Post-Game Talk: Leafs Win 4-1 | "Corsi Enthusiasts Hate Them!"

[Tyler Biggs*]

Doug Gilmour's best season as a pro was at age 30 as a Leaf in 92-93. While joining in the spring of 1992, the 92-93 campaign was Gilmour's first complete regular season as a Leaf. Due to injuries and the lockout, this will be Lupul's first full season as a Leaf as well. **fingers crossed**

Lupul could crack the 40 goal mark if he stays healthy.

The fact Ranger had more TOI then Franson, makes me mad especially since Franson had 2A and 4 hits..

Just wait till we get Clarkson,Kulemin,JVR etc back. This team will be even better.

"tonight the Toronto maple leafs just couldn't keep up with the wild"



look at the score bud

Well, they're right. The Wild outplayed us to an extent. We just executed better.

Our own Theremedial or a guy that uses the exact same avatar being silly on Twiitter as he is a frequent Mirtle fan.

Ranger didn't have a bad game and has been getting better. Wrong again.

Seriously? Ranger looked great this game and has two good games in row before. As I've said before, people are so focused on their agendas against players that you wonder if they are able to enjoy the games.

 

[Raging Bull]

Leafs played fine despite shots. First period was a joke with all the penalties they took, period 2 was sloppy as usual, and they shut things down in the third.

 

[Leafs For Life*]

S what did Kessel do? Give a rookie the empty netter and if so, who? (Wasn't watching)

 

[FlareKnight]

So fun to win. Of course also fun to give the finger to Corsi .

Props to Reimer for coming up big and proving we have a couple excellent goalies in the net.

Just read a few Sens comments. Apparently, the Leafs are incredibly lucky. They also can't wait for the Leafs to play some good teams.

 

[bax]

If Kessel ends up with 39 or 49 goals this year I sure hope the "realists" remember this game. That was a cool moment for this team. Just goes to show how little the players actually care about personal stats or any stats in general just the WIN.

The Leafs are like a Terminator sent back in time to destroy shot-based hockey stat analysis before it can win the war

Reimer is making a case for himself, Loved Kessel at the end. Feels good man! Just printed my Tickets for the Leafs game in Columbus on the 25th!!

Enjoy the game, man.

 

[Nasty Nazem]

Nice to see Reimer get a start after a while and still be great. He was Leafs best player tonight and hopefully he'll get the next start too and Leafs can just ride whoever is hot.

I thought Reilly had his best game in the NHL so far. Bolland was good as well. It was a struggle for pretty much everyone else.

Just read a few Sens comments. Apparently, the Leafs are incredibly lucky. They also can't wait for the Leafs to play some good teams.

Glad to see them admit that the Sens are not a good team because they were one of the teams we beat.

I knew some of them had functioning brains...always nice to be right.

 

[Budsfan]

Reimer is playing well and so is Bernier, Leafs have great Goal Tending, 1a and 1b.

Very Classy play by Kessel.

Rielly ain't going anywhere, he gets better every time out, one small gaff tonight but he played a very good game.

With so many of our first line players out we have still played great.

 

[Nithoniniel]

The fact Ranger had more TOI then Franson, makes me mad especially since Franson had 2A and 4 hits..

Franson had two second assists on the PP, if I'm not wrong. That shouldn't neccessarily be a reason for him to get more even strength ice time.

No matter what I don't see the problem of having a lot of ice time on a defenseman that played a very safe, stable game.

so is that their way of saying that they aren't a good team? as we played them? and beat them?

Then it is true, it has to be our pal Theremedial. Doesn't post much when Bozak plays well and with Grabo in Washington now.

 

[kihei]

Rielly looked good; Reimer looked good; and the Leafs are leading the NHL (for a couple of hours). What's not to like?

 

[dballislife2]

man i hope lupul can stay healthy for a couple of years so he can prove thats hes one of games top players, cus he is, his skillset isn't as good as kessels but hes production is right there with him cus he doesn't play soft

 

[Punch Drunk Loov]

Atta boy Kessel, classy move

 

[yakfish]

All these yong kid look great! Got to love what the future holds for this team!

 

[Daisy Jane]

S what did Kessel do? Give a rookie the empty netter and if so, who? (Wasn't watching)

Raymond cleared the puck (to empty net it) and Kessel tracked it to make sure it was heading towards the net, and when it was clear that it was, he backed off - ensuring the goal was Raymond's, not his own.
