Post-Game Talk: Leafs WIN!

[JT AM da real deal]

Totally missed this. What a hit. Moore is such a beauty.

That shook up da big man love it. He did not think Moore would go for it. Chara looks old. This is first game I watched him where I really noticed it. It is about d*mn time. He was outlasting father time. But not anymore. He is near the end.

 

[napoleon in rags]

So that was our first game 1 win since 2003.

The first of many more to follow!

 

[Randy Randerson]

Anyone else having a really good day in the afterglow of last night?

On the flip side, our resident elders - Marleau and Hainsy - both looked solid. Marleau in particular had some real fire in his belly. Not surprising really, Marleau knows what's up.

Huh.
Surprised no one brought up last nights backup goalie....

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Im pretty sure player safety saw it

Kadri is a marked man.

If he's in front of player safety again he is gone for a long time.

 

[CincoHolio]

People went nuts when I said the same. He is Gretzky lite for his creativity.

No doubt in my mind he is the 2nd best player from '15 draft.

That is good news. That will hurt them on CAP hit. And they are going to have a hard time getting all their guys signed too under CAP. About time it is not just us on the CAP.
All 3 big teams in Atlantic - Tampa, Toronto and Boston - are going to have rough summers with the CAP. It may happen that all 3 teams get a little weaker.

Brown ran over a guy behind the net. Cant remember who, but he got rocked

Brown also ran over the other team's goalie during the first period, wich was a nice surprise. We was treally doing our thangs correctly last night. I knew it was going to be easy in game 1, but now it gets a bit tougher. Very interesting to see how our club responses on these tricks.

What was "unsafe" in your opinion that would warrant a long suspension? Looked like it was a late hit, but would take a lot of stones for a ref to call that and maintain any sense of consistency.

Holy smokes Trevor Moore almost killed Zdeno Chara. This kid is just something else. Brown, Moore and Kadri were beasts last night. Heck if Gauthier can actually locate a guy, we might suddenly be the blue meanies. LOL.

I knew Brown would show up for the playoffs, he does not want to get traded or leave his hometown.

For sure. Next year will be a step back in talent but we'll be fine in the long run. I just have to chuckle at all the "have fun paying Marner" talk around the boards. Ok, I will have a lot of fun, thank you very much!

The Bruins aren't as tough as they once were in the past. A lot of their own fans recognize this as well. I think we out-hit them last year too didn't we?

 

[Sweet Leaf]

I found it



In the comments on this tweet they are saying it's too late, too high, and slew foot?


what? what? and WHAT?

Lol that is pretty late.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Maybe a tad late

 

[Kiwi]

Lol that is pretty late.

That's pretty bloody innocuous, there is no way in hell something like that deserves any type of supplementary discipline

 

[Sweet Leaf]

Ya or the punch to the head as he is thrown down

Its clear they want to rough up Willie but he responded very well yesterday.

 

[Sweet Leaf]

If Debrusk would have been injured there I’d bet the league would at least look at it.

 

[BoredBrandonPridham]

Yeah like Chara needs somebody to stand up for him. LOL he'll just pick up Moore and throw him into the crowd if he wants.

But he didn't.

I thought B's were tough? I thought when someone landed a good hit on a Leaf and we didn't have goons to go after them, we were soft compared to the B's.

Didn't Boston have more PPs than us Game 1? Kinda funny when I see people whine about the refs helping us when we had 1 PP I believe when we already had a 3-1 lead. Also kinda funny hearing Boston fans call Kadri a POS when they have Marchand on their team.

They sure turn into whiny losers when the shoes on the other foot.

what? what? and WHAT?

I mean, Kadri doesn't gain momentum for his hit until AFTER DeBrusk has passed the puck away Let's not pretend he was finishing his check.

He's playing with an edge, I'm all for it being late, high, and a slewfoot if that's what others want to think.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

The hit yesterday wasn't anything bad.

I'm saying player safety is after him.

 

[JT AM da real deal]

There is no way that is a penalty. Kadri was lining him up and everyone could see it. If league turns into the no hit league then it will lose a lot of supporters. No hit hockey is no fun for me. It is what makes hockey interesting. Otherwise it becomes a pure skill game and very boring.
