GDT: Leafs @ Jets April 22nd 7:00pm Sportsnet

[2 Slick]

Yahoo has the game postponed did something happen overnight or mistake?
Toronto 0 - 0 Winnipeg: Ppd | 2021-04-21 | National Hockey League | Yahoo! Sports

The game against Winnipeg was originally scheduled for Wednesday, April 21st. However, since Vancouver's games were postponed until Sunday, the Saturday and Monday game against Vancouver were shifted up a day, same as the one against Winnipeg.

 

[Thornbury]

Just win and end the slump. This is the worst they have been playing all season. Even when they went 1-6, I still feel confident about the team but these past 5 games are just horrible, it is like Meet the Parents, where anything can go wrong will go wrong.
Must WIN game and start a 26-0 winning streak.

Their overall play in this slump has mostly been solid. They've gotten inferior goaltending.

 

[Thornbury]

Even though they'll want to get certain guys reps on the bottom pair & Bogo being out leaves a pk void that could be filled with Hutton, I can't see them scratching Sandin because wow was he ever good yesterday. I'd go as far as even giving him a chance on the top powerplay unit.

Foligno in tomorrow makes sense but Hutton & Noesen should get some practice reps in first.

Wouldn't mind seeing Noesen on the 4th line. Engvall really seems lost.

In the slump, the D’s been fine and the offence has generated lots of chances.

Need a game of converting them, take the eyes off the goalies.

Debut games are fun. Good luck Nick and Lili (fingers crossed).

 

[Pi]

This team should really be in the hunt for the Presidents Trophy if not for goaltending so no I’m not going to blame all of them for one position not doing it’s job properly.

For once though, I’d love to convert on the chances we get instead of knowing we played better and lost.

Would be great if both our top lines could fire at the same time on the scoresheet. Whenever Tavares is hot, Matthews and Marner are off the scoresheet and vice versa.

Yeah, thanks.

 

[Burnie97]

Seems level heads have come back to this thread after everyone being pissed after last game (and rightfully so) nothing wrong with high expectations.

Let's really hope for a big win here tonight though ... boards will be nutty if not.

Number one need = stopping beach balls
Number two need= convert your opportunities (shoot the freaking puck on net)
Number three need= keep the powerplay going... they've got a couple recently.

Memo to Nick Foligno: If you feel the need to leave the bench during an on-ice altercation, please, at least hit someone!

 

[ACC1224]

Time to end this lousy streak. We need Campbell to step up. I think you'll see quite a few changes. Reinforcements are coming.

Thanks for adding the time and channel to the title. Too often that information is missing.

Who is Noesen?

Some Marlie that was part of the Foligno deal

 

[Hockey Crazy]

We know what Campbell is capable of and he needs to get back to that. We will win just about any game where we get average or better goaltending.

No problem. I can switch it to the gdt too later once lineups are out etc. Or create a new thread.

As for Noesen, I don't know much about but he came from the Sharks in the 3 way trade when we got Foligno.

Looks like he has about 54 points in 200 or so games played with a decent amount of penalty minutes. I think he's a fairly tough 4th line type tweener ahl/nhl.

 

[All Mod Cons]

I'd imagine we'll get tonked tonight.

 

[robertmac43]

Massive game tonight, let's get these points!

 

[ACC1224]

Tonight we’ll see how they overcome some adversity in a tough, important game. I think they’ll do well.

Safe to say, biggest game of the year so far?

It is game day so I’d just change the prefix.

As long as it stays in your imagination.

 

[LeafsOHLRangers98]

Give me a pairing with Liljegren on it today and I'm happy.. Oh and a win!

Our Leafs tend to play down to their level of competition, but tonight they may need to play up to win this one.

 

[GardinerTheForward]

Win tonight and tomorrow PLEASE. I want to see a division win and a Habs series

Edit: Win this set against Jets

We have no idea what Campbell is capable of. He had a hot streak, and up until that point was a career backup. He's never had a season where's he's carried the full load as a starter.

I never embraced the never Freddy claims as at least he's shown to be a reliable starter throughout his career. Also playoff success pre Toronto.

It will be interesting to see what top center gets Folign on their wing. Some media are project he will start on the 3rd line. That’s just not going to happen I wouldn’t think.
I would Guess, Foligno/Tavares/Nylander and won’t get broke up the entire game. Powerplay will see Foligno get the net area too.
This bottom 6 of our better be ready to play hard or the Jets bottom 6 will eat them up. Maybe it’s about time some bottom 6 players that do nothing all year do something for a change. The defense can start shooting a bit more from the point would be nice too.
I don’t have a clue what team will show up. Same inconsistent traits and fumbling powerplay expected again.
