GDT: Leafs vs Sabres 7PM SNO

[Suntouchable13]

I wanna beat these guys bad. I hate that they're our kryptonite.

Need some points

Leafs need to get over it, or it might cost them. That would suck.

 

[kk87]

Uglier and a worse hockey player... that's unfortunate.

exactly

Actually, the game isn't only on SNO tonight. It's available nationally, on SNO, SNP, SNW, and SN1.

The SN1 broadcast, I suspect, is for two reasons. First, it makes the game available in the SNE reason which is getting the Habs game regionally. Second, it protects against the Blue Jays opener (starting at 3:00) going longer than four hours.

 

[Defense]

Matthews vs Eichel

Nylander vs Nylander

This is great! Thanks for that update. Was thinking I would have to watch on Gamecentre Live ;-)

Just need to find a way to get 2 points tonight. Nothing else matters really. Hoping they can get out to a good start and get a couple goal lead. Maybe the Buffaloes pack up and go home.

I am nervous as **** watching this stretch run, but results have spoken for themselves (so far).

GO LEAFS GO

to be fair most dudes are uglier than W. Nylander.

and are worse hockey players.

 

[GordieHoweHatTrick]

The odds for the Blues are incredible considering how well they've played under Yeo (19-7-2)

 

[Mess]

Matthews vs Eichel

Nylander vs Nylander

&

Marner verses Reinhart

 

[Territory]

Tampa gains huge ground on us if we lose, and our remaining games are against Washington, TB themselves, Pittsburgh, and Columbus.

It is very possible we go 0-3 against WSH, PIT and CBJ, which would make the TB game extremely extremely important, and if we lose that one we can probably kiss our playoff hopes goodbye.

Haha.

Expecting them to go 0-5 to close the season isn't realistic.

 

[Warden of the North]

Did Lehner play yesterday?

 

[6ix]

I think they'll be ready to go for this one. They know not to take buffalo lightly after the last debacle.

Too true

Did Lehner play yesterday?

Yes. I didn't see where anyone confirmed he was playing tonight? I thought it was expected for the backup to start.

Robin Lehner starting in goal for Buffalo vs. #Leafs. Frederik Andersen slated to start for Toronto.

This is good for us. The stats show its better to go with your backup in almost any situation in a back to back.

 

[X66]

I'd be the first person to tell you to be weary about playing the Sabres in Buffalo, but when was the last time this team played a meaningful game this late in Buffalo?

Hopefully they're motivated for that outcome.

 

[Damisoph]

we have to get some bodies in front of Lehner. The guy's got a short fuse, maybe Kadri can bump him accidentally.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Surprised they'd go back to Lehner again tonight to be honest

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Please God..just win tonight

 

[X66]

Stanley.
Cup.
Game.

It doesn't matter who the Sabres play in net tonight, they have very little chance in this one.

 

[member 262271]

At least Ryan Miller isn't in nets.

 

[mix1home]

Just bring our own doctor this time please just in case.
But don't allow Buffalo to run Andersen. They do it once - send clear signal (right in the face).

 

[ThrillinPhil]

3-2 Leafs in Shootout.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Please win

Exactly how we'll get blown out again! Over-confidence kills skills!

 

[Al14]

At least Ryan Miller isn't in nets.

The ghost he left behind will make all the saves!
