GDT: New Jersey @ M*A*S*H* (aka Leafs) | Nov 8 | TSN | 7:30est | Honouring Greatness

[Mikeyg]

berny is innnnnnnnnnn, lets run these depleted devils down to the ground

 

[BonMorrison]

Woooooo!!!! Felt like a year. LETS GO BOYS, GLG!!!!!!!


P.S.
The video features Kuli, OVI, Kovi, and Malkin, from the guys I recognize.

This should be our pre-game song.

Hahahaha - this is so awkward.

Really hope Kulemin makes the Olympic team, he must have some good leeway though with being invited to do this video and being Malkin's BFF.

 

[bobbyflex]

the wait is over!! feels like Christmas morning....

GLG

 

[The Reaper]

Well, if the Leafs are characters from M*A*S*H then we all know who Kessel is

 

[TootooTrain]

Well, if the Leafs are characters from M*A*S*H then we all know who Kessel is

Has KesselLooksLikeRadar posted in this thread yet? His presence is needed!

 

[FlareKnight]

What if JVR sucks at center, then what ?

Then we try Lupul who says he's played some center. If that doesn't work then try Raymond who played some center for the Canucks. Just keep trying options until something works.

 

[Pitt the Elder]

Go Leafs gooooooooo! I still haven't forgotten the early 00's...

 

[Penalty Kill Icing*]

The "Military guy" is back.

Scotty Newlands ‏@scottynewlands 1m

I'm very happy to be returning to the ACC to sing the anthems for the Leafs' Remembrance Day service. I'll be sporting my "movember-stache"!

 

[Leaf Rocket]

leafs need to win this if we can show a good game tomorrow against the bruins.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Scotty newlands ‏@scottynewlands 1m

hell yea!!!

 

[GifKing*]

Go Leafs gooooooooo! I still haven't forgotten the early 00's...

Ponikarovsky was a good guy. He use to cut my parents grass all the time. As well as the following 3 houses. Workhorse.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Anything but 2 points in this game is an utter disappointment .. Particularly because NJ played last night

Let's go boys .. Work past the injury bug!

 

[The Missing Piece]

is the song saying Shia Labeouf?

 

[Peasy]

Lets win this. The devils are brutal and have nothing really to look forward to for the years to come with no first rounder this year.

 

[garyjones93]

Holy ****, Holy ****






















There's actually a game on today, can you believe it.

 

[Canada4Gold]

So Bernier starts.

iirc Reimer has always played well against New Jersey. Wasn't he like the 1st star in every Toronto/New Jersey game last year?

Kinda wish Reimer got Jersey, and Bernier got to see the Bruins, but it's no big deal. Reimer has the playoff history against the Bruins so that works too

 

[Asif16*]

I wanted bernier to start against the bruins. Mainly because of his better rebound control.

Bruins are a team that feasts on rebound chances.

 

[ConnorTO]

kinda nice Reimer against Bruins cause of you know

rematch

 

[Leafidelity]

Gotta smash a bottom feeder to get the confidence up for Boston tomorrow. Hopefully they stop playing down to the bad teams tonight.

 

[Canada4Gold]

just looked it up Reimer is 4-1-1 in 6 games against New Jersey with a .934 sv% giving up 12 goals(so roughly 2.00 GAA, there was an OT game and a couple seconds he was off the ice in another game, didn't want to bother with the math).

That includes 3-0-0 last year with a .967 sv% giving up just 3 goals in 3 games, and getting 1st star in all 3 games.

Would have preferred he started

Did it work out for him when he played against the Sens earlier this season?

Bernier deserves this start after his performance in Calgary and the fact that Reimer lost on Saturday. Easy decision for Carlyle.

My best guess at the lines and pairings.

[Leafidelity]

With the HHOF ceremony and Remembrance Day scheduled in this one, I don't expect puck drop till around 8:00

 

[zeke]

just looked it up Reimer is 4-1-1 in 6 games against New Jersey with a .934 sv% giving up 12 goals(so roughly 2.00 GAA, there was an OT game and a couple seconds he was off the ice in another game, didn't want to bother with the math).

you really don't have to look it up.

Reimer has those kinds of stats against most teams in the league.

 

[Paradoc]

I'd really like Reimer to start tomorrow game to get his revenge against the bruins, but I don't think its a good idea. They really exposed his weakness in game 7, so I would try Bernier tomorrow if he plays well tonight.
