GDT: Leafs@Panthers 7PM SNO. Part II

[LeafSteel]

I will put more effort into drinking this beer than this team put forth tonight.

 

[yubbers]

Funny cause history shows he actually gets better as the season goes on and has been our best/2nd best d man in all three playoff series he’s participated in game seven yips aside

You seem to forget him crying and apologizing for game 7. Then there's the game 7 before that. He's god awful when it matters. What metrics are you basing him getting better as the season goes on?

 

[Nooodles]

They just broke a 7 game losing streak?
Bahahahhaha

 

[scotian1]

Good job to break the Panthers 7 game losing streak.

 

[Gallagbi]

soft play by Matthews and Nylander

Nylander is fine on the goal. Matthews...not so much

soft play by Matthews and Nylander

Don’t say that! It’s all Gardiner and Zaitsev’s fault.

Matthews has been underwhelming since his mini hot streak after returning.

 

[saffronleaf]

Isnt he way above ppg still

dropping like a rock, don't worry. also, it's around that time of the season matthews gets injury #2.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

7 game losing streak ended.
on our dime.

jesus.

louongo loves beating the Leafs

 

[Egghead1999]

We have to be the easiest team with goalie pulled. No sense of urgency

What do you expect? Pull your goalie when your team has no puck possession

Hot Take

 

[Walshy7]

Matthew has been a huge disappointment. No show again tonight. Something's not right with this guy.

Better than Nylander though, but to his own standard nowhere near good enough

 

[Erdinger]

Is It time to boo Mathews?

At this point I don't think he cares about anything. Totally disengaged

 

[sessiroth]

Either his legit broken or his sending a message to Babcock/Leafs.

Either scenario is ridiculous.

He's playing scared. He doesn't want to get hurt again in a contract year. Also he used to score majority of his goals in the dirty areas around the net. He doesn't seem to have the bulldog mentality to score in those areas anymore. I'd say it's 90% mental. I could be wrong tho

 

[saffronleaf]

Hot Take

isn't that his thing? start the season hot then just get injured over and over again and in between his injuries play with zero effort and float around.

 

[robertmac43]

What did Tavares and Marner do wrong?

oh please, Nylander has been alright over the past couple of nights, playing with those guys would only help him find his way some more

 

[supermann_98]

florida is basically trolling with all these icings

Yeah they trying for the Hyman/Brown special ... empty netters, the only goals these guys score

 

[Leafsfan86]

this team really has no clue how to play from behind. 1-15 now when trailing after two I believe

Wow that's pretty pathetic with all that talent we have. No heart. No urgency. This team isn't going anywhere this season.

You put effort into drinking beer?

 

[1specter]

Habs win again, amazing how such a dogshit team can play well because of consistent effort
