GDT: Leafs@NYRangers 7 PM SN

[Throw More Waffles]

Welcome back D.O.

There was some point earlier in the season when your posts were rational and well thought out. Shame you are back on the irrational rants.

Earlier in the season, I was literally the most excited I've ever been about this organization. Some people were being negative just for negativity's sake. I agree, and I called it out. So I'm not unreasonable. When things are actually going well, I'm happy. I just don't get deluded by the blue and white disease like so many others here.

And then these dramatic overpayments began. And the thing I was FINALLY happy about got destroyed right before my eyes. We should all be angry. FURIOUS. Just like we all should have been during Burke's reign of terror. But we won't.

We're leaf fans afterall. All living up to our leaguewide reputations.

Good job hyman... Good team mate

 

[horner]

gardiner is f***ing awful.


this is a recording.

As long as he is here we won't win the cup .

 

[Morlu]

I don’t get how fans can not like Hyman

Most fans like him. They just don’t want him in the top 6. He’s been really good lately though.

 

[raydizzle]

This PP is so so predictable. Even a sixth grader can figure it out.

Rielly NEVER shoots it, always passes it either to Matthews or Marner. Same with Marner, never shoots it, always passes it down low to Tavares or tries to pass it across to Matthews but never works anymore.

Why not put Muzzin out there instead of Rielly, someone with an actual shot at the point? But nope, not gonna happen because it's too obvious...Gotta keep doing what's not working.

 

[DanM]

We probably should have got an instigator there.

Love Hyman defending Marner though.

The instigator is the dumbest thing ever..... but I like old time hockey.

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Just a trap game now, which isn't good for us

 

[Trapper]

At least Hyman showed some life.

Kadri did it for Nylander against Montreal.
Gotta look after the boys.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

rielly has been far worse than gardiner

No, he hasn't. Even when Rielly is not sharp, he's still way better than Gardiner is most nights.

Today included.

 

[Walshy7]

Exactly. I think Matthews made ~$400K for one season playing there. He can probably command even more. I think he'd be a great fit.

Oh well matthews going back is a bit extreme I was thinking more like the colin greening level players either tail end of their careers or younger players who had a couple of seasons on nhl 4th lines

 

[Macallan18]

Most fans like him. They just don’t want him in the top 6. He’s been really good lately though.

Well said.

 

[Maple Leaf]

As long as he is here we won't win the cup .

I been saying this for years but be careful the gardiner fanboys are coming

 

[Al14]

Incidental contact was called interference on us earlier in the season. This time on Marner, no call!

 

[Pocket Hercules]

....ladies and gentlemen.... the team muscle is zach hyman......

Yikes...I really hope Dubas addresses this during the offseason. McQuaid anyone?...

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Hyman didn't really need to do anything. The PP is our enforcer

They didn't call a penalty.

 

[hamzarocks]

good shift for matthews there

 

[ThewThew]

Matthews could have helped out Dermott there but instead he decides to watch the puck ..

 

[TMLeafer]

Matthews didn't even attempt to knock down that puck on the boards when Dermott pinched. Good shift otherwise.

 

[DarkKnight]

Nylander fun to watch again.

 

[yubbers]

Kadri did it for Nylander against Montreal.
Gotta look after the boys.

He actually finished a check is all

 

[GBLeaf]

Stop F'in over playing it. Need to be more direct. If there's space, attack the net, put the puck on net and across the goal. Too much waiting

 

[Throw More Waffles]

Just a trap game now, which isn't good for us

It's good practice I suppose. It's the type of play we'll likely see in the playoffs.

 

[Superstar]

Leafs' PP losing the game for the team.

 

[Suntouchable13]

This Deangelo kid will probably find his way back to the press box.

 

[Sonny21]

At least Nylander looks good. That's a positive. His legs and hands are officially back.

If he can work on hitting the net more often, sweet.
