GDT: Leafs versus Oilers Sat Feb 7th - (Star Wars edition)

[The Winter Soldier]

Kessel is still in a slump.

 

[Turk Broda]

Did he just say "like a panther on a coke binge"?

I heard the panther part, but I couldn't compute the coke binge part. Romanuk is on a coke binge himself tonight.

 

[iceblue]

It takes a special kind of suck to be this bad

That statement applies to the Leafs most games recently

 

[yubbers]

Kessel is still in a slump.

Yup

Phil easily has a hatty tonight if on his game.

 

[mikebel111*]

Can we add Tavares to the question?

Why not elite C Bozak

 

[Turk Broda]

This game is a classic slump buster.

 

[socko]

Kadri with the lame move when a simple pass gets them into the offensive zone.

 

[HockeyCA]

So much for needing Kozun's energy
Kadri playing great
Holland good
Bozak okay but not impressive.......again

Can we really say any of that for a team that has lost 11 in a row and is close to being in the cellar?

Trade everyone except Reilly and Bernier would be the most appropriate probably.

 

[Erdinger]

Leafs players seem happier with their effort tonight. Guess that means Clarkson in against the Islanders

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Reimer is backing up his talk after last night's game.

 

[AustonMitchWilly]

That statement applies to the Leafs most games recently

Yes but to be as bad as the oilers? Oh man.

 

[Loosie]

I like Radioactive, but this Hynadai commercial being played EVERY break is getting annoying.

 

[King85Kong]

I'm not sure that they would win much in the AHL. There is zero chemistry between any of their players.

To much of the same. Variety is the spice of life.

 

[MajorLeaf]

Man this is sad for the Oilers. I really feel bad for Oilers fans, it's as if they have an AHL team playing in the NHL.

 

[Turk Broda]

Morgan Reilly makes these games worth watching.

 

[mikebel111*]

And Bozak lost his man. Apparently he didnt get the memo that Reimer had a kind of motivational speech yesterday

 

[tp71]

long shot but NOT OUT SOME LONG SHOTS HAVE PAID OFF

Currently according to sportsclubstats the leafs have to go 21-7-3 to have a 25% chance at making the dance. It's an extreme long shot at this point.

 

[Daisy Jane]

I would not do that. My advice to kids today are take a lesser job in a larger company. If you are good they will find bigger and better things for you.

right.
but then again, that's where the problem is. I don't mind doing lesser jobs, but most people simply see

"Daisy"
4 degrees

and go
"well yo're too qualified, and you'll be bored, etc etc" or ask for too much money.

i'm hoping one of these days people actually just go 'okay sure" (shrug). i'm not going to hide the fact that i worked hard for my education so hopefully, something cracks through soon.

Leafs are easily satisfied. Really Oilers are bad. I saw them 1 week ago, they had a decent game. But this game, they got the tank game perfectly. Almost makes me suspicious.

 

[KuleminFan41]

Well, the Leafs never could tank properly so there's that

 

[ironhorse384]

The irony is that leafs look like they're playing against themselves usually its them giving up breakaways and odd man rushes.

 

[iceblue]

And Bozak lost his man. Apparently he didnt get the memo that Reimer had a kind of motivational speech yesterday

Despite the score the Leafs as a team are playing a sloppy lazy game (other than Reilly and Reimer)

 

[mikebel111*]

Kadri with the lame move when a simple pass gets them into the offensive zone.

Doing his best Bozak impression?

 

[Turk Broda]

Reminds me of when we signed Martin Gerber back on March 4, 2009. Would have been a perfect time to tank. Instead we went on a run.

 

[wmark]

Komorav hasn't been very good since his concussion.
