teams (good/bad/inbetween) all need to know how to win 1-0 games.
Montreal/NYR had a 1-0 game.
the game winning goal was a beaut, of what i call a "you can't even be angry."
Leafs score 1 goal, and were playing well (i was surprised that we were outshot by thatmuch because it didn't feel like it). 2 fluke goals. and now it's "everyone else should have scored?"
no. you stop those softees. especially when you know your team is having issues scoring. that's what #1 goalies do at crunch time.
not blaming him, not even mad at the game. the first puck totally dipped (you could see Reimer explaining it to Bernier). but the 2nd one was a def. spock eyebrow.
They are supposed to win 1-0, 2-1 games. Did you not get the memo?. Win the right way. Unfortunately Bernier had other ideas.
Just Let. It. Go. You two.
I almost feel like we shouldn't trade anybody this year. I mean, why not stick with this group who we know can't win as opposed to risking some hungry Marlies players stealing a few games?
People are allowed to discuss things they feel like discussing on a message board.
Yep, we may have not agreed. But I thought it was cordial. That's all one can ask for.
It wasn't very nice of Bernier to blame the fans on his lapse in concentration.
I don't know, seems like Bernier is beating himself up over this. One thing is for sure, you have to be mentally tough in a place like Toronto with these type of fans.
I just keep thinking as bad as it is it is only getting worse. They will draft a kid that will be years away and next year the Leafs will be Buffalo. They are so many years away it is not funny. We are looking at 2020 as the eta to respectable. I do not remember a lower point.

So basically it is by complete fluke if you win 1-0. Regardless of goalie, it doesn't happen much at all. The goalies picked were the top 20 in sv% going into tonight. So really, no, they shouldn't be expected to win 1-0
Incorrect list. Dubynk has won 1-0. And Price has won twice.

Wow so much more time to spent with family, catch up on TV shows and finish some old PC games
* NEW * Toronto Maple Leafs Schedule for 14/15 season:

July 1, 2015 @ 12:00pm Leafs vs UFA season begins
I wish we could just skip to the next October, except maybe for the above dates...
Why do I feel like we will lose those days too?
this is the funniest year ever in leaf land. Watching the Leafs burn out this bad means theyll HAVE to make moves and do something big for once. I want to see the coach gone, the players, the GM. Change up the training staff as well.
This is Leaf land so not necessarily. Any other franchise yes.this is the funniest year ever in leaf land. Watching the Leafs burn out this bad means theyll HAVE to make moves and do something big for once. I want to see the coach gone, the players, the GM. Change up the training staff as well.
Yep they tried to revert back to their old (winning) ways and still got burnt.I'm surprised any media can say the Leafs deserved better in this game. They did get sunk by bad bounces, but they were back to almost being outshot by double again. Over 40 shots against is not a good way to try and win.
