GDT: Leafs vs Flames || 7PM TSN4

[Northernguy10]

I don't like our odds in a shootout but I've been wrong before...

 

[NoName]

God I hate the shootout. Even if the Leafs win it still sucks.

 

[keonsbitterness]

The flames are an incredibly unlikable team

I have 30 unlikable teams.

Soon to be 31.

 

[The Beyonder]

Rittick pretty much getting the point. Ridiculous hail mary saves.

 

[MattySnipes]

11 rounds?

 

[Stephen]

Tavares killed out OT. Keefe should not have had him out there after that first shift

That was a straight up tactical error. He doesn’t win draws and can’t recover pucks or wheel.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Andersen in penalty shots
rut roh

 

[Wendelstache]

i'd be surprise if we win this skill competition.

 

[Willchel Marlynder]

Gotta have Matthews on to end the game there, that's a mistake by Keefe.

I'm sure JT is on for the faceoff (which he wins) but take him off after or swap Matthews for Barrie

Would have liked to see Matty there too, but it seems like Keefe was just going through the rotation.

 

[2 Slick]

Not even a slim chance Toronto wins this in the shootout. Andersen is trash on breakaways and shootouts in general

 

[Gallagbi]

That hit hurt? Maybe.

I'm betting he wanted Tavares to take the faceoffs, since they struggled with possession, but have Matthews hop on when you get possession for Barrie or JT

Marner didn't have a good game either so not sure why they'd break up JT and Nylander to get that pair out.

 

[StevenB]

Blocker save on Matthews

Oh that one was insane

 

[Incognito]

We used to be lethal at 3v3. Wtf happened.

We're facing an opponent that apparently thinks the game is called "keep away" instead of "hockey".

 

[fahad203]

Chalk this up to a loss. Rittich is ****ing impenetrable. Nothing is getting by him in the shootout

Nylander says hi

 

[TMLS]

Keef playing Tavares for 3 min of OT was idiotic.

When he doesn't touch the puck for the first 2 min dont put him back out.

he didnt have a chance, tavares got clamped in the zone for like 2-3 mins at the start bc he slow asf to chase for the puck in 3v3

 

[Paradoc]

You saw how good he was there?

 

[tmlms13]

Goat with the solid 3 minutes tonight.

Round 18

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Keefe with some questionable lines there

Yeah I'm not a fan at all. Also, why did he break up the top 6 to insert Johnsson?

 

[likecheese]

Wake up all the 11-year olds, it's a shootout kids!!!

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

That sound byte was a weird choice in this commercial. Something about TSN breaking news then the voice over “Maple Leafs get their star winger.” Like we haven’t needed to acquire a star winger for like half a decade now. What could he have been on about.

 

[DanM]

f***ing stupid shootout.

Calgary is one damn boring team. There should be some kind of violation for purposely going back out of the zone (like NBA backcourt violation)

 

[Gallagbi]

Would have liked to see Matty there too, but it seems like Keefe was just going through the rotation.

It was a mixed pair, so I doubt it

 

[DarkKnight]

It’s not even exciting anymore

 

[Mitch Matthews]

No offense against Tavares, but he should not be playing in OT

 

[Man Bear Pig]

That was a straight up tactical error. He doesn’t win draws and can’t recover pucks or wheel.

I think he was out to win the draw tbh. I'd rather have Spezza. Tavares looks gassed of late.

 

[fahad203]

Jason, this isn't 2006. You are not that player anymore

 

[Jmo89]

Well... At least they got a point. Not feel good about a shootout. But who knows?

 

[Big Cactus]

Big save save dave has been f***ing unreal. Honestly can’t hate the effort tn even if they lose
