Post-Game Talk: Pretenders get a shutout victory

[Sniper99]

So many god damn idiots on the main board LOL. Christ.

**** em.

 

[Jozay]

Rielly is absolutely one of our leaders on and off the ice. He's got to be in contention for that C.

Rielly getting the C confirmed.

Again, you might have a different idea on who outplayed who but I think you'd find the majority think we outplayed the Jets.

The second game really stands out.

Leafs out possessed them, outshot them, out chanced them, and out scored them.

I'm not sure what his definition of "outplay" is.

Rielly getting the C confirmed.

Over Hyman's dead body.

Other than a great win to celebrate I think I'm developing a healthy "hate" for Patric Hornqvist. Never have I seen so many borderline hits in one game and the guy somehow has a grand total of 0 minutes in PIM this season. Nasty player.

 

[Liminality]

Good things happen when Babs hasus engaging and being pro active. I liked the game as well, was entertaining but I think at the same time Pits was pretty flat and disjointed if not rattled by the end.

That's always the part we don't know. Off night for the Pens or the Leafs doing a good job of neutralizing and shutting them down? I feel like they had the puck but didn't do much with it.

He's been a POS for years.

Oh I'm 100% with you. Hated Hornqvist for a while now. He hunts players in vulnerable positions and tries to create space for Crosby or other stars.

“Your” opinion may be valid, or maybe “you’re” wrong.

Game 1 vs Winnipeg
CF: 59
CA: 60
CF: 49.58
Scoring chances: 31-28 Leafs
High danger: 19-15 Leafs

Game 2 vs Winnipeg
CF: 50
CA: 40
CF% 55.56
Scoring chances: 28-19 Leafs
High danger: 13-5 Leafs

But we were severly outplayed by the heavy team.

 

[Alamo Leafer]

habs lost
sens got run over
bruins losing LOST to the preds in the 2nd period

Leafs take revenge of a shutout with shutout but score more goals

whats not to like

Update.
+ Refs lost in Pittsburgh
+ Leafs cause rift in Kessel/Malkin relationship

 

[thewave]

Rielly getting the C confirmed.

That would be ok. I don't like when the best player just gets the C. Rielly is a pretty diplomatic, likable guy but he has had more passion on the ice this year. He needed to find that and I am glad he has it now. Boy no longer

Leafs Won

Habs

And an extra hour of sleep...

 

[leburn98]

Please look at this - so funny

I always liked how the first instinct of a hockey player, when the opponent has the puck stuck in their equipment, is to loosen the puck by driving him to the ice .

In the first game we had a 3-0 lead going into the 3rd. It's partially due to score effects. The team behind will take more risky chances and results in more shots on net.
We were ahead by chances by a decent margin before the 3rd period.

The D was playing as a group. Very quick set plays to go tape to tape and outlet pass.

In position quicker than usual, and a few plays they would read and 'catch' the penguins by surprise.

Babcock outcoached Sullivan, Majorly.

To my eye it was a bit of both. We were definitely active and pressuring them. We made good use of our speed where needed but didn't get caught up into some free for all pond hockey BS. I would say we played disciplened pro hockey vs a good team that was not quite ready for the game we brought.

 

[dirty stanchion]

I don't know why so many ill informed so called hockey fans, say the Leafs have terrible Dmen.

As a unit, I thought they were all on point tonite. Smart decision-making and strong physical play when need be.

Dermott in particular was solid, he looks like a speedy winger at times.

 

[Liminality]

Good night for Tavares.

Seems to me that the extra hour of sleep will be pissed away with our celebrating. No?

Not loving Oz, but Dermott can hold things down.

Were a better team with Holl IMO.

[Duffman955]

Anderson in form

 

[CanadasTeam]

No, but this game doesn’t negate all of Babcock’s warts this season?
