Post-Game Talk: Leafs Win 6-2

[member 147413]

I’m so hyped about this team.

Matthews and Marner are electric. Wait, what? We also have Nylander, Kadri and Tavares?

 

[RoadWarrior]

I have a feeling that Leivo will stay over Ennis.

If Ennis was a shoe-in over Leivo; Ennis would have played on the Kadri line and Leivo would have played as a place holder for Willy on the Matthews line.

Thats my theory anyway

It’s between Ennis and Johnsson for the 12th forward spot.

Assuming you subscribe to TSN (and Sportsnet and whatever):
- Make an account at watchtvanywhere.ca
- Go to TSN from their portal on your computer or phone. You may be directed to their mobile app if using phone, avoid this by requesting the desktop site.
- Log in using the credentials you created at watchtvanywhere (same credentials work for any TV service you subscribe to that has a "go" app, which is pretty much everything good).
- If still blacked out, you might need to access it through a VPN. Sucks but at least it's an option. I'm headed to Houston next month and I've got a VPN setup at home ready to go if I have any trouble logging in from there.

Mods: there is nothing illegal described above, this is a legitimate service.

Thanks for this. I wont have any problems with any of that. Kudos friend.

Zero points for Marner. Wonder if he’s still best player on the team and if he’s still worth $10 Mill.

Is that you MinusMitch with a new account?

 

[weems]

His stick skills in close are amazing.

 

[PromisedLand]

It’s between Ennis and Johnsson for the 12th forward spot.

Johnsson plays on PK and 2nd PP unit I think he will be fine.

Ray Ferraro is why nobody likes Leafs fans. He just gave a year's worth of ammunition the the Anti-Leaf crowd.

he's not the reason why nobody likes leafs fans. its leafs fans that make people dislike leafs fans.

 

[Eat The Rich]

Well, what I really like about Ferraro is that he is never biased towards a team, always try to keep things balanced and highlights the negatives just as much as the positives about a team. What he said about the Leafs tonight was just an honest opinion of one of the best hockey experts today. It must be hard to accept it if you are a fan of another team.

I guess I should have prefaced that by saying I don't necessarily disagree with him.

The second part of that statement absolutely holds true, though. The bandwagon Anti-Leaf crowd would care about nothing further than those soundbytes.

 

[Jozay]

Leivo brings more snarl to the lineup than Ennis, so I'd lean Leivo.

 

[Eat The Rich]

What the guy below said

What I said to him.

I'm on "your" board because we share a common interest in hockey teams.

I think that some folks are a little too sensitive and serious when it comes to the Leafs.

 

[Blanche Blanche]

First off... the D.

Dermott - An asterisk of a reminder of why he was a regular last season when called up. Quick, decisive, accurate outlets and is smart.

Jake Gardiner is Jake Gardinder - we knew he was good.

Zaits - was good. He has reclaimed that speed he lacked last year.

Now the front.

Leivo and Brown lots of hustle and were first to alot of pucks.

Marner - obviously added strength, his fancy plays last year that landed him on his ass are now ending with him infront of another player

Matthews is Matthews

JT showing his teeth. Willing to be rough and give headlocks numerous times this game. Nice to see a leaf do that more.

Honourable Mention :

KAPPANEN - his speed with linemates matching his make him easily a fill in on 1st and 2nd lines. Creates numerous opportunities for JT and AM. He has the grit like Hyman with more explosive giddy up. Also willing to be rough and facepalm other players.

I see Kappy improving and being a killer 3rd liner for the leafs. Which is a 2nd line on others.

Concerns : 5vs5 still looks rusty at times.
Not as bad vs MTL... but still ughh.

Go leafs!

 

[Cleetus]

Freddy the Goat Waivers?

 

[PuckMagi]

Just finished watching the game... wasn't watching live.

wow... what a fun game! going to be a fun year. so many goals going to be scored. really missing Nylander. hope he signs for opening night.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Freddy the Goat Waivers?

hopefully. he's not an NHLer

What did he said?

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

What did he said?

he said the leafs are going to be a nightmare for other teams and put up a ton of goals. he actually want on and on about how intimidating their offense is

 

[member 300185]

If I'm Josh Leivo and I lose a spot on the roster to Tyler Ennis I think I'd be asking for a trade at that point. It would be pretty obvious there's nothing he can do to make this team.

Leivo already asked for a trade last year.

 

[Cleetus]

5 more sleeps till we start the real deal, cant wait!

 

[pcruz]

I'm on "your" board because we share a common interest in hockey teams.

No you don’t. If you did, you would know that:
1. Ray Ferraro is from Vancouver
2. Ray Ferraro is not a Leafs fan whatsoever
3. Ray Ferraro is a former NHL player with almost 900 points on multiple teams (none of which were Toronto) and therefore has no connection to the Leafs
4. Ray Ferraro is absolutely honest in his judgement during and between games.

 

[deletethis]

It's a great time to be a Leafs' fan. I hope this lasts for many seasons. My biggest anxiety: goon tactics aren't completely dead.

 

[sxvnert]

Freddy the Goat Waivers?

Goat is a meme at this point. Had he not been given the nickname I doubt fans would give a rats about him.
Percy, Biggs, Goat.....buh bye to an era I would love to forget.

 

[Gabriel426]

he said the leafs are going to be a nightmare for other teams and put up a ton of goals. he actually want on and on about how intimidating their offense is

That’s pretty accurate.
If Non Leafs fans want to hate the Leafs for actually being good, let them.

 

[member 300185]

he's not the reason why nobody likes leafs fans. its leafs fans that make people dislike leafs fans.

You said it AnusLoomba.

 

[mallory67]

Watched that whole game. Could have been 10-1.

 

[sxvnert]

No you don’t. If you did, you would know that:
1. Ray Ferraro is from Vancouver
2. Ray Ferraro is not a Leafs fan whatsoever
3. Ray Ferraro is a former NHL player with almost 900 points on multiple teams (none of which were Toronto) and therefore has no connection to the Leafs
4. Ray Ferraro is absolutely honest in his judgement during and between games.

Probably correct. The only homers are Hayes and ONeill. Noodles and Ferraro are not from what I can tell.
