Post-Game Talk: Leafs Dominant in 3-0 Win | Prayers Up for Muzzin

[Menzinger]

This doesn't make much sense, though. It should be all or nothing. Like a 3 day quarantine doesn't prove anything

Suppose it depends on the conditions in the hospital. Ie if he went from a private entrance to the mri and then back to a car with minimal contact with anyone else it might be seen as fine.

Leafs win

pucks finally in the net

trolls back in their holes

all is well

 

[hockeyes]

I've watched most games and I don't think any other series has been as tight as this one so far. I think whichever team comes out will be at an advantage next round.

I was watching while entertaining for a bday party. Great win when I saw their start I said this isn't the same team. I liked their extra gear tonight. Also I have a hunch they are finally seeing the types of effort it takes to win a round. If they have bought into playing that way....who knows.

I wouldn't expect a guy whose claim to fame is trading away a dynasty's worth of young players and a Lego man haircut to have a lot of insight.

How about a guy who coached a team to the Stanley Cup Final and then took them to an Eastern Conference final the next year? Would you expect insight from that?

Marshy...what's the gig, Band? Magician? Clown?

Good win by the Leafs, lost Muzzin was tough. Man, Martin Marincin next two games??

LOL my MIL ...I had no say!

 

[Da Cool Rula]

I guess we can hope. If this was precautionary. But even then I would say a hospital is pretty high risk for Covid-19 no?

Please I work at a hospital in TO. I Feel safer there then anywhere else

 

[crump]

LOL my MIL ...I had no say!

i hear ya.
good win today.

Watching the post game it’s pretty funny how often Torterlla answered Toronto was good we sucked. I kind of love how he refuses to breakdown what they did wrong.

 

[dimi78]

I think we should all be thrilled that the Leafs look like they finally figured out how to not have a historically bad PK. In fact, the PK has been very solid

It wasn't that the Leafs PK was bad the past playoffs it was Boston's PP was that good.

I'm a big believer that this team will eventually "GET IT" in what it takes to win a championship but one game doesn't change there trend of forgetting to put there work before there skill.

That is literally the only thing that holds the team back not defense, not Anderson not coaching, not they're soft don't fight, not the salary cap but they're very own compete level as a group and that's what's been so frustrating with this team.

It's very competitive out there. Very few big errors. Scoring first will be important so they don't score and sit deeper back.

Probably yea. Keefe will likely want a guy that can PK, and Liljegren hasn't been practicing with the main group and isn't left handed. Marincin-Holl are likely paired together.

If Rielly or Barrie went down I could see Sandin getting in, but filling Muzzin's spot would be tough.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Heading into this game I was saying how it's on Keefe to provide the adjustments .. His only real adjustment was flipping Nylander and Marner, and get them a bit more motivated and focused. Seems to have worked for this game.

Good on him. In a short series (as he should know from the AHL), there isn't much rope to "figure it out" so mixing the lines to catch lightning in a bottle can be necessary.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Marincin right now:

f*** that. I’d rather Cali Rosen get the tap. I’m done with the Marincin experiment tbh

I'd say beating a fan with a shoe tops all of that lol.

 

[RealisticLeaf55]

God I love this team. What happened to Muzzin? Was at work. Missed the game. Heard he went down.

I thought Engvall played wayy better than he did in the exhibition game and camp as well. I liked that change to the lineup.

 

[Pi]

I’ve been really impressed with Robertson. He’s got a shot at being a Calder nominee next year. No joke.

He plays the game well beyond his age. He’s not afraid to shoot let it rip and is an energizer bunny out there who even throws his weight around.

I don’t see any way he doesn’t make the roster for the next season, no way you can send him back to the OHL after seeing what he can do right now.

 

[stickty111]

I am guessing this is what Dubas envisioned we would always play like.

So proud of the boys tonight.

They brought the fighting spirit and dogged determination. We already know they have the skill, they showed us what else they have tonight

Agreed. Attack with speed and skill, and be physical when required

 

[Dave92]

Best playoff game they've played in the past 4 years, not the toughest competition but still very impressive. Hopefully Muzzin is back and Marner puts up some points.

 

[7even]

Was this our best game of the year?

 

[Superstar]

We win, awesome feelin'!
