GDT: Toronto @ Montreal | 7:00pm | I don’t have a creative title.... just win

[crump]

Kings were in the middle of a brutal schedule. 2 of last 9 At home.... just started the beginning of the 2nd east coast swing in 2 weeks. Campbell, albeit the backup, gets traded then plays on new team with one practice, then expecting him to play back to back because the alternative is too brutal to consider, but here we are.

Please show me something, Leafs. I am starting to lose faith. Last night felt like a loss.

Well, it did get us back into a playoff spot. Florida and Columbus have tough matchups tonight, we need to win this.

 

[Koolboss]

Haven't been watching too many Leaf games this year, but tonight's game is a must WIN.

 

[Once]

I think we win. I hope Nylander draws back in.

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

Has every game against these donkeys this year been on the second half of a back to back?

They prefer "les anesse".

 

[Clark4Ever]

It would be nice to have Nylander back tonight.

 

[supermann_98]

Awesome can’t wait, any recommendations for anywhere to go before the game?

We usually go to La Cage but a few times we've just gone the fast food route and first head down the some of the "establishments" decked out in Leafs gear to get the party going pre-game

 

[Magic Man]

Time for Jack Campbell to put on a show for his new team.

 

[ShaneFalco]

I'm confident. Honestly I am.

Me too -the negativity by some is just unreal sometimes

 

[Palio]

Eagerly awaiting an update saying that Nylander felt good enough to meet up with the team and Campbell is starting tonight

 

[dirty stanchion]

Really hope Clifford runs Domi tonite.

Cage au sports will be packed by 5pm. Garbage food and beer are garbage too. Almost any other spot in that area is better. Only draw is that it’s in the bell centre.

 

[OVO16]

This is the 3rd time we've faced the Habs on the 2nd night of a back-to-back.

Who the hell made this schedule

 

[lottster14]

If tonight goes poorly which I hope it doesn't, "But second half of a back to back!" is no longer an excuse

 

[aingefan]

Re. thread title: something about ‘Campbell v. Habitant: May the soupiest soup win?’

Last night: not a convincing win. Hoping for better tonight. Like, full throttle.

 

[Apotheosis]

Give Campbell the start again. Liked what I saw from Clifford as well. Live and die by your elite talent, Matthews is not slowing down any time soon. Another big night offensively for the HNIC crowd.

Great, but what's the team record since then? It's all that matters, really. Just my opinion. It's exciting to watch guys pile up the points, but I want playoffs, I want to this team to advance in the playoffs.

 

[OVO16]

Can Justin Holl go back to playing like he did earlier in the season?

Dude thinks he's Drew Doughty out there with all the Puck handling. He's making way too many mistakes because ever since he got the contract, he thinks he's big-time now.

Keefe needs to have a talk with him and tell him to go back to playing the Heavy/Safe game. Being able to control the puck is nice but stop making it a #1 priority.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Didn't know Weber was on IR for Montreal. That's a break for us. Guy's a beast.

100 % agree with you. I'd rather playoffs anyday than individual stats.

Just thought that was pretty cool.

I guess I should of posted it as a thread on the main board for everyone to see. That would go over well I bet....

Chez Serge is a fun sports bar, very pro Montreal though. Plus they have a mechanical bull.

He has Prices number. Hope he takes over the scoring lead tonight against him.

No Weber and possibly no Drouin.
