Post-Game Talk: Thank Hutch

[OVO16]

It’s amazing how easy it is for defenders to stop him when he chases his useless dump in’s. A man that large should be able to run over guys. So soft!

Get Gauthier off this team.

No fire. No Compete. No physicality. Dude isn't playoff-caliber.

We already have a soft top 9 as it is. We dont need a soft 4th line C.

Petro is 6 4....

Never seen him listed taller than 6'3.

Pietrangelo is 6'2, 1 inch taller than Chabot. Sandin is 5'11, 3 inches shorter than Chabot.

That is a significant difference in frame. An enormous difference.

hmmm ok my mistake I was sure they kept referring to him as 6 4

All good.

Marner's OT winner

 

[Bagge]

If Andersen started we probably lose that game to a 5 hole goal.

Only one?

 

[TheKule]

Leafs handily won the possession battle, the xG battle, the special teams battle, the rush chance battle... and yet all I'm reading is how lucky they are to have won, all thanks to Hutch. He was great, but so was Anderson. Leafs deserved the win, and they did.

 

[Ratboy]

First statement is generally true, but he was really good tonight.

He got chances, but it felt like he just f***ed them all up. Or maybe I'm just negative tonight

 

[Muston Atthews]

Marner's OT winner

What camera is that? God damn

 

[bert]

They played well and picked up 2 points with Hutch. I'm not about to complain about anything

Lol they played well Ottawa is horrid.

Barkov injured as Panthers six-game winning streak ends

Had a collison with Weber and left the game. Needs an MRI in Toronto apparently.

That would be a huge plus if we played Florida without Barkov... that guy slaughters us every time.

If we did a legitimate rebuild we’d have one.

whats a legitimate rebuild? what edmonton did or what buffalo did?

 

[goleafsgo1990]

whats a legitimate rebuild? what edmonton did or what buffalo did?

Maybe what Pittsburgh and Chicago did? Just because Edmonton fails a rebuild for 10 years doesn’t mean rebuilds are pointless. We rushed ours because we had to BUT we still rushed it, look at our blue line for proof.

I'll give Keefe credit for the gamble of playing 4f on the last powerplay. Although, I'm not sure Marner is less defensively responsible than Barrie.

Barrie is terrible. Much better to have Marner out on the ice.

 

[Legion34]

What camera is that? God damn

I’m assuming someone’s phone

 

[LeafSteel]

Hutch finding his confidence gives Dubas much more leverage if he decides to pursue a backup.

He’s not desperate anymore, and other GM’s will know.

All in all a fine time for Hutch to have a renaissance.....

 

[BoredBrandonPridham]

Almost in a playoff spot!

For a guy who starts 77% of his shifts in the defensive zone, who doesn't get outscored when on the ice, and has a $675K cap hit on a team that is strapped, I'm hard pressed to think of an upgrade who'd cost the same or marginally less/more. Every other team in the Atlantic has a more expensive 4C. I'd love me some Goat, and surely see that some more physical play from him would be lovely, but the fact remains we have to accept what we can afford, and Freddy G is not killing us at his cost.

 

[Sundin92]

Wasn't pretty but they got the job done. 3 in a row gives them a bit more leeway.

 

[stickty111]

How about our PK under Keefe

CA/60: 81.82(5th)
xGA/60: 4.79(1st)
SCA/60: 41.93(4th)
HDCA/60: 13.3(1st)

How did pittsburgh do a proper rebuold that involved a dman drafted top 15 like Chabot? Hell even Keith was a second round pick from before they actually started tanking....

 

[ICBM]

It's just a gut feeling, but I trust Hutcht more than Andy lately. Kind of relief to know he was starting.

 

[Brown Dog]

Massive 2 points in a game where we weren't at our best.

 

[HomerJLeafs]

Hutch is good
the team plays good hockey in front of him and they know Hutch gonna bail them out

Barrie so bad so bad
i had enough of Jake but Barrie
not good

kapanen is so trash tho
i dont like that i hear more about his off ice shit than his goalscoring etc
he looks disinterested and lost
no good vibes with him
none

i loved when Keefe sent out the big4
nice
i love Keefe
