With Calgary's struggles, hoping the Leafs can take 3 of 4 points and keep on cruising along.

Flames are going to come out hornier than a teenager on Frosh Week.

But if we get on them early, they might pack it in.

 

[Nineteen67]

I just checked the standings....wouldn’t be all bad if Calgary won both in OT and surpassed Montreal for the last playoff spot.

 

[Pi]

If Calgary doesn't come out guns blazing, their season may as well be over. You got embarrassed 7-1 against your biggest rival, if there is no push, pull the plug on that team.

We dont need to loose for the habs to miss the playoffs. Thats inevitable.
Their pgt from tonight's loss to the sens is gold...they realize that they are mediocre at best. Gold.

The Leafs cant get sucked into playing Calgary's game. After their 7-1 throttling on Saturday you have to expect the Flames to come out flying and hitting anything that moves.

The Leafs cannot get caught retaliating on those hits and putting the Flames on the powerplay. Let Calgary take stupid penalties and exploit them on the powerplay. Tkachuk, Lucic, and/or Bennett are going to try to start some rough stuff and if the Leafs dont get sucked in, they will get at least 1 or 2 powerplays by simply not acknowledging those guys.

Hopefully Freddie is focused at the start as Calgary throughs everything on net, the defensemen are cognizant of the physical forecheck coming there way, and the forwards realize that after Giordano and Tanev the Flames have a very young and inexperienced defense that they can expose.

You know, by God, I actually pity those poor bastards we're going up against. By God, I do. We're not just going to outscore the bastards. We're going to rip out their living guts and use them to grease the axles of our Zambonis. We're going to murder those lousy Cowtown bastards by the bushel.
That's all.

 

[MS13]

I expect Calgary to come out hard after they got spanked by Edmonton. I see it being a very tight game for us.

Hey Donald , we don’t need or want you as a leaf fan , go back to Qanon ...we don’t like or want anybody who incites violence on our opponents..

 

[Cor]

We are a better team.

Ignore Tkachuk’s antics. That’s what rattles him. Don’t engage, score goals, he’ll throw another tantrum and do another team meeting about it.

I wonder if Monahan is expected back

 

[Rude Dog]

I hate all the Canadian teams with a passion with the exception of Calgary for some odd reason. Strange. Anyway I am hoping that Mathews can keep his streak going and Tkachuk finds his soother.

I appreciate them too for some reason.

[On-the-Fly]

So big game for Nylander, eh?

 

[On-the-Fly]

No Hyman, no Muzzin.

Thats not great.

 

[CanadasTeam]

Hyman and Muzzin are definitely banged up from last night.

I won't be surprised if both are removed from the lineup until Wed.

I was afraid this was gonna happen

 

[Advanced stats]

No Hyman, no Muzzin.

Thats not great.

Confirmed?

 

[On-the-Fly]

Confirmed?

I cant confirm anything but some guys with eyes on the ice say they are not at morning skate.

 

[Confucius]

Too funny, I'm still ticking my Habs fans buddies off. We play 2 against Calgary I ask who are they cheering for? LOL!! It is true if you get into that 4 or 5 spot it can be hard to gain ground on a playoff spot.

 

[SprDaVE]

I was going to suggest the Leafs should rest/sit Muzzin and Hyman. Both have been playing through some really tough blocked shots.

 

[sxvnert]

Keeping Nylander and Tavares despite evidence clearly showing the magic is nonexistant is on Keefe and no one else. Its a Babcock esk type move.
