander back BADLY and even then I don’t know if we’re a pretender or not.

EDIT: Oops sorry, thought this was last night’s PGT.

This is a bit concerning

 

[Goonface2k14]

they went there for Laine

With all due respect to Laine’s career night, this was a Leafs broadcast and a big win.

How would Jets fans react if it was the other way around? Say if they went from a 6-0 Jets home win right to the Leafs vs the Flyers, because Matthews had 5 goals so far?

They went directly there. I think most fans would’ve preferred, at the very least, some kind of quick live interview. Then go to Laine.

Not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things but still kinda feels like a slap in the face to Leaf fans, no?

Nylander is a locker room cancer.

 

[hockeyes]

Not specific to tonight but wow, Dermott is exactly the kind of guy the team needs on the back end.

 

[LeafsStorm]

Really enjoyed the game tonight.

Was it just me or was Sparks rebound control better tonight?

I just love that Cherry said he was a "good ol' Canadian boy" after the game, and Maclean had to correct him.

"Uhhh.. he's Finnish."
lol

Anyone else catch that?

 

[barilko05]

Good effort all round. Bottom 6 were GOAT. But speaking of him...sadly when AM returns he's destined for the PB, Marlies or...and I hate to say it cause I like Freddie...release. I think he's used up his 9 lives. Do goats have 9 lives?

What exactly are you doing here then?

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Really enjoyed the game tonight.

yeah, he's certainly calming down in net. he still only has a handful of games of experience. The team made it pretty easy on him though

Had it on mute and couldn't understand why they went there instead of the habs game which was a great finish

 

[supermann_98]

On a contract year:

Especially since the Jets won’t give bonuses in their contracts and Wheeler/Shiefele are signed on VERY team friendly contracts. They laugh at us over Willy’s hold-out? Just wait
