Sutter gave up 7 last game. Guaranteed leafs will have trouble creating much

 

[MattySnipes]

Just win baby.

 

[Mr Knies Guy]

Feels so good to have Simmer back. I like this lineup so much better than the likes of Boyd, Barabanov, Petan... but when is Kerfoot going to be launched into orbit? It can't come soon enough. For me, he is the sore thumb that sticks out in tonight's lineup.

Every thing else looks good, I just wish Engvall could win faceoffs because he'd be a half-decent 3c if he could. But hey at least he's not Kerfoot-bad in the circle.

But they just said Freddy is playing injured. Why does it make any sense to start an injured goalie?

It doesn’t. Probably a bunch of exaggerated bs about him being injured to provide cover from the media for his ass play.

I'm aware of that Media can be so funny sometimes.

Reminds me when it was announced Babcock was coming back for next season and they immediately put out an article about how "Babcock was responsible for bringing Mikheyev to Toronto"

for sure

After the 7-4 loss against the Oilers, the flames will come out hitting hard. The narrative after the game will be "We need toughness!".

 

[ottomaddox]

Thank you for the return of leafs hockey.

Feels good man...

It doesn't, especially when Campbell is ready to go.

 

[VanW27]

Little bit concerned about the continued loss of team speed over the last couple years.

5 of 12 forwards are probably bottom 10% skaters in the league (Thornton, Spezza, Simmonds, Galchenyuk, Taveras)

 

[ShameOnYouZidlicky]

I have a bad feeling Leafs are going to go 0-2 this weekend

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Ffs just win boys.

 

[egd27]

I have a bad feeling Leafs are going to go 0-2 this weekend

So tired of these doom and gloom posts that begin with “I have a bad feeling “

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Ffs just win boys.

They've used up every excuse at this point with guys coming back from injury and a long rest. They don't win tonight and the red flags will be going up all over the place.

 

[The Iceman]

1st game playing Calgary with MUZZ back in the lineup since the cry baby tantrum by the cry baby of course.

 

[MattySnipes]

The last time we played a team smashed by the Oilers didnt go too well. Hopefully this one goes differently.

 

[mikeyz]

This.

 

[leafsfan5]

I have a feeling we kick their ass and go 2-0 this weekend

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Pretty cool that the Leafs are the model organization and other teams are trying to follow

 

[ShaneFalco]

Former iterations of this group - you'd think they'd come out fired up and ready to go down the stretch - full effort. We end up disappointed

We'll see how this group fares

 

[TMLeafer]

To be honest it was a good break form Leafs hockey for me too. Good time to air out the stench of the last few games. But ready to get right back at it!

Simmonds probably won't fight for a while but someone to lay solid hits would be nice.
