So can we get the double check out? Like why is it alright for Wingels to even go in for a check on marner when he is already checked and pinned by Chara.
Hey I love what Andersen's capable of but we can't ignore that we got a goalie on the bench with a 11-5-1 W-L and a .934 SV%. It certainly wouldn't be the first time a backup has come off the bench and propelled a team.I hope so. Andersen is like a bernier caliber goalie. He has okay numbers but can really deflate the team at times
Well there's a difference between what Andersen's capable of and what he's been doing this past month. McElhinney deserves a look if Andersen can't get it together tomorrowHey I love what Andersen's capable of but we can't ignore that we got a goalie on the bench with a 11-5-1 W-L and a .934 SV%.

The refs missed calls on both teams. The refs allowed this game to get out of hand. Results may still be the same but we would not be looking at a Kadri suspension and Wingels would be heathly. Refs are fully to blame for these outcomes.
There is literally not one example of this happening.
In fact its quite the opposite. The team has OFTEN stepped up and given Freddy a bunch of goals to work with when hes not perfect. That is the opposite of "deflating". And for every game they did that, theres two where Freddy saved their bacon, as a goaltender should.
The standard this board holds goaltending to is ridiculous. Goodness!
it sure looks great compared to his .914 career sv% in the playoffs. that's pretty underwhelmingNo, what is ridiculous is that these boards think .918SV is elite. It’s not.
He has had a very up and down season and sadly right now he’s on a downswing. He’s been awful for over a month.
Agree but it's a little chicken or the egg situation. If refs had a better handle to we still get Kadri blindsiding wingels?or Kadri should have been more responsible for his actions as well as the refs doing their jobs properly. just a thought.

By the regular season's end, I've come to realize that Freddy is slightly overrated by this fanbase.No, what is ridiculous is that these boards think .918SV is elite. It’s not.

okay. let's put it this way.
according to Naz he saw the elbow, and was committed to the hit.
so if the ref were to blow the whistle was naz prepared to not hit Wingles? there wasn't really a lot of time between the elbow and the hit. (I could be wrong).
also. Naz got away with almost kneeing Wingles. he was lucky getting away with that.
Seriously, I've had enough of refs ignoring bullshit like this. Presumably #BecauseItsTheCup?So can we get the double check out? Like why is it alright for Wingels to even go in for a check on marner when he is already checked and pinned by Chara.

So you're blaming last night on the goalie?
I don't think he gave them a chance to be honest. He wasn't the Andersen we've seen a lot this season and he'll need to be a lot better if the Leafs are going to make it a series.
It's pretty rare you can win a playoff series without good to great goaltending.
If we're getting October/March Andersen in the next couple games.. it won't be a long series.
