Pre-Game Talk: Leafs at Devils 7pm Sun - and on Sunday, Bernier rose from his injury

[Wami]

Dear Bernier, who art on Day-to-Day, hallowed be thy name
Thy glove hand come,
Clutch saves will be done, on gameday as it is expected
Give us this Sunday our must-win 2 points,
and forgive us our defensive lapses,
as we (maybe) forgive Reimer who trespass against us.
And lead us not into 9th place
but deliver us from the bubble. Amen



Please win


EDIT: looks like I'm praying for a miracle, no Bernier tomorrow

Also, I talked to the Stig and he's agreed to let me do the GDT thread tomorrow, I got some stuff in the works

i needed that laugh
Is he playing tomorrow?

 

[Crispy Crust]

I don't even know what to think anymore. I'm at the point where I'm just expecting this 18-wheeler to continue its free fall.

 

[Bluejaysfan*]

If Bernier is good to go but the Leafs still want to remain cautious...I have no words for this team and they deserve to miss the playoffs and get a useless draft pick.

 

[Jacquestrapless]

Just play Mac if Bernier can't play. Reimer's confidence is probably **** right now. He ain't gonna stop a slapshot from center ice.

 

[I Am The Stig]

Honestly, tonight's game has really turned me off from going to this game. Like I don't even wanna give the Devils money to watch the Leafs lose.

 

[mikebel111*]

I will be watching this game




Not!!!!!!!!!

 

[Pi]

Please play MacIntyre if Bernier isn't ready.

I'd much rather have a wild card in net who can go either way than knowing that Reimer will suck.

 

[Paradoc]

Please ****ing win this game.

 

[Raging Bull]

Bernier was ruled out for the weekend and isn't making the trip. It'll be Reimer again probably.

 

[TML FTW*]

I thought Carlyle already said he's not playing.

Edited post to reflect that

Why are we throwing the game away...

Play MacIntyre

 

[FlareKnight]

Might as well play the Marlies guy. No reason to play Reimer while he's performing like this. Not going to get any chacne to win out of it.

 

[I Am The Stig]

The Devils didn't score a goal tonight.

That bodes well for us.

No it doesn't.

 

[Espher]

I can't wait for Bernier to come back, especially if the team is playing the same way they are now.

Jonathan Bernier will not travel to New Jersey with the #leafs, per Randy Carlyle.

 

[William Hylander]

How many waffles do we need to sacrifice to win this one?

 

[Bluejaysfan*]

If Bernier isn't playing tomorrow, they probably won't play him vs the Blues either. Why throw him into the wolves like that. The Leafs precautionary strategy with Bernier is going to cost them a playoff spot. What did Leaf fans ever do to deserve the BS that we have to deal with when cheering for the Leafs.

If the Leafs rush him back and he re-injures his groin AND the Leafs make the playoffs? Oh boy, we will get thrashed.

 

[Philoctetes]

Bernys not playing tomorrow unfortunately, GO MACINTYRE!

Wolves or not, Bernier should play the Blues game. It's better to lose knowing you iced your best line up than to see Reimer play one extra second than he should.

Tomorrow better be Reimer's last game as a Leaf. Win or lose.

Carlyle just said Bernier will not make the trip.

This instantly cheered me up!

Thank you!!

So essentially, you would rather the Leafs take their time with Bernier and miss the playoffs as a result rather than actually make the playoffs and go from there? Oh boy... It's been reported that he is being held out as a precaution, which means most likely that he is fine but the Leafs want to give him more time.
