Post-Game Talk: Leafs Ground Jets 5-3

[Wafflewhipper]

Keep Brooks in when Mikheyev comes back.

Damn right bro

 

[weeweeballs]

Rielly should have 2 takeaways this offseason.

Do whatever routine Auston did and drop 15 pounds.

Develop a slapper. Do that and he's a top 15 D in the league.

he needs a better brain, not a better body

I like Brooks game tonight. No reason he can't be a 4th line guy next year with Spezza and whatever vet they sign to a 700k deal.

 

[Marshy]

Well one is at least attainable.

Hmm...It's almost like averages worked in our favour against the losing streak, and Jack Campbell was fine, and instead of being 28-13-5 and the sky falling, we're a vastly different 29-13-5 and congratulating ourselves on Dubas' acquisition of Foligno.

Glad we won as well, but the preamble is just nuts, boys.

 

[Superstar]

I still can't believe Simmonds got 2 minutes for walking his dog.

He probably didn't stoop and scoop...

 

[Albus Dumbledore]

Adam Brooks reminds me of Trevor Moore, I like it. I like what I have seen from some of these other young guys so far.

this will never change! lol

 

[BudForLife]

I don't know how much it means, but nail down 1st place with back to back wins against WPG on Saturday.

Hopefully but don't forget that Edmonton is breathing down our necks too...and we don't play them anymore.

 

[Ciao]

I liked what I saw of Adam Brooks tonight. I think he's gaining confidence in his game at the NHL level.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Sorry I’m late

 

[Iapyi]

Glad to see Brooks and Sandin do so well.

Brooks had the most hits on the team tonight [actually tied with Foligno] and had the least amount of ice time. Dude is 5' 10" 185

 

[PromisedLand]

So..... Matthews got more assists than Marner tonight; and Marner got more goals than Matthews tonight

The Foligno Effect?

 

[Wafflewhipper]

Well one is at least attainable.

Yeah case of beer builds brain cells and I’m sure it can make you 10 feet tall and invincible too at least once in your life

 

[Iapyi]

Picked the jets to win 5-2.......Hate picking against the Leafs in the prediction thread but everytime I have, they have won.
Won 22 bucks on the game result tho

DO NOT EVER PICK US TO WIN IN THE PREDICTION THREAD OR YOU'RE IN BIG TROUBLE!!!!!

Keep up the good work.

 

[BudForLife]

Am I the only one that got Swamp Ass during the last 10 minutes of the game?

 

[RealisticLeaf55]

What I learned after lurking Jets boards:

They don't get enough love from Sportsnet and TSN.

Matthews scoring ruins lives.

Campbell is AHL level.

They would have won if some third liner named Lowry had been playing.


We humbled them as well as the oilers did.

 

[ItsFineImFine]

Robertson, Brooks, Galchenyuk, Mikhaeyev....these guys need to stay in the lineup. I don't care about hurting the feelings of the three old guys or Engvall. North south speed helps you win in the playoffs.

 

[Wafflewhipper]

Adam Brooks reminds me of Trevor Moore, I like it. I like what I have seen from some of these other young guys so far.

Brooksie should stay in the lineup. This guy is a savvy player. He can score too in that bottom 6 role.

 

[Gabriel426]

Top line is really good. Nick is the missing piece for AM and MM.
Gally-JT-Willie was good too. Gally is buzzing when he plays with those two. Would like Willie to shoot more and drive to the net like JT.
Kerfoot and Simmonds, to me, played their best game as Lesfs.
Brooks need to have more confidence and need to understand that he is playing with the leading assist man in the past 20yrs in the NHL.

Campbell is solid and that’s what we need.
Holl needs to stop pinching.
Reilly needs to convert to LW bc he is not playing defence.
Sandin surprised me bc he was not physically overpowered by Jets forwards, if he can do that, he is a future top pairing D.

 

[PromisedLand]

When you see Foligno casually finishing checks hard on a forecheck it's just a clear reminder what that kind of gritty play style can do for a line. You get a guy doing that and Simmonds and Galchenyuk and Thornton chipping in, it gets the ball rolling and tires out the opposition.

Amen!

 

[Albus Dumbledore]

Brooksie should to stay in the lineup. This guy is a savvy player. He can score too in that bottom 6 role.

Yeah he injects some speed and skill in the bottom 6. Leafs have some size and speed all over the lineup.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

They NEEDED that win

 

[Wafflewhipper]

Yeah he injects some speed and skill in the bottom 6. Leafs have some size and speed all over the lineup.

He has lots of doubters on the board and I can’t put my finger on why. He’s improved so much with the Marlies. Keefe knows him and i think,not sure but think he just might get a chance with Keefer here. Keefe leaned on him pretty heavy with the Marlies. Mutual respect there. I don’t think anyone sees him coming except a rare sprinkling here.

Watching the Jets lose is always so satisfying. Hearing the Jets fans whine about it is even more fun.
