Post-Game Talk: Leafs Lose in OT 3-2

[TheGreatOne11]

Boring game.

Hope Foligno is okay.

Campbell did make some incredible saves, hope that doesn't get lost in the loss.

 

[Suntouchable13]

I am not worried about the 3-on-3 because it won't be in the playoffs, but I am concerned that Marner still tries to be too cute at times.

 

[stakesishigh]

Can't even beat the Habs missing half their players. Shameful.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Oh well.

Can we fast forward to the playoffs?

 

[LeafGrief]

That was a frustrating loss. Too many missed chances.

 

[Once]

New headline: "Caufield can only score 3v3."

Ah well, it happens. Boys played fine but did let up in the third.

 

[Racer88]

They must have chose the 2nd star for Matthews before the OT debacle

 

[LaPlante94]

PP looked better than ever with Rielly off of it. Starting to score some PP goals and getting lots of chances because Rielly was the problem. Nothing else, just him.

 

[TimeZone]

Pretty sure that Tavares shot was in, back bar and out. Doesn’t matter though, can’t wait to smoke the Habs in the playoffs

With the way Winnipeg is playing we may not get the chance.

 

[Wafflewhipper]

Muzzin gross entire game. Guys useless tonight

 

[Mats13]

Nice game guys.

How does it feel watching the most boring team in the league every night? Enjoy your first round exit

 

[m1ker]

Marner is so extra.

I blame matthews. Why does he always quickly pass back like that. He should shoot more.

 

[The Beyonder]

How do you not have Spezza on that last draw, Keefe? Come on
How do Matty and Mitch f*** up a 2 on 0? Come on.
Weak tying goal by Campbell, come on.

They blew it!

 

[wingman75]

It was hard for me to tell watching the Habs broadcast, but that seemed like a dog of a game. Boring, zero intensity.

This team is so uncreative in creative moments (PP and 3v3). On top of that, they are so predictable.

I remember a couple years ago Babcock said he wanted the team to be machine like, well, they certainly were tonight. It was all 1's and 0's and no passion.

Brutal effort imo. Also, Liljegren is not NHL ready by a long shot.

 

[Maplebeasts]

One of our more boring games of the season. That 3 on 3 was a complete eye sore. Montreal refusing to enter our end for like 40 seconds. Marner refusing to shoot on a 2 on 0, etc.

 

[Gallagbi]

Pretty sure that Tavares shot was in, back bar and out. Doesn’t matter though, can’t wait to smoke the Habs in the playoffs

Nah

 

[MattySnipes]

Had the chances. 2 pts were there especially to contend for PT.

Habs tied with Jets now. Three straight comeback wins for them.

I'll take the 1 pt. On to the next one.

 

[Leafsfan74]

Leafs lose the gimmick, but avoid the other gimmick called the shootout.

Meh, it's all about the Foligno injury anyways. Hopefully it's nothing serious.

 

[Albus Dumbledore]

Leafs coasting and still almost won.

Marmer just shoot dude. Matthews gave it to u on a silver platter lol.

 

[2 Slick]

And the only reason they won is because Mikheyev missed an ENG.

He's the most useless player the Leafs have. Can't score, can't create chances, has speed, but absolutely zero talent.

Wayne Simmonds missed half the season and has played like ass and still has more goals than he does.

Why doesn't he ever get scratched? He's f***ing useless.

 

[Burnie97]

Leafs played pretty brutal in the 3rd. Too many cute plays.

Move on and get them the next 2 games.

Doesn't mean much. Leafs have to be able to beat any team in the playoffs so just forget this one and prepare for the next. That was like a C - effort tonight.

 

[Dave92]

Leafs played like trash all game against a bottom feeding low scoring Montreal and handed them the game on a silver platter. Better team won. Montreal absolutely DOMINATED Toronto in OT. Pathetic effort top to bottom.

They really didn't, they spent most of OT skating in circles on their side of center.

 

[The Legend]

Caulfield is going to be a problem for years to come*







*assuming the NHL moves to 3 on 3 with teams cycling the puck in the neutral zone for 4 minutes at a time.

 

[StevenB]

Imagine ragging the puck in professional level hockey, that was just f***ing pathetic. Nice shot by Caufield but that was pathetic for athletes making millions of dollars a year

 

[Leaf4Life79]

Who really cares... we got a point, and we are clinched... Looks like we're going to be facing the Scabs, Jets lost tonight. Should be an awesome first round!!
