GDT: Leafs vs. Blackhawks | Sat. Oct. 19th | 19:00 Hours | CBC

[Mitchy]

We can't just put all our blame on injuries and just wait for our players to come back from them. Ottawa had an AHL team last year and were competitive every game. Yes, they had great goaltending but they also played with so much heart.

 

[Grant]

Surely he could've picked a better example than a powerplay for Chicago.

 

[The Reaper]

Someone should really punch Healey

 

[saffronleaf]

if we end up getting back into this game, who do you think scores for us?

 

[RASHBEEP]

All Bernier's fault, shouldn't be giving rebounds like that

And people say Reimer's rebounds are worse

They are.

 

[hockeygeek]

and 2nd goal too, puck went off him, so bad goal, plus it was Kostka, no goalie should let him score

Ya it's the goalies fault...god I hope ur being sarcastic

 

[Hurt]

Healy using a PP to prove how great Chicago possession is

Here's a time when he's not wrong. Leafs ARE standing around. They can't even touch it. Amateur hour right now. Hopefully they show some ****ing pride for the Leaf on their chest in the third because this is utter garbage.

 

[kesleaf]

if we end up getting back into this game, who do you think scores for us?

Crosby and Stamkos

 

[TSBSoupsta]

Oh stop being so butthurt. For **** sakes. Clearly Healy is generally useless, but that was still funny whether it made a good point or not.

 

[samyy]

I hope Randy is forced to play:

Lupul - Kadri - Kessel

get Bozak away from Kessel please.

Of course everyone losing their **** over a little criticism. You know what guys? Healy is right, we are playing like pylons. Admit it, accept it and move on. Gotta look forward.

 

[Warden of the North]

if we end up getting back into this game, who do you think scores for us?

Lupul-Bolland-Rielly

 

[Daisy Jane]

Lupul - he always starts us off big like that.
then Bolland, tying.
then I'm going to put a lot of faith on our big guy and say kessel game winner.

Exactly. It might have been a PP video but it looked like the same as every other 40 minutes of the game.

This is quite easily the worst game the Leafs have played since Game 1 against Boston.

 

[Future]

My impression is the Leafs are giving the Hawks too much respect, like they did with the Bruins last year to start the playoffs. Once the Leafs realize they are just another NHL team, I think this team can compete with them as they did against the Bruins in games 5, 6, and 7.

Look, we've been playing like this all year. They aren't giving the hawks special treatment.

 

[Rare Jewel]

Surely he could've picked a better example than a powerplay for Chicago.

Yep.

Got to make it seem worse.

 

[saffronleaf]

lol healy what a clown. i have a love-hate relationship with cbc. i grew up watching it, so i love it. but on the other hand, screw hughson, healey, and co.

 

[htpwn]

What is this *********?

Any time it is said that CBC has a bias towards the Leafs, all one needs to do is pull that clip up.

Harlem Globetrotter music, really? No other team would get that ****.

The Hawks were on the PP, for ****s sake. The Leafs did the very same thing to Nashville the other night (control the puck for 1:10 in their zone).

The team is being outplayed, but come on...

 

[LeafsNation149]

You know you suck when Kostka scores on you GG Bernier

 

[Warden of the North]

Hes right, but using a PP to show it is disingenuous. He should be using an even strength segment.

 

[Warden of the North]

Ender's Game: See it. Awesome book

 

[ObeyPerry]

exactly.

third period is generally our best.
we can do it. but we need to shoot more now.

This could be a very interesting third then. The hawks have not scored a third period goal this young season.

 

[Daisy Jane]

this is true -
but, if his argument was, the Leafs are standing around on the powerplay, look: and then go on. that's one thing.

but his argument is Chicago has great possession all night long! (shows a powerplay).

 

[The Beyonder]

We can't just put all our blame on injuries and just wait for our players to come back from them. Ottawa had an AHL team last year and were competitive every game. Yes, they had great goaltending but they also played with so much heart.

If it was like Kessel, Lupul, or Phanuef, I could see the argument, but we're missing Kulimen, Clarkson, and Fraser; injuries cannot be used as an excuse at all.

 

[TML23]

Look, we've been playing like this all year. They aren't giving the hawks special treatment.

It's so true. Actually the Leafs have been playing like this last year too. Nothing has changed.

Carlyle and the Leafs did NOTHING to improve on their own defensive zone this off-season. This is just brutal to watch

 

[RASHBEEP]

Yep.

Got to make it seem worse.

Leafs have looked like that regardless if there was a pp or not.
