GDT: Leafs @ Jets 8pm EST on TSN3/4

[Eye Test]

This is going to be a barn burner, does marchment get in?

 

[Alamo Leafer]

I want the leafs to smoke the Jets. Nothing against them, but, fack me their fan bases has the biggest inferiority complex west of Ottawa.

My sentiment exactly. Well put.

 

[Alamo Leafer]

Heck, even Ottawa's not safe anymore at night either folks.
I'm just glad I'm on the Quebec side of it all.
Having said that, if I do get shot, I am 99% likely to kick the bucket laying down on the floors of the Quebec hospitals waiting to be evaluated first fcol.

 

[ULF_55]

don't have a great feeling for this game.

like to be proven wrong.

shut them down.

 

[Warden of the North]

How many times are they going reference "Top two picks!"?

Over under of 6.5

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Why would he? We don't need him and he's less special than a lot of call ups who did not end up playing at all.

 

[Stand Witness]

Im willing to bet that this game will be messed up and a bunch of posters will have uncalled for blackout issues...

theres always at least 1 a year.

Nylander is out scoring Laine.

Laine is the better player, but its getting closer between those 2 at the moment... than Matthew's and Laine.

Matthews is way better than Laine.

By god, it's Taylor vs Tyler!!

Or is it still Ovechkin vs Crosby?

Stuff gets seriously played out too much.

This is probably the first real test we have had in a little bit. I’m hoping our fourth line consists of Marchment in some capacity.

Spending all day hoping they get Marchment in over Brooks or Gauthier lol

I don't see really anything in Adam Brooks. He might be one of those cool warm bodies to have around but that isn't all that valuable.

I didn't mind his play last game, smart little plays, with limited ice time.

Quite the contrary. Leafs do well in Winnipeg, more than half the arena will be leafs fans anyway.

It's the Saturday game against the Islanders that's concerning.

Ever since Tavares left them they've had our number.

 

[MapleLeafistan]

The last time Winnipeg beat the Leafs at home was in 2015. They've been 2-0-1 since then.

 

[Nylander88]

Exactly. And Keefe rolls the lines out top heavy, as it should be with the money we've invested in our top end forwards. Our 4th line is realistically going to see below 10 mins per night. I'd like a big bodied kid who hits and can fight in that role. Brooks seems like a waste there. Isn't PKing, isn't hitting like Tima...just don't see the point.

 

[The Podium]

Wow Jets fans really dont like us...

 

[robertmac43]

Always a fun one when we are playing the Jets! I'm looking forward to it!

It's the most perplexing one sided rivalry I've seen. I mean I want to beat the Jets because I want two points, but that's about as much as I think about the Jets. Well apart from being genuinely happy they got a team back.

 

[Mess]

I'm hoping Marchment plays a well.. Jets are a team that have size and strength and Mason would be a welcome addition to the bottom line.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Nobody does and I'm good with that

 

[DarkKnight]

Said every Canadian city.

 

[Mess]

I always look forward to these games as its my favorite team vs my home town team..

Winnipeg Jets were a WHA team however when I lived there and Bobby Hull was roaming the ice with Anders Hedberg and Ulf Nilsson.

So I have a soft spot for the Jets, unless they play my Leafs.

 

[All Mod Cons]

It's a toss up between Edmonton and Winnipeg for me (amongst their fanbase). They both put Vancouver and Ottawa to shame

I thought he was fast, very fast. Thought most if not all of his passes were on the money, he seemed defensively aware of where to go in the Dzone. He seems like he's got offensive skills but didn't get a chance to display much. Thought he went in the corners and along the boards when needed, didn't seem afraid at all, stood in front of the net quite a few times, looking for deflections and such. I don't know, he didn't look bad to me.
